Review summary

LOVED Roatan!  Private beach was beautiful, and snorkeled for the first time in my life.  Definitely will not be the last time.  Went off-roading in Belize, which led to a cave tour.  Highly recommended excursion.  Also saw a white Jaguar in the wild along the Siboon River...how often does that happen?  Last stop Cozumel, took a boat to Playa and swam the Secret River.  Mind officially blown!  Now I'm hooked.

@prostreet1265. I agree, as my favorite place is also Roatan. Just a different "feel" about it. I'm always ready to stay there, forget ever leaving. We go there in December and also next February.

You're excursions sound awesome. Did you book through carnival? If not do you remember the name of the companies you used? I do lots of research before booking and can keep this info in mind!

Yes. We sure are going out of Galveston. :) Starting our Bon Voyage Margaritas now!

@hlynn143 if you're going out of Galveston Sunday, we'll be onboard as well.  Redoing this same itinerary, but have 3 other couples joining that have never been.  Ahoy!

We leave on this cruise this Sunday! I'm looking forward to snorkel at catamaran ride to the beach day in Cozumel. Did this last time and Have to do it again.

Planned the Secret River in May. Looks great from the pics I've seen.
