CaribbeanBound Posted March 21, 2015 Author #101 Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Nikkibird... chamima is right and advice is good. If Belize Cruise Excursions knows you're arriving by ship it won't be a problem, although they might choose to change the group meeting time. You won't be the only one from the ship on that excursion. Have fun! Relative to getting a tender from the ship, I highly recommend you get in line at the place the ship is passing out tender tickets at --- at least 30 minutes before the announced ticket distribution start time (ie if they say tickets will be available at 8am then be there no later than 730 am) --- and make sure your entire group is ready to go ashore.

Hi CaribbeanBound and Chamima...thanks for the suggestion. I have email Belize Cruise Excursions / Island Marketing twice now and have not received a reply. At this point I am not impressed with them and think I booked with the wrong tour company :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaribbeanBound Posted March 26, 2015 Author #103 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'd give it at least a week. I find that a lot of tour companies in the Caribbean place a very small priority on email and websites --- to our chagrin. If you don't hear from them, make new arrangements and then cancel the original booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaribbeanBound Posted April 3, 2015 Author #106 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Yes, our first day at sea (Saturday) and the night we left San Juan early (Wednesday) were formal nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergowans Posted June 4, 2015 #108 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Absolutely excellent review. Thank you so much, for a first time cruiser you have answered so many questions I had but never wanted to ask! Sailing the Med in June 2015 and couldn't decide what ship but looks like it might be Equinox after your review. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arscar Posted August 25, 2015 #112 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Great review. Can anyone share info on tours appropriate for handicap? He is most comfortable with scooter, can walk short distances with cane, but nothing strenuous. Would love to see locks and or canal but can this be done?
