Shake Things Up On Your Next Cruise

 


You're an avid Carnival cruiser but you just can't go on one more trip to Cozumel or Progreso, I've got you!
🛳️How does Aruba, Curacao, and Grand Turk sound? An 8 Day Southern Caribbean Cruise might be just what the doctor ordered!
🛳️Need something a little shorter? What about a 4 Day Baja California Cruise to Ensenada and Catalina Island?
🛳️Or how about a 7 Day Mexican Riviera cruise from Long Beach. Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, & Cabo San Lucas...you're definitely not in Cozumel anymore!


Carnival Valor Oceanview Stateroom

 

We took a, much needed, 4 day cruise to Cozumel aboard the Carnival Valor! We were a group of 8 adults and it was just such a fun experience all the way around. 

Tequila Tasting Tour at Buccano's in Cozumel

 


Let me start by saying that the tequila tour was included with admission to Buccano's, otherwise this is not something we would have typically done. The tour itself had a lot of fun information about how tequila is made, about agave plants, and included some free samples. We liked that our guide was not overly pushy about purchasing the product too. I will say that these "dessert tequila" options we tasted were very tasty, but upon doing a quick web search we quickly learned that these were not luxury, "true tequila" products they were trying to sell us and many reviews claimed these tequilas were watered down. 

Buccanos Beach Club in Cozumel

We knew while we were in Mexico we definitely wanted somewhere to relax and just enjoy the sun and the sea, but without the large crowds that can be found at Mr. Sanchos. Buccanos was just what we were looking for! There was a $20 entrance fee but we ended up doing a group rate at the pier that included transportation to and from and even a stop for shopping. Buccanos has wonderful drinks, delicious food, and a very nice swimming pool! The food and drink prices were very affordable, especially for the portion size.
