Just return from our cruise and our stop in the City of Belize. We took an off-shore excursion to zip lining. We contact Donald Ramirez from zipbelize@yahoo.com. Donald did a great job for our group of 20 (great cost for the package bus, tour and lunch). He was waiting for us at the terminal #1 when we tendered in from our ship. Donald will give you a great history of the Belize area. Donald will accommodate you any way you ask him too. We ask him to put some beer and water on the bus for our excursion and he accommodated us at his cost (even if he forgot the bottle opener). Thanks again Donald and if you looking to the Zip Line in Belize or even cave tubing - Donald Ramirez is your guide. Have a great trip Ted/JulieWisconsin.

We had just completed our 7th cruise (the first and last with NCL, but thats another story) and before we left, we read this particular positive review about Donald. I corresponded with him via email and gave him the date that I would be in Belize. He was there as promised waiting patiently as NCL was really bad about letting passengers, not booked through their exursions, off last. Donald loaded us up in his air conditioned, clean Ford Explorer and took us to the cave tubing and zip-line tours. He is very knowledgeable about all things Belize and has a lot of contacts. He included a great lunch for us and went out of his way to assure us a great time. We saved about $25.00 per person than the ship's tour and had a relaxing, fun-filled day with no lines and personal service. I recommends Donald for anyone going to Belize by cruise ship or otherwise and want want to try some of the excursions.

`Our family was in Belize for 4 days. We were on Ambergris caye at the Captain Morgan resort. The services were great, but best of all was hooking up with Donald. This young man is a real cool person.

We booked to following tours with him. Beer and the City., Maya Ruins Of Altun HA, Cave Tubing, zip Line and Belize Zoo. I know we had bad timing,but he went out of his way to accommodate us. He is very polite with children and is very good at what he does. We had a time of our life in Belize, thanks to Donald. The kids and still talking about him to relatives and friends.

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND DONALD

My family and friends were on the Glory cruise of the Western Caribbean. The Belize Port was the most interesting. It was 13 of us in our group and were interested in doing a private tour of ALTUN HA MAYA RUINS, BABOON SANCTUARY, AND CITY TOUR. We booked the tour through Don of ziplinebelize.bravehost.com . We were instructed by Don to meet him at the exit of terminal # one , and he was there waiting. I loved the way he introduced himself. It was perfect English. Before we boarded the van he explained the day's activities and asked if there is any thing we would like to change or add to the day's activities. We were all ready to have a great time . We boarded the Van and went on our way. Don was narating the history as he drove the van through the city. The drive to Altun ha was an hour. the road was not bad . When we got to the site we had a short restroom break and head on to the site. Don was very good with the history of the site. He also added presentations on medicinal plants. After Altun Ha we head on our way to the sanctuary and made a stop for lunch. The lady who prepared our lunch was Judith. I don't know what she did to that RICE AND BEANS, but it tasted so Good.after lunch we continued to the sanctuary and there Don introduced us to Shane. Shane is with the Action Boys Team. He took us through the trail in search of the Howler Monkeys. He explained every thing to us . he was also very good.I need to say that the Belize port was the best of all th port. We had a great time. Our time was well managed. We also had time to do some shopping and walk around Town for a while with Don.This was great services and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND DON FOR HIS GREAT SERVICES. If you want to have a time of your life in Belize you should do it through Don. His email: zipbelize@yahoo.com His website: http://www.ziplinebelize.bravehost.com

The zip line was not scary. you don't even have to climb for the first platform. you walk up a stairs. It was great, and the best experience. you will noy regret it.

We were on the Enchantment of the seas and did the Maya Ruins Of Altun Ha with Don. He was very good with the maya history and has a deep passion for his people. The drive to the site was an hour and as Don drove the van he narrated the history of his people to us. The site was awesome. I love the climb to the top of one of the temples. After the tour of the site we headed back to the City. On our way we stopped at the brewery and Don worked out a MAGIC for us. He managed to get us a tour of the brewery, and after the tour of the brewery we were taken to the brewery bar and were allowed to drink as much beers as we liked free of cost. The beers were better than that we had in Costa maya for sure and hope to do this again. Don is the best, and he knows what he is doing.

We highly recommend him.

My family and I were in Belize for our vacation and were staying at the Radison Hotel in Belize city. The hotel was great, but their tours cost too much so we booked tour activities with Donald Ramirez. We did the following tours with him: MAYA RUINS OF ALTUN, CAVE TUBING AND ZIP LINE, RUINS OF XUNANTUNICH, AND LAMANAI. His prices were cheap and the services were great.

The visit to Belize turned out the be the best. Thanks to Donald who had given us the best of his kind services.

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM

My wife and I just return home ( Tampa ) after a week vacation in Belize. We were at the Best Western Hotel just a few miles out of Belize City . It was quiet and comfortable. We got Donald's information from this site and it was very helpful to my self and my wife. We spent four day with Donald doing some very exciting tours around Belize. Donald is a very polite guy and is flexible in every way. Donald made our stay in Belize a great experience and we are thankful. We are happy to share the wonders of a far away country that once to our eyes didn't exist. Donald made our vacation great and we "RECOMMEND HIM FOR HIS GREAT SERVICES."
