Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I highly recommend YOLO Island Dream Tours in San Pedro, Belize. Everything about the excursion was top notch! Fantastic crew, great stops, delicious food. The snorkeling stops were amazing. Can't say enough about how great the day was. Good food, comfortable seating, and the photos they included and emailed are a great memory to have.

My 12-year-old son and I did the sunset snorkel and chill cruise and it was perfection. As a mom traveling solo with a kid who had never snorkeled before, I felt like we were in the very best hands. The crew was attentive, safety minded, and all-around exceptional. For snorkeling, they break you up into smaller groups and give each group a guide. Our guide was great about pointing out all the marine life to us as we swam around the reserve. The crew even takes pictures for you all day long, and then emails them out a few days later via dropbox, so you don't have to stress about capturing memories. Seriously...every detail is taken care of for you! You will love it!

Not all boats are equal and neither are boat crews. I have toured twice with Island dream tours and they are the best in San Pedro. Their equipment is clean and well maintained. The crew is awesome and read the vibe of the group aboard.

Our group did the all day snorkel and chill trip. This is the best and most enjoyable boat you will find. I am 6 months pregnant and wanted to do all the things but also be able to relax and have fun with friends. All other tours will have you on a small cramped boat. This tour offers plenty of space, comfortable seating, food and open bar. We never waited on beverages or anything we needed. The staff was very attentive, quick, and safe. My favorite part was our 2 hour chill session in waste deep water floating with friends in beautiful water all the pictures are spot on. Snorkeling was great but for those who can swim perfectly fine and have snorkeled before I felt our guide was holding us up a bit but we did have a mixed group so at the end of the day it was fine. He spent a little too much time talking instead of letting us swim in my opinion. When we come back this is the only company I would book with. Thank you guys for a great day, one of our best days of our vacation!

We have snorkeled a lot of places and by far Island Dreams has been the best company to go with. The trip was Amazing, the catamaran, crew, food and drinks were just what a person needs on a beautiful sunny day! Well worth the money and the crew is definitely worth a great tip!!

I have been on many MANY snorkel excursions. By far this is THE BEST ONE! The boat was amazing, the crew was amazing, the open bar and food were beyond amazing. The highlight for me was the 45 min guided snorkel with guide at Hol Chan. We saw so many fish, rays, coral; all very close up. Our guide was so nice and so knowledgeable. He kept our small group together in a safe orderly way. Also full bar; that means not one island drink but many kinds and the crew is quick to see if you need a drink. The food provided (breakfast, fruit snack, lunch) may have been the best we had on the island. I honestly cannot say enough good things about the experience they provided us. To top it off we got pictures of our excursion emailed to us. If you do this tour you will NOT be disappointed. Matter of fact it will be the highlight of your trip!

We had so much fun on the Snorkle, Chill, Sunset cruise! Great food! Great service! Even the non-snorkelers enjoyed the trip. And a party at the end! Thank you so much for the wonderful memory!

Couldn’t have asked for a better sunset cruise. Food was excellent, drinks were great and an endless supply and the staff was awesome.

I live in San Pedro and we have a saying that ‘boat days are the best days’. Island Dream Tours’ YOLO excursions are consistently a top notch experience. ‘You Only Live Once’’, in this life as we know it, book the trip!

They have two boats. One for smaller groups and another for larger groups. We were a private group of 12 and were on the bigger boat with 4 staff. There was tones of space and could easily hold a group twice our size.

We will have our 6 year old with us. Do you think a full day is too long for him?

Hello,
We have had children of all ages join our full day cruises; all of them had an amazing time. We do recommend visiting our website for more detailed information on each of our tours, so as to then select a cruise that best suits your 6 year old.

Hi!
As the previous answer provided by Rob L. Everyone has the option of wearing a life-vest ( we provide) , also our guides have life rings they carry around with them for those that are not strong swimmers.

Will we be forced to wear a life vest when we snorkel with the sharks and sting rays? I hope not...

Is it easy to get on and off the boat in the water for the stops to snorkel and of course the shark ray alley place?

They have a ladder on the back of boat like most dive or snorkeling boats. If you don’t think you will have problems climbing the ladder out of the water and back into the boat, then you should be fine.

What is the difference between the
Full day “chill” cruise and the full day caye caulker cruise? Which is better ?
Seattle Traveler
Seattle, WA13 contributions
Hard to say which is better because it depends on what you want to do. Play and drink in the water? Or explore the small island? We chose the chill cruise, and on another day we took a ferry over to Caye Caulker for the afternoon. We enjoyed visiting both places.

Thank you for contacting Island Dream Tours. Unfortunately, we are 1 1/2 hours away from Belize City which makes it impossible to get here and get back in time for your cruise departure. You may want to check with your cruise line and see what tours they offer closer to Belize City. Thanks!
