Mexican Riviera Cruise through Carnival Cruise Ship. What are things that I need to know?

Question

First time on a cruise ship. I'll be going with my fiancee and I really need some tips and pointers for this trip. Safety and Money saver will be the best answers. How much did you spend through the whole trip? Im going on a 4 night trip.

Answer 1

No different than anywhere else re safety - be sensible, do not let down your guard and safely store things like passport money jewelry etc.

The Yukatan is one of the safest places you can go - in our opinion and experience..... if you get the opportuniyt to visit any of the pyrimids - DO IT!!!!

Have fun and next time come to Barbados!!

Answer 2

You don't have to spend any money if you want to stay on the ship. I know you will get off though and you can spend up to $100 per day easily off the ship if you do some exciting things like para sailing etc. On the ship you already know what that cost is except they will expect you to tip a lot. It is more than 20% of the charges as I remember. Cruises are the best vacations I have ever been on. There is something to do every minute of every day, if you want to do it.
