  2. So for our very last stop in Cabo, I did a food tour with Juan More Taco. I was literally the only one on this tour so I got the VIP treatment.

     

    It was basically an overview of Cabo. Some

    Mexican history as we go from different restaurants and taco stands throughout the city. Just outside the waterfront. All these restaurants/ stands we went to cater to locals.

    A brief walk along the waterfront before my taco tour. (Gotta get that calorie burn early with these food tours lol)

  3. Wow, such great pictures! I have been to Antigua before on a tour and I think I would like to do a tour on my own. If I remember it isn't a huge town. I also would like to do Puerto Vallarta on my own but I think I would take a taxi to the Malecon maybe and walk around.

    Ok, I have a few questions if you don't mind?

     

    Did you get any useful maps of the ports on the ship?

    Were you able to use American dollars everywhere?

    How many Elegant nights did you have and when were they?

     

     

     

    In Antigua, our guide gave us a very nice map. The only maps the ship gives out is the shopping guide which suck.

     

    Yes, USD accepted everywhere. Just note that change may be given in local currency.

     

    We had 3 evening chic nights. Very few participated.
