30% Trip Discount Winners: 


We have been giving away weekly 30% Discount Draws on trips booked for January, February March and April 2017.  For guests who booked any Island Expeditions trip or Bocawina Rainforest Resort stay, were automatically entered in the running to be selected for a 30 % discount.  


All the excited winners so far and what they had to say about winning:


Jan 20th Winner: Larry Mathews "...Thanks For The Discount!!! My wife and I are very excited for our upcoming adventure to Epic Belize.  We started to search for a new adventure destination and discovered what looks like a top shelf tour with Island Expeditions.  We called Brendan during Hockey Night in Canada one Saturday night, and he was awesome.  He gave the details of the trip, and we were immediately sold.  We have called back several times to be sure we were buying and packing the right equipment.  The folks in BC were always friendly, accommodating and gave us good advice.  Since our trip starts on Super Bowl Sunday, Brendan did promise to post us some scores and highlights.  We are looking forward to a new adventure and excitement on the rivers, bays, mountains and jungle. Bon Voyage!..."


Jan 27th Winner: Robert Levin "... I thought I lived in paradise until I went on a trip with Island Expeditions to Belize and experienced both the Crooked Tree wetlands and the Lighthouse Atoll and Half Moon Caye.  It was truly a real paradise not only for the wildlife, warm sun, sand and surf, but the people of Belize.  The attitude, lifestyle, warm and inviting nature of the Belizean people had a great effect on me.  I can't wait to return and learn a bit more Kriol!  Island Expeditions knows well how to do Belize and is very well organized, staffed professionally and centered on safety with fun..."


Feb 3rd Winner: Vicki Copeland "... What a nice surprise to be a winner!   And Happy 30th Year Anniversary!  We are so excited to go on our Lighthouse Reef Getaway.  Several years ago, we went on the Ultimate Adventure Trip and had a marvelous time.  Island Expeditions is AWESOME!  Thanks!!..."


Feb 10th Winner: Julia Dyck "...I am delighted winning the discount. Half Moon Caye is truly a paradise. I had a wonderful time snorkeling off the island, kayaking and kayak sailing.  The staff are professional, well organized and take the time to teach you skills needed for the activities. This is my second adventure with Island Expeditions and I can’t wait to book for next year..."


Feb 17th Winner: John Winkley "...We are very excited to be a winners! Originally this spring, a family group of four was headed to Cuba for an obstacle course race. The organization we used was terribly unorganized from the beginning, and the whole process was frustrating, we never were able to speak with someone, and ultimately it was cancelled. (fortunately for us). With every shut door, there was one opening up...We still wanted to go somewhere tropical, and thought of Island Expeditions. This will be our second trip, and I called IE and within a few minutes we had a great plan for. When you call IE, you get to speak to a familiar voice. The IE staff is easy to work with and they make the planning easy and effortless. We went to Glovers Reef for our first trip, and look forward to going to Lighthouse Reef next month. Thanks IE for this experience, It's always been a pleasure working with you!.."


Feb 24th Winner: Lori Greenwood "...Thank you Island Expeditions. My trip to Half Moon Caye in January was truly amazing! I will never forget the aquarium and the night snorkel-WOW! The staff were fantastic, our reef guide Bryan really impressed me, he knows so much about the creatures that live there and knows exactly where to lead you, we were in the water a minute and saw our first nurse shark. I wasn't sure what to expect with the food in such a remote location but Bol, the chef, really took care of us, I was amazed at what came out of that little cookhouse, and was always too full to need any of the snacks I had brought along.  It was a pleasure spending time with those guys, you too Chris & James- "the camp guys band". What a great group of people to be marooned with..."


Mar 3rd Winner: Tracy Bell "...Being chosen as a winner was such a great surprise!  Snorkeling is my favorite vacation treat, and Island Expeditions never disappoints. Half Moon Caye is my all-time favorite destination and I cannot wait for my trip at the end of the month.  It's amazing to lay in your tent as the sun rises and watch the frigates and boobies as they hunt for their breakfast. The snorkeling at the aquarium is so amazing -- unbelievable coral formations and so many species of fish life.  Being able to "unplug" for a week and enjoy new friends is just one of the many good things about Island Expeditions trips.."


Mar 10th Winner: Elizabeth Barter
 

Mar 17th Winner: Eliah Werner  "...Winning when you didn't even expect it. Great idea from island expeditions and super excited about the first trip with the team!.."
