Ladymom30 Posted February 23, 2008 #6 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hi, we are from Lexington, SC and we are going on the glory March 22 also. I am trying to book shore excursions as I am typing this. Did you guys book through carnival or online? Help.. I have never been to any of these ports. I am also bringing along my son 11 and my daughter 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineseller Posted February 24, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Ladymom, We booked our zip/tubing excursion in Belize online. It is much less expensive and the company got great reviews. It's the only excursion we are booking. Going to Chak in Cozumel and the girls will probably shop for bags in Nassau. I tried to post the zip/tubing company here but it wouldn't let post. If you want the information you can email me at smathis@sc.rr.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted February 24, 2008 #8 Share Posted February 24, 2008 You could give the name without the dot com (or just spell it out). I'm also on Glory and am researching different cave tubing trips. Have seen lots of referrals for cave-tubing dot com but I got a referral from one of our Roll Call folks that was on Miracle. They used Coral Breeze. I'm trying to read all the reviews I can find, but I'm getting really, really busy and work and need to get things booked. I like to have my plans all in place well before I sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineseller Posted February 24, 2008 #9 Share Posted February 24, 2008 We booked with Dennis from explore belize caves. I sent an email to his website which he answered and then called me at home to finalize the excursion. The whole family is looking forward to it.

Palmetto_state Posted March 4, 2008 Author #10 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The excursions you booked sound fun, we are already doing the zip-line in Cozumel. We did book the Cozumel excursion through the cruise line but went out on our own for Belize. Hopefully we will meet up some time during the cruise. We're from Greenville.

Won't be on your sailing but can tell you that you have booked with a tour professional.... Based on my personal experiences using him, Tom and his crew know there stuff and will provide you with an awesome tour you will long remember !

turs Posted March 4, 2008 #12 Share Posted March 4, 2008 We went with Major Tom this summer and had a great time. Our family of 4 was in a van with Tom Jr. and George and loved them. I have 2 teenagers and they thought the guys were very "cool." They got my husband to eat termites on the way to the river. They stopped on the way back and bought us some delicious mangoes at a roadside stand. They were jumping off of the rocks into the river with the older kids. So if you have to ride with the younger guys, don't sweat it, they were great!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voltraveler Posted March 5, 2008 #13 Share Posted March 5, 2008 My DH and I are also on Glory on 22nd with 12 year old son. Did you decide on a cave tubing company in Belize? Thought it would be nice to have kids around the same age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palmetto_state Posted March 6, 2008 Author #14 Share Posted March 6, 2008 We researched different ones for the cave tubing and just picked one, another one that seemed pretty big was cavetubing.com. They have a small clip of them traveling down the river, looks like they all tie in together by hanging on to each other. I'm sure everyone likes the one they choose because it looks as if we see good things about all of them, you just have to pick one and go with it. So just for fun, are those of you from SC Tiger fans or Gamecock fans? and no we are not some die hard fans ourselves but we are Clemson fans. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted March 7, 2008 #15 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Now I'm really confused. On another thread, I thought someone said Major Tom WAS cavetubing dot com! :confused: Anyone have a website for Major Tom (unless he is, indeed, cavetubing dot com)? OK, never mind. Did my own google search and Major Tom is cavetubing dot NET, not com). Someone needs to be a little more original when picking web domain names!

stormycat Posted March 7, 2008 #16 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Hello Palmetto state We booked with major tom on the 25th also. We have 10 in our group. My daughter is 12. We are from Greenville also but Indiana. I don't know if your son will be happy or not but there are going to be a lot of 12-13 year old girls on that ship. My daughter is chatting with them now. Can't wait to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladymom30 Posted March 9, 2008 #17 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Okay guys I booked with Major Tom, he seems like he will be safe enough. We are Carolina Fans in this family. I dont really care that much, but he other three are die hard fans. Can you believe we only have 14 days?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineseller Posted March 11, 2008 #18 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Palmetto, we are Gamecock fans and my son is a junior there. I'm sure he will be wearing his Carolina hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator22 Posted March 11, 2008 #19 Share Posted March 11, 2008 My wife & I did the caves with cavetubing.com on Feb 25th. We had a great time. More caves then the cruise ships. You do not wander aimlessly down the river , you are chained too gather. The guides do most of the work. Some people from the cruise tours where paddling in circles, bumping into walls & getting stuck in low water. Not with cavetubing.com. GREAT TIME & HALF THE PRICE !
