X-Stream Cave Tubing & Zipline

Anyone used these guys? I see a lot of posts for other guides but very few recent reviews for this company. They sounded good to me so I put a deposit down. Can someone who's taken this tour reassure me that I made the right decision? We booked through Island Mkg. Belize:confused:

We did the X-treme Cave tubing in Oct. of 2007 and were very happy with our experience. We only did the caves, though, not the zipline. We researched the company carefully, and it was always well reviewed. Our driver and guide (M&M) was very personable, professional and funny. We first took a drive through the city of Belize, then out into the countryside. Take the time to look out the windows of the bus, you'll see a world far removed from what you are used to. You take a short walk through the jungle to get to the first caves. You carry your own tube, but it's no problem. tip: along the trail, don't stand in one spot for too long. There are these tiny little fire ants that are only too happy to scoot up your leg and bite. Two of my relatives got bit, they said it burned a little. I kept shuffling my feet! The caving experience is amazing. The water, in Oct. was cool, but not cold, I never shivered. Our group was not linked together in a "chain" like some others, we were allowed to float freely. However our guide was always right there watching over us. I can't swim, but never felt unsafe and I had a great time. If you bring a camera, make sure it's waterproof, and preferably, has a flash. I'm sure you'll have a great time, and rest assured you are with a reliable company.
