Cancel trip they are still charging me, rip off
Did not go on trip cancel a month ago! Need my money back! This I a not fair! Cancel a month before. Spoken gentleman in was looking for transportation from Ricer bend Resirt to zip line/caves then to Placencia. Which I bekueve was $935 us. I never had an interest going back to Belize city!
Response from the operator: Thank you for bringing your review to our attention. We understand your frustration, and we want to clarify the details of your booking and address your concerns. We want to confirm that our records show you booked and paid for a Cave Tubing and Zipline Tour departing from Belize City for $437.00 USD, not a transfer to Placencia. This tour is designed to start and end in Belize City. It appears there may be a misunderstanding regarding Placencia and the $935 figure. Our phone records indicate a conversation where you inquired about transportation from Belize City to Placencia, in addition to the cave tubing and zipline tour. During that conversation, you were informed that Placencia is approximately 100 miles away from the cave tubing site and Belize City. Providing transportation to Placencia after the tour would incur an additional cost, which we quoted at $200 USD to cover the extra distance and driver time, not $935 USD. The $935 figure you mentioned seems to be related to a completely separate inquiry about transportation directly from River Bend Resort to Placencia, possibly with other services, which was never booked with us. To reiterate: You booked and paid for: Cave Tubing and Zipline Tour from Belize City - $437.00 USD. This tour was not canceled. This tour starts and ends in Belize City. We discussed optional additional transportation to Placencia at an extra cost of $200 USD, should you have wanted to extend your trip. We are sorry for any confusion and we understand that miscommunications can happen. However, based on our records, your booked tour for cave tubing and zipline in Belize City was not canceled and is still valid. Therefore, a full refund is not applicable as the service you booked was available and ready to be provided.

BE aware of VIATOR and their subcontracting company PRIVATE BELIZE ADVENTURE
The Zip line & Cave Tubing was a very interesting experience. What happened after the tour is what I am most unhappy about. We told the tour guide that our New Years Eve was open and we were interested to see the Howler Monkeys and see Alligators. Paul, the guide, suggested that he could do this and would pick us up at our hotel the next morning at 10:00AM. I told him that I would prefer 8:00AM pickup and he replied no problem. He said it would cost US$300.00, and I asked to use a credit card and he said no, US$150.00 cash deposit, which I gave him. The next morning we were ready and waiting at 8:00AM. At nine o'clock we quit waiting and went back inside the hotel to have breakfast and mentioned to the hotel desk clerk that if he comes that we'll be having breakfast. He was a no show. At 10:10AM we were finished with breakfast and there was no sign of Paul, the guide. The hotel staff said we were ripped off. Be aware that the company named "PRIVATE BELIZE ADVENTURE", Phone Number +5016023163 associated with VIATOR.COM in BELIZE should be avoided because of DISHONESTY. Jerry K.
Response from the operator: I'm sorry for what happened. To you Also, Private Belize Adventure and Viator were not aware of the second tour you book with Paul. We didn't rip you off. Saw you put my Phone Number in the reveiw and on the day Paul didn't show up you didn't call me and also on the day of the first tour. I was at the cave tubing and zip line site we spoke you didn't say anything about a second tour you wanted to do with us. We will deal with Paul and his dishonesty. Private Belize Adventure

Total Rip Off
I booked a private zipline and tubing tour for my husband and I. Due to weather and having to take a tender to shore, which we unexpected for the ship, we didn't make it to the meeting point until after the start of our tour. Now this has happened to us before, which is why I book private tours. When I called the company they said I missed the meeting time, I told them I know and told them we got there as soon as we could. Now mind you this is around 10 am. There were many tour operators offering the same tour and much later times in the day. But our operator said that since we weren't there on time we couldn't go. I am going to be calling Viator to get a refund.
Response from the operator: Hey You show up two hours after the tour started, but we didn't rip you off. When you book the tour, you didn't state that you were coming off a cruise ship. We try many times to call, text and email to see where we can meet you. Private Belize Adventure pick up guests from hotels, cruise ports and the airports in Belize. So you have not given us the right information. How can we knew where to pickup you

Jungle adventure
Our tour guides were amazing. What a fun adventurous day for the family. Bring water shoes, towel and change of clothes for comfort. Beautiful way to have some fun!

MUST DO!!! So fun!
This was our favorite part of Belize City! The sights on the zipline were gorgeous and it was timed perfectly so that we got to go tubing afterwards when we were sweaty. The guides were very patient, thorough, and knowledgeable about their craft and we felt that we learned a lot while still being relaxed on vacation. It was overall a super friendly and professional atmosphere and if we're back in Belize we'll surely be going again. Thank you so much!

Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belize City.
How much does Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City cost?
+
Prices start at $255 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belize City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Belize City is not rushed.
Is Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Belize City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Belize City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Belize City and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour: Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Belize City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Belize City?
+
On Outty we rank every Belize City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cave Tubing and Zipline Adventure from Belize City, Caves River Kayaking, Explore More with V.i.V., Altun Ha Mayan Ruins & Cave Tubing Tour with Belizean Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Belize City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Belize City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
