Stopping in Cabo in late March with family (3 kids: 5/8/10).  Not there for very long and don't want to spend an arm & a leg on expensive excursions (Dolphin Experience)!  Was curious to see if there is anything close by (walking distance) that would be interesting/fun to do with the family that wouldn't break the bank.  Thanks!  

Traveling with kids and am wondering what the water temperature is these days? Not going for another couple weeks but just want to see how many swimsuits to pack because if the water is too cold there's no way any of us will be by the pool😆

Traveling with family in March and wondering if it would be worth getting the Cheers package. I'm usually pretty happy with the drink of the day, but I haven't cruised in over 2 years and wondering what the current price is? Also, I hear there are happy hours in a variety of locations on board, does anyone have info in regards to locations and pricing? I hear the fish bowl is a great price, just not sure what that great price is?

We're cruising as a family of 10 (adults and children) on Harmony in March 2020 in celebration of my in-laws 45 anniversary and 70th birthdays. Any ideas on what we can do on-board to celebrate aside from ordering a cake and decorate their cabin?  Thanks in advance!

We just got off a 10 day on April 9th. If you have the late seating there’s not much to do since you’ll be seeing the Tropical Theater productions before dinner. The comedians and entertainers were pretty good but walked out during the ships crew production shows (They were pretty bad, everything from talent to costumes.) But they have the Schooner Bar where you can have a late night cocktail and hang out (not sure if they have a piano man since we never saw anyone playing the piano. Ever.), but we were traveling with our kids so we’d only go there before dinner (7-8pm) when they’d have trivia. However, 2 nights out of the 10 they had Adult Comedy shows at 10:15pm. Hope this is helpful!

Chocolate chip cookies from room service

It’s hard to find a good chocolate chip cookie! Are they crunchy or soft and gooey? Would hate to pay the room service fee for crunchy cookies[emoji12][emoji514][emoji39]

Might seem like a silly question, but I feel even sillier packing towels from home. Thanks!

There’s a previous post in which some people say it’s $6-$8 vs same price of all the other drinks which is $11-$13.

So which is it? I’m sailing on Serenade in a few weeks and am now wondering if it’s worth getting the Deluxe Drink Package.

Thanks!

We visited Martinique for a day and had an awesome time with Brandon. He's American and was super flexible and accommodating. He's a genuinely nice person and didn't mind adjusting the day based on our preferences. We did some snorkeling at a great non-touristy spot, visited St. Pierre, checked out the Neisson Distillery and sampled different rums, and he barbecued fresh fish for us on the beach. He even showed us how to make the traditional rum drink from Martinique, the ti' punch! So much fun! https://travelerpalmexcursions.wordpress.com/

Thanks for this info, I too am looking into Brandon! Is this by any chance a private tour or with other people on a bus? Is the snorkeling off the beach or does he take you out on boat? And pushing my luck a bit, if you’re willing to share any pictures, that’d be appreciated!

I'm not sure if he accepts young children, but I recently went on an excursion with Brandon that included snorkeling. He was very accommodating, so I'm sure he could figure out a way for you to snorkel and have your kids there as well. His website is https://travelerpalmexcursions.wordpress.com/ and his email address is barronb306@gmail.com.

Thank you SO much!!!

I’ve read Fontaine Didier is pretty popular and am curious if it’s something we can do on our own and appropriate for a 6 and 5 year old? Our ship has a hiking excursion but it’s for ages 12 and up. I’ve also read mention about other “better” hiking trails?

Hi! Hope you had a great vacation! Did you by any chance book this excursion? I too am wondering what company RCC uses. Purchasing from the cruise line gives us a minimum age requirement of 5 and my youngest is 4. Any information you're willing to provide is welcome and appreciated.:)

Hi, my family and I will be there in April and was wondering if there are any Snorkel excursions? I was looking into booking with Kata Mambo but the tour hours don't align with our arrival/departure times:( RCC provides one but the minimum age is 6 and one of my kids is 4.

Very interested to hear what you end up doing! We will have an 8 and 3 year old and I am really struggling with this port. Going on NCL Dawn in November. We always book privately for excursions, but with the language and money difference (they only accept Euros), we decided this might be the one time we book through NCL. Surprise, the cruise line doesnt offer any excursions from this port!

I'm having a hard time as well. Would you mind sharing what you ended up doing with your kids? I'm currently planning our April 2018 vacation with my 4 and 6 year olds. Thanks!

I'm searching for information on kids that same age. Specifically anything that includes seeing airplanes. Curious as what you decided on?

I'll be there with my 4 and 6 year olds in April and wondering if there are any Pirate Ship Tours? I've read previous posts referring to Lord Sheffield but it seems to be closed. Any other leads?

I'll be traveling with my 4 and 6 year olds and wondering if anyone is aware of any Pirate Ship tours on the island?
