Set out on a week-long kayaking trip through Belize's southern barrier reef. Before paddling over submerged coral reefs and through mangroves at Tobacco Caye, start with instructional and safety material. While en route to Southwater Caye, practice sailing your kayak. From atop your kayak, have an incredible view of a variety of marine creatures due to the shallow waters. If that isn't close enough, try snorkeling or scuba diving along the inner and outer walls.
Highlights
Paddle and sail your kayak in the Southwater Caye Reserve
Watch for stingrays, eagle rays, grouper, nurse sharks and more

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!

I served as the person responsible for planning a trip to Galapagos and Machu Picchu for a group of 14 people. Jane with Adventure Life was very helpful throughout the process. Making suggestions, offering insight, and in the end helped me overhaul an initial plan into something even better. Also, Jane makes all the plans including the flights within and between Peru and Ecuador. Thanks to her this is going to be a stress-free adventure. After making the final decision about the trip, Jane gathered the contact information for all the travelers and sent out the details to each traveler individually with links to pay deposits, upload passport info, and personal preferences. She also ensured a group email was sent out to the entire group welcoming us to the trip preparation process. Our trip is a year from now and we are excited to make this once in a life time trek. I am happy to have organized things through Adventure Life. However, two small issues came up that were a little off putting. First, Adventure Life adds $50 per person to the cost for each traveler as a donation to a Galapagos conservation fund. I think this should he offered as something that can be added at each traveler’s discretion. Instead, it is automatically added, and each person must ask to have it removed if they do not want it included. Second, although the trip deposit may be paid with a credit card without incurring an additional fee, the balance must be paid in another way to avoid a 3% credit card fee. Maybe this is standard with all travel agencies. In the end I would definitely go through Adventure Life for the next big trip.

Adventure-Life was FANTASTIC! They took our vague concept for our trip to Greece and turned it into an amazing vacation. We couldn't ask for a better team - they were responsive to all of our requests. We loved every aspect of our trip and look forward to using them again for our next adventure.
