Belize City and Rum Factory Tour

This was an awesome tour we had ao much fun and our tour guide Cardinal was awesome he was very knowledgeable and cool. The rum factory let you try shots of the different alcohols 2 for $1. We had so much fun on this tour and would definitely do it again if he was our tour guide. It did kind of suck that we didnt get a chance to take a picture in front of the Belize sign but i think we all forgot

Terrific excursion, the guide was exceptional and the tour was very informative. Bought Rum, Hot Sauces, and visited Hell.

It was a little difficult to locate our driver. He was located outside the port gates. Once we figured that out, our driver Cardinal, loaded us into his mini van w/ another couple. He was very informative and drove us thru different neighborhoods. The factory is small w/ a display on how the rum was made back in the day. We had free samples, if you wanted more you would pay $1. My daughter had just turned 21 so they gave her a full free drink, & from what I can tell it was strong :) We also purchased rum to take home. Outside a guy was selling Cashews, they were the best! On the way back to port we asked our driver to find us a nice place for a local lunch. He took us to a place near the port where we had the best beans and rice ever! It was very clean & nice. Our driver was so excited we wanted to eat locally he hugged us :) We had the best time visiting the vendors outside the port. Plus you can save lots of money buying from them directly.

Our tour group consisted of 3 people,so was like our own private tour. Our guide, Cardinal, was very gracious and knowledgeable.

The guide was great! Courtious, informative, and helps you in and out of the van. Most of the city is run down and dirty in my opinion. The prettiest part I saw was right at the port. You will be hounded by women who want to braid your hair to people wanting to sell items. I heard it can be a dangerous place AFTER I left Belize. I would like to go again but this time I'll just stay at the port, shop, AND put my hair up in a hat!!

This was a great tour of the City of Belize. Cardinal was a great tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable about the City. Answered all the questions everyone had. He was very good at telling us the history of Belize. Told us about the day to day life in Belize. The Rum factory was fun. Would highly recommend this tour.

Both guides good, but van was hot, understand gas expensive. Cardinal was very informative and polite.

Our tour guide, Gregory, was great. Friendly, knowledgeable, and very proud of his country. Learned and saw many interesting things as we drove around the city. Samples at the rum factory, but no production was taking place at the time. Nice change of pace type of tour that didn't take all day, leaving time for other activities.

Our guide was a very good historian and did an excellent job telling us about Belize's history while showing us the city. He was always able to answer our questions easily. Rum factory was also great and everyone there was also very helpful.

We enjoyed the tour and our guide "Cardinal" was great. Rum Factory interesting.

I booked this excursion for my family of five and we had a great time. We were taken all around the city and seen places we wouldn't have seen if we had explored the city ourselves. Our tour guide was very polite and full of information.The stop at the rum factory was tasty. We purchased some of the rum at a very reasonable price.

Great People and a nice personal touch

We had a pleasant day with our personalized driver escorting us around "his" city. He made it very personal showing us his family business and his homes. It was a relaxed day of fun for us all. Not the usual fast paced bus tour.

When we first ported in Belize, it was not at all what we expected, and we began to second guess our decision to book an excursion from other than the cruise line. We needn't have worried. We were directed to Way To Go Tours and our guides, Percy & Shaquille were excellent. Belize City is very poor, but our guides took what might have been a very depressing two hours & made it interesting & fun. The price for the tour was very reasonable & we enjoyed our trip. The only negative was that the van was old, with no running board, and getting in and out easier. If you were short, overweight, or had bad knees, it was a real chore getting in and out. Also, they had booked the van to its full capacity (14, I believe) without thought of how tight a fit it would be. Two people didn't show up for the tour, but if they had, they really wouldn't have fit.The three adults in our party all agreed that if they'd tried to put anyone else in that van, we would've forfeited the money and not gone.

Our Group had a wonderful time on the tour. Our tour guide Percy was very personable and knowledgeable of his home country. The Rum Factory was Yummy and informative.If you Visit Belize Please take this tour and look him up to be your guide - you won't be disappointed!!!

Our guide for the tour was very entertaining and knowledgeable but the Rum Factory could do with improvement. There could be a worker to explain the making of rum not just trying to sell.

Our driver, Norman, made this extremely interesting because he showed us his country from a native's point of view. Having just the six of us in the van made it personal. He was able to show us all aspects of living in Belize including where he lived, his Mom's business (preschool) and her home and also where the wealthy lived.So much better than a bus tour.

We had no problem connecting with our guide. Things were a little disorganized at first and we had to wait for an extended period of time before getting started. The guide spoke perfect English and was very accommodating. His knowledge of his country was excellent and we learned a great deal while being driven around in a small relatively comfortable van. The rum factory was a fairly small operation that was basically a short stop for us to taste the various kinds of rum and make whatever purchases that we wanted. There was a small museum and window through which we could view some of the bottling of the rum, but we discovered those on our own and were given no direction by the guide. More could have been done in that regard

Our guide Delroy and driver Kevin were very personable and Delroy was very knowledgable. The tour provided us with an insiders view of Belize and was just long enough. The egg nog at the Rum Factory was excellent however we did not have a tour of the Rum Factory. I would say that this tour was more of a City Tour and Rum Factory tasting. We were surprised that a school bus was our mode of transportation but other than the seats being small, the ride was comfortable.

Our guide Norman and guide in training Percy were great! They were both very friendly and offered us a wealth of information about their country. I really enjoyed the small size of our group it was only 7 people.

Very informative tour, these guys knew their homeland.

Our guide Braziliana (sp) was entertaining as the old bus took around the city. She explained countless facts about Belize. This tour takes you to the southside of Belize which is a very poor section but worth seeing because of the historic buildings and landmarks. We stopped in front of the Belize letters and Braziliana had a flag of Belize for us to hold. This was a nice touch as the other tour groups who were waiting to take a picture did not have a flag and wanted hers. The Rum Factory was not so much of tour as it was a stop to buy really good rum. We were not given a formal tour however you could walk around and read the information for your self. You have to pay an additional fee for the tasting when it is usually included in tours and because there was not an actual tour of the factory. As an agent I would recommend this tour for people who are seeking a ride to buy some really good rum but not for someone who is interested in learning how the rum is made.

Drive was very personable and basically catered to our needs . He introduced us to his country and culture.

Enjoyed this tour it was very informative and the young man was polite. Rum factory was very interesting and they were also very polite.
