JC5240 Posted January 20, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hi Everyone! I have a cruise booked on the Getaway on May 15th - May 22nd, and are in the beginning stages of planning excursions. I noticed on the NCL website that there are two different excursions for Cave Tubing in Belize City: Cave Tubing & Rainforest Trek ($109 PP) Crystal Cave Tubing ($129 PP) Can anybody give insight on the difference (besides the price and the two different caves)? Has anybody done both? Liked one better than the other? The price is only $20 difference so that's not a concern, I'm just not sure what the difference is (besides two different caves). To those that are familiar with the caves themselves, are there any major differences? The basis of both excursions are basically the same...70 minutes of travel time by bus, hiking, tubing, and lunch. I'm just wondering if there are any major differences between the two, and if you would lean towards one or the other and why. I'll also post this in the Port of Call section, as I'd love to get some insight from locals as well! Thanks to everyone in advance :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewartluzon Posted January 23, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2016 the Cave-tubing is a hike then a float thru the caves viewing the formations,the crystal cave is short floating time, walking and exploring the cave viewing the formations, requires walking on the uneven cave floor and being flexible such as to crawl to enter the room and see the crystal chamber.

splinkaone Posted January 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 30, 2016 In 2012 we sailed RCL, but we booked through cavetubing.bz we had a great time, small group and got back with plenty of time to shop a little before going back to the ship.
