baltodave Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hi all, We're taking Rhapsody in late January to Costa Maya, Belize, Roatan and Cozumel. We are set for Costa Maya (Maya Chan), Roatan (Monkey/Sloth Hangout), and Cozumel (Nachi Cocom). Any recommendations for an excursion in Belize that won't break the bank? Or should we stay on the ship? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2mybugs Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Do something that will take you cave tubing. It was really cool to see old cave painting and in addition you do a great shirt hike. We did this with a zip line adventure... It was 4 years ago and I don't know if the company is even in business now. The ship offered a cave tubing one only at the time. I think there are also some pyramids you can get to, but the travel time is super long and you don't get very long there. Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't but we were in Belize a while ago I did look in my email and find my info from 2015 but they might not still be good... Didn't look at reviews. https://cavetubing.bz.

WAAAYTOOO Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 We did cave tubing in Belize many years ago and it was fun. The water is very cold and it is a bit of a hike and we, at least, were required to carry our own tubes. I probably could not do this excursion now due to being less agile and, well...just being older now ! My daughter was visibly blue when we got finished with the tubing. She was so cold the entire time ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiny260 Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 We were there in 2014 and did the cave tubing, but can't find the link, think we might have booked it through royal. The cave we were in didn't look like the pictures on your link, it was fun, I would do it again if we ever get back to Belize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChessE4 Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 We did the cave tubing through RCI (in 2017). You can probably save a few $$ through a 3rd party, but given that you are in Belize, I prefer to trust RCI with their guarantee to get me back to the ship. It was OK. There is a short hike while you carry your tubes, and the jungle is interesting. There were showers/lockers for changing to dry clothes afterwards. Moderate exercise to get into and out of the tubes. Not as breath-taking as the Amazing Secret River near Playa del Carmen. We got lunch with our tubing adventure. A bit of a bus ride to and from the site, but the guide gave us a brief history lecture. I do recall one bad joke -- a BMW in Belize is "a Belizian Man Walking". Have fun on your trip!

RRBK Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 We did this excursion through Shore Excursioneer. It is a river boat ride and Mayan ruin excursion. It was very interesting and fun!
