    I would suggest Belize.  We did the zip line excursion there in mid-July and had a great time.  We booked it thru Carnival.  There's less to do in both Belize and Honduras so those would be where I'd suggest considering it.  In Honduras, there'd been an accident last year, so I was leary of doing it there.  In Belize, it seemed very safe and the guides were thorough.

    Me, My husband and 19 year old son will be doing the zip line in Belize, in fact that is one of the reasons we chose this itinerary so we could do the zip line in Belize. I have heard it is lots of fun

    Re: zip line anyone?

    we loved to zipline but beware of "action boys" in Belize...we were put on a vary old bus given a bottle of water and told to "make it last" The zipline people lossed our pictures and action boys didn't stand up for us at all.. after finding out they had lost our pictures all they would have had to do is take us out and get another pictures. Even if not on the line at less in our gear..(we even said we would pass on the caving to get the pictures and not hold the others up.) all Donald said was "I can't charge you to zipline again.... one of the picture taker said he thought it may have been on his chip cause he thought we were with the other group...But even after trying to tell Donald nothing was said or done. we were told to get on the bus and go across the ground to go caving or we would miss the ship... Then there was a person in the water taking our pictures so we thought the day wasn't a total loss we would buy a picture of us caving.. guess what the picture taker was from the "resort" not the ship and you guessed it we didn't go to the resort..

    Donald even "made a mistake" and tried to over charge us by about $200.00 after we got on the old bus but we had a computer printout of what he had e-mailed us on what we owed.. Be aware.. stay away from them..Price is good, sound good but we got just what we pd. for. We didn't even get a sorry from Donald and Donald was the owner. Again do the zipline and if possable do the caving you will love it but just not with action boys...BEWARE!!!!!

    Re: zip line anyone?

    you hang on to this handle like thingy that is attached to this big thick cord-like wire that hangs over top beautiful areas such as rainforest and such.  You ever seen that reality show on CBS called The Amazing Race?  They usually have to go on these to get their new clue.  Your legs are dangling and you just zip downward to the next pedistal.  Sounds like a blast to me!

    Re: zip line anyone?

    nicknack , I was on that bus too, and it was not old. It was a great adventure. How can you blame Donald for your pictures? You should be ashame of yourself for doing some thing like this. I am sure that everyone on the bus had a great time. We were the largest group on the bus. There is no way we can thank Donald for arranging this tour for us. I saw you wining and that was very rude of you! Donald tried for you and your family. You should thank him for that. He is a great guy with a high level of understanding. I will alway recommend Action Boys Belize to all because they are great and are really fun to be with.
    God over all!

    Re: zip line anyone?

    I am sorry to hear about your pictures. I have to say  that I have used the service of actionboysbelize.com and they are the best. Donald is a fun person and he is well connected. I will always use their service because they are the best that Belize has to offer.

    That is OK  for you to like him but we weren't happy but like I said we had a good time. But after I post this I got this from Donald... Would you be happy..

    God knows you are wrong about this. It was not our fault that they lost you pictures. You can find it in your heart to write some thing negative like this about us:
    we loved to zipline but beware of "action boys" in Belize...we were put on a vary old bus given a bottle of water and told to "make it last" The zipline people lossed our pictures and action boys didn't stand up for us at all.. after finding out they had lost our pictures all they would have had to do is take us out and get another pictures.

    You are so wrong and GOD WILL PONISH YOU FOR THIS! Remember that you are a mother. You shouldn't do sick things like this. HOW COULD YOU? Do you feel like you have accomplished some thing by doing this? GOD DOESN'T SLEEP.
     
    AND YOU WILL REMEMBER ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
