I sailed with my best friend / old college roommate one year ago, in August, 2016.

 

I hope y’all enjoy the video.

 

Our itinerary was:

Cozumel - Whale Sharks Snorkel

Belize - River Safari & Lamanai Ruins

Roatan - Andrew hung out at Mahagony Bay and I spent the day at Paya Bay Resort.

 

We loved the ship. Allure String Trio was onboard and amazing!

 

Let me know if you have any questions about the ship or ports.

Nice video =) Was the whale shark tour a ship sponsored excursion or a private one ?

 

 

 

It was ship excursion. And as much as I got some amazing footage, I wouldn’t recommend it.

 

It was a 45 minute ferry, 90 minute bus ride, then another 90-120 minutes out on a very rough boat ride. When we got to the whale sharks, they only allowed one person in the water at a time, which is not what we expected. Because of this, they basically shove you in and give you 1-2 minutes to see them up close and then it’s the next person’s turn. I got to go in twice, but was expecting they’d let the group in together for about 45 minutes or so.

 

Overall, $200 for an entire day of transport to and from with a total of about 3 minutes in the water wasn’t worth it, and totally blew my day.

 

If you can find a private operator that will give you more time in the water, it would be totally worth it. They are incredible, beautiful, gentle creatures.
