Trip Review - British Columbia, Canada - Beverley Poleschuk - March 2008

This was my second trip to Belize, and my second stay at the Jungle Dome! This time I brought the whole family, (two adults and 5 kids) and what a wonderful time we had!

The resort is small, quiet and quaint, and situated in a perfect spot for reasonably quick access to all the jungle type tours. A perfect place to come "home" to after a day of touring.

The rooms are very spacious and clean, the staff is super friendly, and the food is fantastic! Everything made from scratch and lots of it! My "kids", ages 15-29, are still talking about the food!



Must do tours: The Black Hole drop, The ATM caving tour and the Cave tubing. Wouldn't recommend the Zipline. I didn't think it was good value for the money....but then if you've ever done the Zipline in Whistler, B.C., Canada, it's really hard to find something that will compare to that!

All in all, a fabulous trip thanks in a very large part to the Jungle Dome and their great staff!!

Trip Review - Port Washington, New York, USA - Paul and Deb Koestner - February 2008

My wife Deb and I wanted to share with you how much we loved our stay at the Jungle Dome. It was the perfect base from which to stage our local adventures. And we got our fill in a short time, thanks to Karen's considered pairing of guides and guests.



What a rare find Luis is. Here is a guide who clearly knows his country, and continues his self-education while giving measured doses of what he knows, without any of the Disney fluff. We had several great excursions with him. About two minutes out of the Dome on day one he rounded up the tarantula pictured below, explaining how to hold them so nobody and nothing gets harmed. Thanks, Luis, we'll just have a look.

The entire staff made us feel at home during the time we spent at the Dome, which it turns out wasn't a whole lot. As you must know, it's strategically located for some of the most dramatic adventures to be had in Belize.



We noted how folks situated in other parts of the country suffered considerably more daunting treks to get to the same spots we enjoyed with relative ease. Coming back to the Dome for a swim and a great meal was the daily reward for the physical challenges we signed up for.



Thanks again for providing this great home base/haven from which to enjoy the natural wonders of Belize. And do pass on our thanks to Karen, David, Wani (I'm guessing there) and the rest of the staff, as well as the now famous Luis (saw him, as well as William from Che Chem Ha, on the History Channel), and Eddie from next door. They made for one stellar crew.



Fair winds,

PS: About the only thing I regret is not having purchased a great, waterproof camera before the trip. We missed countless photographic opportunities because of the daunting conditions constantly threatening an ordinary digital camera. Tell future voyagers they might want to splurge, at least on a waterproof throw-away

Belize Trip Review - Ontario, Canada - Barbara Clumpus - March 2008

My second visit to the Jungle Dome, this time with my daughter Jodi and grandson Alex. How wonderful to relive an incredible adventure through my grandson’s 10 year old eyes! Once again the staff treated us like extended family ~ hospitality superb and the meals wonderful. Luis was a fabulous guide, always up for something different on our adventures together ~ and as a result we found the ‘real’ crystal cave on the river tubing trip! A 45 minute trip ended up taking 3 hours! Very awe-inspiring and great fun! Thanks so much Karen, Andy, David and all staff. We enjoyed our family holiday immensely.

Belize Trip Review Michigan, USA - Kevin and Chele Green - December 2007

Wow! The trip of a lifetime!!

Thank you Karen and staff at the Jungle Dome for the unforgettable experiences. We started our 6 year anniversary trip in San Pedro where we snorkeled until our hearts were content ~ 4 days of back to back water adventures.

The inland Belize tours were the most breathtaking. We started by visiting Xunantunich and kayaking on the Mopan River with our guide Henry. Then off to the Black Hole Drop – what a gorgeous hike through the mountainous rainforest. If our legs weren’t sore enough next we traversed the Actun Tunichil Muknal water cave where we conquered our fears of heights & claustrophobia. Lastly we were awestruck by the Tikal Mayan Temples. How Magnificent!

We finished our tour of duty with a horseback ride and ziplining our way back to the USA

Roxy and Mark Sylvesters Belize Trip Review

Thank you for a marvelous time. We wish we had another 8 days here. All of the guides for our trips were awesome with special note to Louis. His portrayal of the human side of the Maya people really put things into perspective.

Guest Comments from Jan and Cameron Kleinert from New York, USA

When we were planning this trip, 4 nights sounded like plenty of time to spend here. Now that it’s time to fly home tomorrow, we certainly wish we had more time here. Everything about this vacation has been fantastic. Each of the tours we took were excellent.

Manuel was a great guide for the ATM trip and a special treat was that the archaeologist (his uncle) was leading a group of students through the cave that day so we got to listen in on his lecture as well. Carlos was our guide for both Caracol and cave tubing. He was so fun and friendly and obviously has a genuine interest in what he is doing. He is so knowledgeable about local history, plants, animals, etc. Thanks to Carlos we got to taste both sugar cane and termites today.

Aside from the tours, everyone at the Jungle Dome is just wonderful. It felt more like visiting friends and family than staying at a resort. Having dinner and sharing the great food and stories with other guests was a great way to end the days.

When we were planning this trip, I think I read a review on Tripadvisor from a guest who said that if you stayed here you would be planning your next trip here before you even left…they were right!

Thanks to everyone here for a very memorable trip!

I want to thank you all for helping make our trip to Belize so wonderful. I really appreciated your kindness in making us feel at home. I have some fabulous memories of visiting Belize and thanks again for helping in that. My favorite adventure trip was to the CheChem Ha caves. It was so cool hiking through the jungle and ending up in a pitch dark cave with a headlamp on my head. Way cool!
