Lamanai Tour
Just got back home after a fun vacation in Ambergris Caye. We stayed at El Pescador. This is a lovely place. The staff, the water, the dives, and all that came with the package. It was only my husband and i on this vacation. We usually travel in groups. This year was a little different. We wanted to do it all on our own.
The only problem we found was booking the tour of Lamanai. The staff at Rl Pescador refused to book us for the Lamanai excursion because it was only two of us. We were very disappointed. We took a walk downtown to try to hook up with a company that will be offering the excursion.
We visited two companies and had the same problem. They don't do the tours if they don't atlest 8 persons for the tours. We met a couple who had the same problem. A cop was passing by and I stopped him and asked him if he can assist us with booking this excursion. He told us about an X-cop who owns a tour company. He gave us only his number. We called the number and spoke to some one who identified himself as Donald. I tild him about our interest in the lamanai tour. He instructed us to board the first ferry the following morning at 7:00. The other couple joined us for the excursion. When we arrive in Belize City Donald was there witha sign. We entered his Ford Explorer and off we went.
When we arrive at the board an hour later Jason was there with fresh food, sodas, and water for us. The river cruise was very relaxing. The tour of the ruins was also great. We had a fun time on this tour and would recommend to all.
It is so sad that the hotels and resorts on Ambergris Caye will not do tours if they don't have 8 persons. I am hoping that this will change soon.
