KKMurphy2 Posted February 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I will be on Destiny March 31 and want to do the Isla Passion tour. The ship is in the port late which is very strange, but my biggest concern is the shore excursion is 3-8. Isn't it getting dark at this time? I hate to be out in Mexico at night and would like any input from previous participants of this excursion. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We absolutely loved it! I would imagine that it would just start getting dark around 7:30 or 8 by then. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlwebst Posted February 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I have to agree this is a great place. We will be back on our next trip to Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobucks_43228 Posted February 20, 2011 #4 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We have done this excursion twice. It's a blast!!! I'm not sure what time it gets dark however I trust the company enough I'd do it at night.. It's only booked through Carnival so you have peace of mind not being left. The Twister boat returns back to the dock which is just a short walk to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasbts Posted February 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2011 My son is 10 and not a daredevil at all. Is the Twister safe and fun for kids? I can just see him stuck on this boat and scared out of his mind. Also, are there lots of kids on Passion Island or is it mostly adults? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make sure the boat is balanced with equal weight on each side. We had two kids about your son's age on our trip, but there were other kids in other boats going to the same location. Everyone, young to older, enjoyed the trip, especially the boat ride over. The team on the boat really makes sure everyone is comfortable and having fun! Your son will probably really enjoy it!

junglecat Posted February 20, 2011 #7 Share Posted February 20, 2011 We've inquired about going there as well and were told that Twister is no longer an option. It doesn't run anymore. Mmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is odd it is still listed on both Carnival's site as well as Island Marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess if it's not listed on a particular cruise especially if close to sailing date, it's sold out. There are only a limited number of people allowed on the island. I wasn't aware that Island Marketing offered it. This is one excursion I'd recommend ordering through carnival however. It's very organized and being as the only way back is on a boat should something happen you would be covered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pulled up the main web page and Carnival. It is available for my cruise. Maybe it isn't for above poster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
