We spend 11 days in Belize. Did the Crooked tree/lagoon ride. Spendy, but cool. You basically get paddled down the lagoon and check out the birds and such. Most of the cost is transportation. If you have your own its much cheaper. Did the Zoo... def. recommend it. Stayd a couple nights in San Ignacio. Got the bed bugs too, but the cave tubing was worth it. Make sure you go on a non-cuise ship day as we did.
Pretty much all the "activities" must be done thru a guide, by law. I will look up which guide book we used. I think my wife put up something on igo-ugo or something. I will send a link.
We got our own car for some of the mainland trip. Spendy but worth it. Drove up to Coppola's place. Pretty cool, esp just driving around up there.
Also went to the market in Belize City, which is only there when the ships come it. But it was cool. Got some nice loot for gifts.
Spent 5 or 6 days on Ambergis to dive. If I were to do it again (and I will) I would go to Turneffe Island and just dive there. A coworker did and he loved it - says it is still his best trip. I didnt because of cost, but I wish I did - and I will do it sometime soon'ish.
