Excursion sur le rivage : tubing dans les grottes et aventure tyrolienne depuis la ville de Belize

Je n'ai pas pu y assister car le voyage était à Belize City et je ne savais pas à l'époque que j'avais réservé ce voyage que nous serions à 5 heures de route. Soyez plus prudent que moi pour ceux qui réservent.

I am woefully late in writing this review of the tour we took in late August this year. Our tour guide was Paul (Rivero?). When you book this tour be sure to ask for him - he is the best tour guide on the island!Instead of boarding a tour bus at the cruise port with 50 other people the four of us (me, adult daughter and 2 grandsons) got into Paul's SUV and we on the road and at the river before the big buses probably even left the cruise port! We grabbed equipment and walked the path to the put-in point, crossing the river three times on the way. Prepare to be wet even before you get on to your tube! Paul was kind enough to carry my tube for the second half of the hike as he could see I was getting winded.Paul tied our tubes together and floated us down the river, pointing out interesting things along the way. Once we exited the cave we kept floating for quite some time on the shallow and very serene river. The cruise ship busloads of people who would follow us much later had to exit the river at the very end of the cave and didn't get the entire experience we got with Paul.After we floated we headed for the zipline. I was traveling with 10 and 12-year old grandsons who I am thinking are getting too old to want to keep traveling with Grandmom for much longer. I am a large woman and was hoping there might be a weight limit on the zipline which would give me an excuse to wait for them at the end. But no such luck! So this large lady strapped into a harness and zipped through the forest with them. The guides were very friendly and attentive. They don't mention weight, they refer to it as "momentum". By the end of the thrilling experience I realized it is not my grandsons who are getting too old, it is me!After these two aspects of our tour we asked Paul if he would stop at a local restaurant where we could taste some local specialties and he was happy to oblige. He brought us to a little place on the side of the road where I would never have considered stopping if I were on my own. We had a delicious meal and tasted the local beer before Paul brought us back to town where we could do some souvenir shopping before getting back on the ship.Note: bring money to tip the zip-line guides and be sure to give a generous tip to your driver!

We enjoyed our ziplining and cave tubing very much. My husband and I had our 11 yr. old granddaughter with us. We personally would have preferred a more challenging zipline as we have done it before. However, since this trip was mostly for our granddaughter, it was the perfect adventure for her. Ellsworth was so patient with her very talkative and inquisitive self! Thank you Ellsworth for the great pictures and video you took of us zip lining since the place didn't allow us to bring our camera or phone for pic/videos. Because of you, we have both! Most of all, we really appreciate you arranging for us to pick up food delicious food at that! to eat on our very fast trek back to the ship!!! We were so hungry after the full day and this was very much appreciated.

Our tour was amazing!!! Our tour guide was nothing but spectacular. He went over and beyond to make us feel comfortable and to enjoy our excursion. The ziplining was very exciting! Zipping over the rain forest and river. The cave tubing was also over and beyond our expectations.

This was great! The waters of the river for the cave tubing were very low and Gerson "G", was excellent! He went above and beyond! The zip lining was also great! The guys were wonderful helping you the entire way. Many steps for zip lining and a mile hike for tubing, so you need to be ready.

Family owned business. Fantastic service. One of the best shore excursions we have ever had.
