Rare crewsweeper Posted August 8, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Cave-tubing. Mayan ruins (Altun Ha via private or ship excursion; Xunantunich via ship excursion; some folks like to head to Lamanai but its generally available only via private excursion and runs risk of missing ship on return). Snorkeling off the reef or one of the cayes (via ship or private). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familycruzr Posted August 8, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 8, 2014 We did a combination zip lining and cave tubing. I would highly recommend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted August 8, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 8, 2014 If you really like to snorkel, don't miss the opportunity to go to the Barrier Reef (2nd largest in the world). :) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1midsun Posted August 8, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Xunantunich via ship excursion We did this one, there were others offered through the ship but this was the only one that said that we may be able to climb the ruins weather dependent. The weather was good so we did get to climb Amazing experience!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missypriss19 Posted August 8, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 8, 2014 We have done cave tubing combo 4x4 excursion through cavetubing dot com. Had a great time. And we did a wonderful excursion through Eco tours where we took a plane to paradise island and went snorkeling at shark ray alley and the reef. It was an unforgettable experience.

gardiner41 Posted September 14, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Cave-tubing. some folks like to head to Lamanai but its generally available only via private excursion and runs risk of missing ship on return). ). Sorry this is just not true. We went to LAmanai on an NCL excursion in January. IT was excellent and the only ship excursions we have done in a long time. This January we will be in Belize again. This time on a Celebrity ship. They also offer the Lamanai Tour. Every one I know who has taken this tour has loved it. It came highly recommended to us and we now recommend it to others.

JimAOk1945 Posted September 15, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 15, 2014 We took a tour to Lamanai through Royal Caribbean. It was fantastic. Considering the distance involved, a cruise line sponsored tour is highly recommended. If you have time, you might enjoy seeing the slide show my wife made with some of her pictures and placed on her website. The link below with take you there.

rover68 Posted February 20, 2015 #13 Share Posted February 20, 2015 We took an early tender and sat on right side to see the lighthouse which was smaller than I expected. We arranged a combo of city/country and rum factory tour from F&A tours for $25/person. There were 4 in our group and Modesto was very knowledgeable. We learned minimum wage there is $2.50/hour and 11% unemployment rate. Our guispoke British English so needed to concentrate. He recommended the Three Barrel rum which was much smoother than One Barrel promoted in Fodors guide. It was interesting to see the old equipment and the current bottling process. You pay $1 for 2 shots to taste test. we crossed the Swing bridge which is hand cranked by six men. Belize city has narrowest Main Street in the world. The roads were rough. All schools are private and education is important. We were there on 2/10 and weather was great. We planned tour of Mayan ruins in Cozumel and so opted to learn about the Area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have a link or other information on them? I've searched using "F&A", "F and A", and "FandA" tours in Belize... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
