kyriecat Posted January 20, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I am planning a family cruise for June and several (ages 9 to mid-60s) want to try ziplining. Apparently there are several options available. In Cozumel we are going to Chankanaab Park for the dolphin encounter. I noticed that there is a ziplining course there. The prices are higher than the other stops. Is it that much better? In Belize we are using cavetubing.bz for tubing, but I found they have a combo tubing and ziplining tour. It's an additional $25 to add ziplining at Belize Zipline Adventure to the price of the cave tubing, which doesn't seem too bad a deal. In Roatan we are taking the Victor Bodden tour. We can add ziplining at Mayan Jungle Canopy for an additional $45 each. Have anyone tried 1, 2 or all 3 of the ziplines? If so, what would be best for a multi-generational group. None of us are extreme sports enthusiasts, but we're not couch potatoes either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had an absolute blast with our guide, there were plenty of lines, and we had a photographer go with us and then was able to purchase a CD at the end with our pics. Everyone we met was wonderful, and then we got to check out the animals he has there, including 4 baby monkeys! I have ziplined in other locations (though not Belize or Cozumel), and these were fun because there were so many of them and we got to learn how to do tricks/go together/etc, but not really what you want if you are looking for a long lasting zip line up high over the jungle. These you more go through the jungle/grassy area surrounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted January 22, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I think most of the zip lines in Roatan are very good. I'd skip Cozumel..No natural height. Belize $ seems to be attract, but can't speak to how good the lines are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
