We were on the Glory years back and here's what we did:

Cozumel: We did the trip to Tulum thru Carnival the first time we were here. 2nd time we booked a Jeep tour in Playa Del Carmen where we drove a jeep around, went to the beach for lunch and to the caverns.

Belize: Did cave tubing w/Xstream cave tubing and they were awesome!!! Small group with 2 guides and they were great with our 10 yr old daughter whom had trouble paddling in the caves and river.

Costa Maya: Here we packed up 2 backpacks with school supplies (one for the HS and one for the kindergarten) and actually took a taxi to Majahual and go dropped off at the HS. We sat with the kids and spoke to the teacher and kids and gave them their backpack. From there we walked to the kindergarton and gave the kids the other backpack along with lollipops and other things. My daughter colored with the kids and they sang the Barney Song in spanish to us. I absolutely loved this place! If you don't know much spanish then I'd advise not to go there (they speak very little english but in the HS they are teaching English). The day we were in the kindergarton there was a montessori teacher there that spoke fluent english so I was able to chat with her while my husband and our daughter played with the little kids (we have video too!)

Nassau: Glory didn't go here when we sailed her so I can't recommend anything here.
