CAVE TUBING
We were in Belize last week, did cave tubing with actionboysbelize.com. We e-mailed back and forth, agreed on the price, they are very specific with details and what the differences can be. They were also very specific about how to find them when you get to the port, you are tendered in, but once off the tender you are funneled to 1 door. Was not a problem, we finally asked some of the other tour people and they directed us around the corner where Action Boys were standing with a sign. Due to mechanical problems with his other van Donald was our only guide that day. She is a wonderful guy. The tour started with info on Belize and the country side, the ride to the resort is about an hour. The bumpy road is not as bad as in other posts.. Nice facility to change clothes if need be. You pick your tubes up there and the walk to the river is about 20 minutes, easy walk. Time for pictures along the way. The guide from the team will have a dry bag for cameras when you get to the river. A resort dog, Lucky accompanied us on the walk. My husband was unaware that she swam the river with us and when he felt her come by him freaked out, was one of the funniest moments of the whole cruise. The one down side to this tour is that we were only in the river about 25 minutes. I understood this, the river level was higher due to rain which causes it to run faster. You arrive back at the resort, no walk. Lunch was wonderful, there is a bar for those who wish to imbibe. We got to tour the butterfly farm, very neat, and see one of the resort rooms. The resort is surrounded by the jungle, beautiful. Donald will take you to downtown Belize to shop if there is time, much cheaper then at the port. I would highly recommend this tour.
