Here in Fort Lauderdale Florida, getting hit very hard by Covid 19 , staying in watching you guys on the Carnival Dream, So much fun , thank you so much for taking me along , it’s pretty lonely here But having a great time on your cruise, I’m watching the day in Belize, Fun!
Love it!! I am counting down the days until January when we go to the Bahamas on the Dream! I watched your Louisiana Life videos and love the crawfish boil! Thank you so very much for doing these. Your family is really great!
Fantastic! We would love to go to the Bahamas but that itinerary has never been available when we cruise (spring break with the kids) but Jason & I are thinking about branching off next year with an extra cruise and maybe we can head that way! We really enjoy making these videos and have fun with home videos too. I means a lot to us to get this kind of feedback!!! :)
+bluescity1Disney yes it was fantastic!!! We agree, we always bring some aloe too. We just didn't have it with us, but we got it back on the ship. Thanks so much 😀
Ahhh I've been obsessed with your cruise videos! I started with carnival freedom because that's what I'm taking this Christmas and I'm super excited. But the itinerary is the same as this cruise series, so I shall be fully prepared when I get there! :D
ToonerBubbles hey that's awesome! So glad to hear you like the videos! We had great experiences on both of these cruises and we love sharing these! This was a nice itinerary, we had never been to Belize or Roatan and loved both!
I am enjoying all your videos of the Dream. My wife, myself, and my son who will be turning 21 in December will be taking this same itinerary on the Dream on December 24th. It will be our Christmas present and birthday celebration. Hopefully your videos will be completed before we take the cruise, LOL. Did you use Faster to the Fun and did you feel it was worth it? Thanks for your videos.
+Tom W55 so glad to hear you are enjoying the videos!!! Wow, a Christmas & birthday cruise will be great, I hear they really do it up for the holidays. They should be complete by then but may run slightly into January... we have a LOT of footage! No we do not use faster to the fun as we have two cabins so would have to buy x2. Those who use it rave about it but it is not worth the extra money for us. Happy cruising 🛳
We are on the Dream in November for our 2nd cruise! We too are going to Goffs Caye on a non-carnival excursion. I'm extremely nervous about the tender because we have never tendered before. Since we are novices at this, should we cancel and take a Carnival excursion or will the tour company get us back in time? We are going with Eco Tours. Thanks for any advice you might have for us! Wonderful videos!
+Kathy Donley-Strickler we do about half of our excursions outside of Carnival. As long as it is a reputable company you will be fine! They make their living taking cruisers on these tours so they know they have to take good care of you or they will get negative reviews and lose business. Just read their reviews (I like Trip Advisor) and these should ease your mind. We used a company called Island Marketing (I think this might actually be the same company as Eco Tours) and they did a great job! Goff's Caye is beautiful!
Oh fantastic! It is a beautiful little island and the snorkeling is just amazing!!! Here is the website we booked through: belizecruiseexcursions.com/excursion/sun-kissed-goffs-caye-beach-snorkeling-belize/
I agree should be pronounced KAY not KEY lol. Canada roads have signs like this /\/\ and I never could decide if the sign meant bump or dip. The way they do things in different places always amuses me.
We kept mispronouncing it and correcting each other. That road sign would confuse me too :) It is interesting to see how things are done in other countries!
Is it better to book excursions outside of Carnival? We have a cruise coming up in December and I wanted to book a excursion but don't know how it works outside of Carinval
There are two major differences and you have to pick your poison: a). If you go with Carnival, the ship will not leave without getting that excursion group on the boat. b). If you go outside of Carnival, the price is cheaper, but you risk the boat leaving you. So you must make sure to get back to the boat prior to the boat beginning to prepare for departing the site. I have been on the Triumph and they offer excursions that did not fill at 1/2 price the day before the excursion takes place. Be aware that the popular excursions will sell out quickly.
We have done both and have had good experiences both ways... We always look at the Carnival excursions first because they are guaranteed. But if there is something we want to do that is not offered by Carnival then we make sure we find a reputable company to book through. My greatest recommendation is that if you book outside of the cruise line, do your research! We always book online ahead of the cruise so we know what we are doing when we pull into port.
This is Goff's Caye in Belize. It was not booked through Carnival but with a company called Island Marketing. Here is the link: belizecruiseexcursions.com/excursion/sun-kissed-goffs-caye-beach-snorkeling-belize/
As long as you take an organized excursion you will be fine! We went on a bus through Belize City and into the rainforest and felt completely safe. You just don't want to leave the port area to explore on your own!
Hey it's me your new best friend Blair just sitting back on my couch relaxing with my babies watching, well you know what I'm watching I don't even have to say it or type it okay that part!*🛳️⚓⛵🚤💙💦
Thank for sharing with me. I can’t believe that I missed this one to. And that’s okay because with y’all it’s so worth seeing again.

Yes, I agree...that is some excited group of guys!
Been there and loved it
My family loves Goff's Caye! We never realized how beautiful Belize actually was until we visited there a few years ago.
Love it!! I am counting down the days until January when we go to the Bahamas on the Dream! I watched your Louisiana Life videos and love the crawfish boil! Thank you so very much for doing these. Your family is really great!

It looks like you had so much fun on your cruise! We use aloe vera on our sunburns. Have a magical day sprinkled with pixie dust!
+bluescity1Disney yes it was fantastic!!! We agree, we always bring some aloe too. We just didn't have it with us, but we got it back on the ship. Thanks so much 😀
Love you guys! What a great family you are! Going on a cruise in little over a week can't wait! Great videos!
Thanks Amanda!!! Wow, just a week, that is exciting! Have a wonderful time :)

Thank you for the advice! I will check them out on Trip Advisor!
This has convinced my wife and I that we need to book this excursion for our July cruise! Who did you book this through?
Oh fantastic! It is a beautiful little island and the snorkeling is just amazing!!! Here is the website we booked through: belizecruiseexcursions.com/excursion/sun-kissed-goffs-caye-beach-snorkeling-belize/
Is the tender boats in Belize accessible for electric scooter wheelchairs

Pure vitamin e oil for sunburns works great
+Elizabeth Breen great tip, I did not know that!
EECC Travels I got the info from the pharmacist!!
Have a nice trip on the cruise 😁😁😁😁
It was a fantastic cruise! Thanks!
very cool... was that the April 16th cruise?
+james dickerson it sure was! Were you on this cruise too?
EECC Travels yes we were ... my girlfriend and her aunt went to goffs caye while we flew to ambergris caye to dive

what is that the kids where drinking in the tender out to the second island cheers ?
+Nick Boyar water in sealed plastic bags, crazy! We had never seen that before!
What tour company did you use in Belize?
We used Island Marketing. If you Google 'Goff's Caye excursion', they should be the first one to come up. It was a great experience!
EECC Travels Thanks for the quick response. You guys are top notch!
What excursion was this? Part of Carnival?
This is Goff's Caye in Belize. It was not booked through Carnival but with a company called Island Marketing. Here is the link: belizecruiseexcursions.com/excursion/sun-kissed-goffs-caye-beach-snorkeling-belize/
I keep reading that Belize isn’t the safest. Can you give me your insight as someone who’s been there?
As long as you take an organized excursion you will be fine! We went on a bus through Belize City and into the rainforest and felt completely safe. You just don't want to leave the port area to explore on your own!
Thank you for the advice!
I went to that little island ❣️❣️❣️❣️half my heart was left there
It was just amazing how small and how beautiful Goff's Caye was!!!
