History

Affectionately known as Spoodles, Mr. Lascelle Tillett has been promoting tourism and ecotourism in and around Belize for more than 40 years. His vast knowledge of Belize’s many eco-tourism destinations and attractions has earned him great respect from many local and international businesses, clients, friends and family alike.

Lascelle started his business as a taxi driver. Eventually, Lascelle, his wife Sarita, and family members started S&L Travel and Tours Company, which is now a well-known, Belizean, family-owned and operated tour company. Lascelle realized that Belize could be promoted through custom-designed special interest and adventure vacations for both Belizean and international tourists. S & L Travel continues to provide personalized tours for all their clients.

Since his youth and even to date, Mr. Tillett has visited places in Belize many of us have not yet heard of or ventured to visit! Ask him anything about Belize and you will surely get an answer.

Lascelle has many highlights in his life but you’d never hear it from him. Many years ago he was featured on the “The Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” as the guide for a newly wed couple who were the owners of the bottled water company Perrier. He is also featured in several other famous tour guidebooks including a guide book by Arthur Frommer and Handbook of Belize by Chichi Mallan.

Lascelle is an active member of the Board of Directors of the Belize Audubon Society and participates in the Society’s annual bird count. He has a keen interest in protecting and preserving the environment. He has also traveled to many countries in Europe, Asia, North and Central America promoting S & L Travel as well as Belize’s Eco-tourism destinations and what Belize has to offer.

My husband and I cannot provide enough praise about our experience with Elvira at S&L. With less than 8 weeks, Elvira designed a memorable trip that emphasized birding for me along with beach and adventure for my husband. Elvira handled all of the bookings, logistics including adding an extra tour during our trip that I requested via WhatsApp. Elvira’s experience and relationships within the industry were evident. Elvira suggested top quality accommodations and guides including expert birding guides at each of our locations. We stayed at Birds Eye View Lodge, Black Rock Lodge and Ramon’s. Our driver/guide Mr. Lecelle as he is known, is a celebrity in the tourism industry as well as the President of the Belize Audubon Society. People stopped to talk to him when they saw his van parked at lunch! We knew we were in good hands. Elvira was able to book our entire trip vial email and WhatsApp. We highly recommend booking with S&L. for a worry free fantastic trip!

We are incredibly appreciative of the friendly, punctual and amazing service. It started with a greeting at the airport and transfer to our hotel. Then we had an amazing day trip to Tikal. The day was perfect. Tickets, crossing the border, local guides, and a great driver just made the day perfect.
Thank you so much for a great first trip to Belize!

S & L travel created an amazing adventure for us in Belize! Elvira did a wonderful job combining quite a few requests for our stay. Every guide and driver was great ! They all had a deep knowledge of Belize, it’s history, culture, and natural wonders. Each place that we stayed had it’s own wonderful ambiance with great staff.

I could not imagine a better experience and would highly recommend S & L travel to anyone travelling to Belize! We can’t wait to go back!

Thank you again Elvira!

We enjoyed our visit to Belize and our foray into Guatemala to see Tikal. We much appreciated the assistance of S&L Travel and Tours. Our trip met our expectations in terms of desired itinerary, pleasant hotel accommodations and high quality guides and drivers. Our guides and drivers were pleasant and informative. They were accommodating and made us feel safe and welcome. We much enjoyed our visits to Mayan archaeological sites and also liked our visit to the Belize Zoo. We found the lunches provided to us during the course of our travels to be tasty and more than enough to fill us up. All the logistics of our trip worked out well. We had a balance of seeing the sights and having relax time. We offer our thanks to E&L for assisting us to have a great trip to Central America.
