It is not uncommon to see stranded tourists on the north side of Ambergris Caye trying to find a gas station.

"We've had tourists come to the resorts we work with begging us for gas because they can't find a gas station or get in touch with their golf cart rental company," says Aaron.

Does the golf cart rental have a service team?

Travellers can get stuck not only because of a lack of gas. Golf cart rental takes a beating. They are used daily for months during the busy season.

If anything happens, like if you run out of gas," says Aaron, "you call one of our guys and we'll come and help."
