We arrived on the Carnival Valor and booked this tour via the internet before we started the cruise. On arrival at the dock they were easy to locate and very friendly, quickly whisking you off to your aircon bus....They guides entertain you on the 45 min drive to the caves making time pass very quickly. In the water the guides... more

We went in caves in Belize with Dennis Perez' group. Rudi was our guide and he was a fantastic guide and person. He made sure everyone heard all the stories about Belize and had a wonderful adventure. He paid particular attention to my husband who was a little slower than the rest of the group. I recommend this group to... more

Hotel Mopan

May 6, 2008

Asked on the ferry coming back from Caye Caulker (visiting Belize from Canada) where to stay. Directed to the "Bell Cove" but my husband asked one of the police officers when we arrived - we ended up at Mopan. Front desk staff Nadine was very helpful as to where to go for a meal - directed us to 4 different... more

My husband and I stayed here for one night in between our stay at Caves Branch Lodge and joining the Slickrock group for our 4 nights on Glover's atoll. Clean rooms, decent restaurant, food choices range from very good to average. Hotel lobby has a business center where you can pay a very reasonable rate of about 9 BZ/hr for... more

Jungle Reserve
May 2, 2008

My wife and I recently retired, sold up in the UK and decided to come to Belize. We found the Orchid Garden's website and booked their 28 day TryBelize package - to give ourselves time to find our feet and somewhere to rent while our cabana was being built in a jungle reserve outside San Ignacio. The Orchid Garden Eco-Village... more

What a lovely place to stay. Doug and his entire staff, especially Beverly and Roy, were wonderful. Anything we wanted to do, Doug saw to it that we were taken care of. The room was very clean and accommodating. There was a great ceiling fan, AC and spacious shower. Over our stay, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the... more

We just returned from our cruise to Belize where we enjoyed a shore excursion with Dennis at ExploreBellizeCaves.com. This guy has it figured out! Picked us up at the cruise line terminal. He was waiting with our names on his white board. Easy ride in his air conditioned van to the tube/zip site. Our group had nine people in it.... more

What a fabulous day we had. My husband and I were met at the airport by Dennis and Timmy. Timmy was our tour guide for the day. He is very informative. He told us stories about the history of Belize on the drive to the caves. We did the zipline and then the cave tubing. All along our hike to... more

I read reviews on different sites, and decided to book a zip line and cave tubing day in Belize with Belize Action Boys. The owner is Donald Ramirez, he is a former DEA agent for the Belize government who now runs a professional touring company. Our guide for the day was David, a young man who is licensed with the... more

We stayed at Villa Boscardi our first night in Belize. Our family of four had a large comfortable and clean room with 2 queen beds. Francoise was a very friendly host and we enjoyed hearing her many stories and the places she has lived around the world. Villa Boscardi has a nice courtyard with some beautiful flowers. We spent our... more

We just got back from a 6-day cruise on Royal Caribbean, and one of the definite highlights of our trip was our cave tubing trip with Dennis from ExploreBelizeCaves.com. We booked through him online after reading all the good reviews, and I can tell you that the reviews were right on. We paid less than half of what the people... more

Best Western Belize Biltmore Plaza

Apr 22, 2008

Stopped here overnight following for flight home at the end our stay in Belize. Everything we needed for a relaxing last day. A room was ready even though we arrived early, the staff were friendly and the room was great. Lovely garden to walk round, large clean pool and excellent restaurant. more

Glover's Atoll Resort

Apr 20, 2008

The owners cannot be trusted to follow through with the guarantees made at the time of booking! If you choose to go to Glover's be wary of the money put down up front and be sure to keep track of your expenses as they are negligent in this arena. My husband and I planned a trip to Glover's Atoll a... more

Used Denis Perez for our recent Norwegian cruise and stop in Belize. First of all, the value is unbeatable. The cruiseline was offering the cavetubing/ziplining tour for $139 - Denis charged us $85 ($35 for him plus $50 for ziplining). Secondly the cruise had age restrictions of kids 10 and over (we had a 6 and 8 yr in our... more

We have just returned form a cruise vacation which took us to the port of Belize City. A friend of ours suggested Cave-tubing.com in Belize for lack of other atttractions in this port. What a great experience! The bus ride is a little long but the guides made it very entertaining. We can't say enough about the guys who run... more

Bachelor Inn

Apr 19, 2008

Although my kids thought it was a bit "sketchy", the Bachelor Inn was perfect for an inexpensive overnight stay between our scheduled flights. It was clean and safe - although the doors did have the bars over them and the cab driver was surprised that we were staying there. We had to walk about 20 minutes to find somewhere to... more

Black Orchid Resort

the black orchid resort, doug and his excellent staff provided me with the kind of vacation experience we all dream of. I was picked up at the airport in VIP style, and whisked to the beautiful riverside resort in an air conditioned van. at the resort my room was spotlessly clean , large and quiet. the pool and riverside bar... more

My family just got back from a trip to Belize, and by far the most memorable thing we did was cave tubing with Yhony. They went above and beyond what we were expecting and made it a fabulous trip. We were picked up promptly from our hotel at no extra cost. The 45 minute bus ride flew by as we... more

We stayed at this hotel for just one night before departing Belize. There are just a few hotels on the Belize City water front. I was looking for something upscale, safe, within the walking distance of the restaurants, and with secure parking. This hotel seemed to fit the bill. Almost. Belize City has but a few street signs. However, the... more

*Remember this is our impression* We just stayed at the 'resort' on Glovers Atoll run by the Lamont family and would never go back. These are the reasons why: 1. It doesn't conform to the park rules e.g. illegal fishing & garbage dumping off the back side of the island. 2. The ECO part is a full on LIE!! There... more
