Eight of us are coming to AC in February. This is an annual trip for us before boarding the Nekton Pilot for a week of diving. We've enjoyed doing a lot of fun things, adventures, great restaurants, etc. and have a ball except for one day. The day we get back from the Nekton trip to Belize City it is between 7 and 8 am. Our flight back to the US doesn't take off until 4 pm. The Nekton has us set up to go to the Princess Hotel and Casino for the day. We did that last year and were bored to death. My question is what would be a fun and interesting way to spend 5 or 6 hours in BC? Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Belize Zoo, Cave Tubing, Zip Line, Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary or Baboon Sanctuary come to mind and can be done in a morning (not all, individually.)

Debbo,

drop me a line:

Is the cave tubing the one at Jaguar Paw? If so, we've done it and really enjoyed it a lot. Do you know the name of a Zip Line company that is good? Who do you get to take you to these places? Just a regular taxi or is there a tour group you might recommend.

Anyone else?

I have to give my opinion via PM,

I want to avoid offending or debating, I am here to help with opinions(to answer when someone needs dental referrals, answers to importing dogs, moving here, etc) or ask questions when I need help, not to debate... so I think this is best.

There are wonderful historic sights in Belize city -
Belize City Museum - located by central bank - a MUST
St. John's Cathedral - built in the early 1800's with balast from logging ships.
House of Culture - former Governor General's residence
Baron Bliss Lighthouse
Supreme Court - the architecture takes you back in time
Maybe you can get a boat to take you on a ride up Haulover Creek and down the Burden Canal.
"Old Belize" is another popular and intresting spot.
Get a good local cab-driver-tour guide and you can have a very special day in Belize city.
David Cunningham is one of many excellent local guides.

Apparently Belikin is doing brewery tours again with a 1/2 hour of all you can drink at the end!

Errol Flowers is another good local BZ City tour guide - can do groups. 223-1613 or 606-1143

Kaz-z-k,
Not to change the subject, but where does one go to find out about bringing their pet into Belize for one month or so? We have a Lab and would rather bring him with us on vacation, instead of boarding or friends, but do not want him to have to suffer quarantine. How does it work going from Texas(IAH) to Belize & on to SP? Any info is appreciated!!
