BrettG Posted May 2, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2010 So I am new to the boards and cruising in general. Planning my first trip for this Dec on Royal Caribbean's Liberty OTS. Everyone seems to be raving about Cave tubing, and Major Tom's cave tubing in particular. I checked out cave-tubing dot net hosted by (Won't let me say it). Is this Minor Tom the same host as the Major Tom everyone is referencing? Is this the same cave tubing tour that is so popular here? If so, what happened to the major that the website only talks about his son? Just a little confused when everyone here says "Major" and the website clearly talks about a "Minor Tom". I may be making too much of it, but it almost sounds like a copy-cat scam using the play-on-words. Edit: Checked out more of the site. Seems like its the same people since Major Tom is in most of the pictures. So I guess my question now is, why Minor Tom and not Major? Retired, or taken over? Does the Major still host tours? Thanks.

BigRed93 Posted May 3, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Minor Tom is Major Tom's son. He's an adult now, but a young adult, and has grown up doing these tours with his dad. While the Major part of the elder Tom's name is an earned title, the Minor of his son is a play on words. Just in case that was lost in translation...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettG Posted May 3, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Ok, good. Yeah that's what I figured. It was just weird seeing everyone refer to Major Tom cruises and having their website not make mention that Minor Tom does most of the tours now. One of those things that everyone already knows so noone has to say I guess. Just wanted to make sure I was going to book with the right group. Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
