The trip was phenomenal. We are having a formal presentation in October to students, families, staff, and university folks to showcase the student's research and experience with the aid of our digital photos, video. Their journal entries were insightful & the students praised all aspects of the trip.
We recommend Belize Eco-tours highly. We are happy we were able to work closely with you. Everything was well coordinated, and we applaud all the staff. The students willing gave $5 each to total over $200 additional we tipped the great staff
We have fun shots from our tour guides, driver, boatman etc.
The coast was ideal. Exactly what we needed after a hot stay in the jungle. Our teacher, Cara was fantastic. Our students are challenging with special needs outside of the fact that they are teenagers. She had great command of the classes, demanded respect and similar strong work ethic from the students. She challenged them to use skills and information to overcome fears. Each student has their own favorite memory. I wish you could see their tears, hear their fears and their renewed sense of a world outside of Washington, DC. Most importantly, we returned safe with a tremendous appreciation of other cultures, people, places, and things yet unknown.
We hope our relationship does not end here.BELIZE ECO-TOURS have forever branded wonderful images of a world once unknown to our students. For them, studying abroad in Belize/Guatemala is unforgettable. (: we do this again in 4 years with a new cohort)
