Took my adult daughters on this excursion. It was a great way to experience a lot in one day! Our tour guide, Paul, was great and very knowledgeable. He shared lots of info on Belize and actually did the cave tubing part as our guide. We stopped at cute little road-side restaurant for lunch and beverages. Delicious! And he finished our afternoon with a stop for at the BELIZE letters for a photo-op! Highly recommend!
Our tour guy Darrien (hope I .spelling it correctly) was amazing and so professional. Will definitely ask for him again. Great day and amazing activities!!!
