By Horace Palacio: The Belize Tourism Board (BTB) is celebrating “Megs” Yearwood, a visionary entrepreneur who has played a pivotal role in shaping Belize’s tourism industry since she was 12 years old.

What began as a small car rental business has grown into Barefoot Services, a premier tourism company offering vehicle rentals, luxury tours, and full vacation experiences. Through her leadership, Barefoot Services has expanded into adventure tourism, introducing cave kayaking, bioluminescence tours, and beach horseback riding in Placencia.

Beyond her business success, Megs is a mentor and innovator, dedicating her time to inspiring the next generation of tourism professionals. She frequently visits high schools, encouraging students to view tourism as a pathway to success and promoting careers in the industry.

With resilience, creativity, and a deep passion for Belize, Megs has built a legacy of service and excellence. The BTB’s recognition of her contributions highlights her impact on adventure tourism, mentorship, and community empowerment.

Belizeans are encouraged to join in celebrating her remarkable achievements by following @barefootservicesbelize on Instagram and Barefoot Services on Facebook under the #SheLeadsTourism and #WomenInTourism initiatives.
