CALYMO Posted January 9, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2017 We are a family of four travelling to Cozumel on March 31 on RC Oasis.... I have seen a number of posts saying how easy it is to just grab a taxi right at the pier. We are planning on going to Playa Mia - I am concerned about arranging for transportation back to the ship...Are there taxis readily available at Playa Mia to take you back? Children are 9 and 7 are car seats required? We will have them with us on the ship just unsure about lugging them around all day? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelsuz Posted January 9, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2017 When we were done in Playa Mia in August there were taxis lined up outside and we took one. We took a van since we had 8. No car seat needed for our 7 year old. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted January 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 9, 2017 There's no car seat law in Mexico. So it's your choice to lug them or not. There are seat belts so for your kids, that'll probably work out fine. Any reason to bring them on board? You driving to port? No place to put them?

JohninDC Posted January 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 9, 2017 EVERY beach club we've visited on Coz has had taxis waiting in the afternoon to take guest back to the pier. On one occasion our waiter had to call one at Nachi, but the cab arrived before we were packed up and ready. You will not have any issues - just pay attention to the time.

CALYMO Posted January 10, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Thanks for the quick responses!! To answer above question about car seats..we are travelling from Canada and renting a car for a few days before and after the cruise. With what the car rentals charge for a car seat its sometimes more economical to take our own. Reconsidering that thou - space is limited and if we dont require them in our ports we may just pay for the convenience of renting . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlanoDebbie Posted January 29, 2017 #7 Share Posted January 29, 2017 You can also ask your cab driver to come back at a specific time to pick you up. We've done that in Cozumel as well as Montego Bay. Since there is so much competition, they are usually more than willing to come back for you at the appointed time. We had a larger group of 6 both times, and wanted to stay together in one vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marquette98 Posted January 30, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Have you looked into car seat laws for where you will be driving? Most 9 year olds wouldn't be required to have one, although I know that as a parent you may want your child to use it still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maldenmusic Posted February 1, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Been to Coz around 12 times and there have always been taxis waiting no matter where we were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
