Belize excursions
We will be in Belize one day on a Royal Caribbean cruise. We have
narrowed our choice of excursions down to the following two. Any opinions of these two possible excursions is welcome. (We will also be in Cozumel, where we intend to go on an excursion to the Mayan ruins at Tulum.) 1..Wildlife Adventure Tour Approximate Duration: 6 Hours Adult: 81.00 (USD)??|??Child: 75.00 (USD) Take a motor-launch ride up the Old Belize River for 20 miles. On the way look for crocodiles, iguanas, and monkeys and take in the beautifully lush tropical foliage on this varied waterway. You will make a stop at the Old Belize River Tavern for a Belize-style lunch before boarding a bus for the 35-minute bus ride to the Belize sanctuary. Here you will see all the species endemic to the region, including five types of wildcat (jaguars, pumas, ocelots, jaguarundi, and margays) as well as the national animal of Belize, the Tapir. This is a great day for those looking for wildlife. 2..Lamanai & The New River Safari Approximate Duration: 7 Hours 40 Minutes Adult: 87.00 (USD)??|??Child: 77.00 (USD) Your adventure begins after a one-hour drive from Belize City to Tower Hill, where you will board a riverboat for a 90-minute cruise of the New River, with its spectacular rainforest, mangroves, orchids and birds. Disembarking at the northern end of the New River Lagoon, you'll enjoy a Belize style lunch. Then begin your 90-minute tour of Lamanai, once the largest Mayan ceremonial site in Meso-America and occupied as early as 1500 B.C. The first stone buildings appeared here between 800 and 600 B.C. Huge masks depicting dead rulers and gods seem to materialize out of the rainforest amid the chatter of birds and the haunting calls of howler monkeys. Your guide will point out the copal and ramon (breadnut) trees, of great importance in ancient times |

Belize excursions
We did the cave tubing in Belize thru Xstream and booked it on our own.

Belize excursions
We did the zoo, the hike and the tubing and I LOVED it, and I'm pretty much
a "lie on the beach and read a trashy novel" kind of girl. The hike was not strenuous at all, and VERY interesting! Our guide pointed out all of the different foliage, the fire ants to avoid, the bats in the cave, the markers... I highly recommend this trip to everyone! I had a ball! islandgirl "Jeff Gersten" wrote in message ... (Helen) wrote: We did the cave tubing in Belize thru Xstream and booked it on our own. Have you thought about doing cave tubing? We originally were considering 3 choices. and one was cave tubing. But then we decided to narrow our choices down to those 2. We thought it might be too physically strenuous especially the 45 minute walk which would feel even hotter after riding in an air conditioned bus. |
