    If a food tour interests you for Mazatlan, we did a food tour (I think it was "taste of Pitiyal") with Flavor Teller Food Tours 2-3 years ago and it was awesome.  Went to places we never would have found on our own, and at a very reasonable price.  Guide was very knowledgeable and informative.


    thanks!  I’m checking out the tours on their site now! 

  2. Hi,

     

    Does anyone have any experience with the tequila tour offered by Mazatlan Tours by Johann & Sandra?  
     

    Trying to find something to do in Mazatlan that’s not a beach..and none of the ship excursions really interest me

    Thanks for all the responses everyone!  How is the MDR food and service?


    I enjoy Carnivals MDR food the most out of the 3 mainstream lines. I was on the Horizon (Panoramas sister ship) last year and I thought the food was very good for the most part. If you don’t like something, they are more than accommodating to bring you something else. 
     

    I also enjoy all of the free food options like Guys Burgers and Blue Iguana.

    Lots of choices Thanks! Do you happen to remember the cost of the pig and anchor? Is it per item or a flat fee? Tia


    Pig & Anchor has a free buffet on embarkation day, not inside the restaurant but outside. At least it did on Horizon last year. I plan on going there on Panorama in September, it was not crowded at all.

  5.  If I remember to get them I will but I’m not going to worry too much about it. I was more concerned about tipping our tour guides and also if we take a taxi somewhere and it sounds like USD are fine for that purpose. 
     

    thank you both for your input 😀

    Are pesos needed?  No usually.  Are using pesos smart?  Yep.  We live in Puerto Vallarta part of the year and never use dollars (nor do any of our friends who live in PV).  On the other hand, you can certainly use dollars most places and accept the exchange rate.  I have often said that there are 3 sets of prices in most Mexican cruise ports.  1. the normal Mexican price  2.  Gringo prices and 3. prices for those off of cruise ships.  And you can guess who gets the worst price :).

    Good to know…thank you!  I think I may bring some with me just in case!

    When my PVP is out, his voicemail directs me to a different PVP.  Did yours give you anyone else’s name?  If not, maybe ask for a new PVP.  You could always switch back when yours returns.  


    I was going to say something similar. My PVP was out on medical leave when I emailed her recently. Her out of office email reply directed me to contact a different PVP in her absence. I contacted the new PVP and explained my situation and they were more than happy to help.

  8. Hi all,

     

    I am on the Panorama in September and right now in my Cruise Planner there is a promo code for 10% off internet packages when I book an excursion but it expires tonight. Do these promotions happen often? I’m just wondering if this might pop back up before my cruise.

    It was getting close to 4 pm so we headed back to check out and enjoyed the lobby bar and cafe, people watching and WiFi until it was time to Uber to Lax! 
    I hope you’ve enjoyed my review and that it gets you excited for your next cruise from Long Beach - we loved everything about our little getaway❣️
    Wash your hands a lot, don’t sneeze on anyone ( or let them sneeze on you)  and ENJOY YOUR LIFE- every moment is precious and not to be wasted…..
    Happy Cruising!♥️


    thanks for your great review!  I am on the Panorama in September and really enjoyed all your pictures of Mexico and Long Beach
