June 15, 07 - We had the fortunate experience of being able to work with Alex from Discovering Belize! We went on carnival legend from Tampa on 05/06/07 and had little interest in any of the large group commercialized shore excursions offered for the port stop in Belize. Everyone told me not to go off independently as it wasn’t safe to go on anything other than cruise excursions. I took a chance. I was not going to go to Belize without seeing the reef in an uncrowned environment. All the other snorkel trips I had taken on cruise excursions were to places that were overcrowded with swimmers and no fish. Besides, they never took us very far away from where the cruise ship docked. I emailed Alex and he got right back to me. I was a royal pain with every question in the book. I was worried about it being safe, missing the cruise ship back, taking a little commuter flight, etc...He answered every question. I booked the trip and he emailed me the itinerary and passes. I honestly have to say we had more fun than we have ever had. We took a cab from the port with an ex police officer named Steve(ask for him-he was great!) . He safely got us to Maya Island Air for our little flight to San Pedro, where we debarked and met our captain Russell with Lil' Alphonso's Snorkel Tours. He was awesome! He is a trip and very knowledgeable - like an underwater Indiana Jones! He went and touched fish to get them out of caves and tempted them with food right from his hand. We saw tons of huge nurse sharks, all kinds of fish, and very unusual creatures such as the green moray eel, and tons of huge spotted eagle rays. It was only my husband and I and one other couple. As we got individual attention all day long and then we were safely escorted back to dock where we caught our flight back to Belize City and Steve picked us up again. Our day was nothing short of amazing. Alex from discovering Belize coordinated everything perfectly. Thanks Alex for keeping us safe and letting us really see Belize! You were great!
