What shore excursions should I do?

I’m leaving on Sunday (Jan. 7th) for a cruise on the Carnival Valor going to Belize City, Roatan, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman. If you’ve taken a cruise to these places, what shore excursions would you recommend? I think we’re doing the Mayan ruins shore excursion in Belize…otherwise I’m open to suggestions/comments. Please let me know what you think I should or shouldn’t do in these ports. Thanks! Also, if you’ve sailed on the Valor, what did you think? I’ve read some pretty bad reviews on it, but I’m hoping that’s not the case.

Belize is a great Caribbean retirement haven?

It’s beautiful, inexpensive (homes $50,000, no taxes), English is spoken, it’s pristine (no pollution) and filled with fun adventures including a magnificent barrier reef and mysterious Mayan ruins.

Budget traveling, Belize?

I’m heading to Belize with my girlfriend soon. We’ll be there for nine days and plan on staying on Caye Corker. We’re planning on snorkeling, checking out Mayan Ruins on the mainland and venturing to other islands for day trips. We’re concerned with budgeting issues as we’ve planned on taking nearly 1000 dollars each and splitting all costs evenly. We’ve heard that cash is about the only payment accepted most places and that credit cards aren’t! My question is that will 2000 between the two of us be enough to cover our expenses? We’re planning on living modestly, hopefully under 30 a night and not splurging on unnecessary amenities. Are there hidden costs not mentioned in in the travel books? Has anyone done this similar thing? any help is GREATLY appreciated.
