Cruise to Mexico. . .anything I should know?

Question

Everyone says not to drink the water while on shore but is there anything else?

(Going on Royal Caribbean - Vision of the Seas)

Answer 1

Yeah, don't do anything naive and stupid like wandering off by yourself at night. Watch your drink, and ask the folks on the cruise line about what bars and clubs to stay away from on shore. Mexico is an extremely dangerous place.. especially for white women..

Answer 6

It's not that their water is bad or germ infested, it's that we clean our water a lot better than they do and our bodies aren't used to their water. So.. I wouldn't drink the water.  That's about it.

Answer 14

When I went I only ate and drank on the ship, if going ashore bring a couple of bottles of water and snacks. You will be approached by people trying to sell you everything, keep only  small bills in your pocket so you can take out one at a time instead of showing a wad of cash. If you take a taxi anywhere be sure  it is one of the bigger companies, not just some guy that says he'll take you where your going. Always be on guard you are in a foreign country although they are very friendly. Have fun.

Answer 15

lets see ive gone to mexico a couple times and this is what i have learned:

don't drink the water

bring Tylonal(sp?), the water will be in something you eat at sometime and you may get sick

if someone is begging, ignore them

ride the pretty horses on the beach if you like to ride, but dont touch the stray dogs, even if they follow you

if possible see some ruins, they are awesome

Bring lots and lots of suncreen

Bring a good book to read on the beach

Answer 16

don't go to the donkey show.

Answer 17

Remember to take your passport. You will most likely not be allowed to board the ship without it. You will need it to get back into the US.

Also, pack your sense of adventure, you sense of the beautiful, and your sense of humor. They'll all come in handy in Mexico. Everything else is just "stuff."

Answer 18

learn the currency exchange rate. jew down the price on everything. don't call any locals a beaner. don't bother washing your hands.

Answer 19

If you plan to stay in Mexico is that if you eat too many tacos or burritos or enchilads.... ur going to be on the toilet seat for a longgggggggg time

Answer 20

don't get near the edges because they won't go back for you they will only throw a life saver at you and that's it

Answer 21

Answer 22

Don't go to Tijuana! Unless you're looking for REALLY wild times.
