JosieH Posted December 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Hello. Looking for recomendations on Puerto Vallarta & Mazatlan excursions on the NCL Bliss. How far out should these be booked? We are family with children ages 8, 10 & 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vpearlkc Posted December 5, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 5, 2018 As for Puerto Vallarta. Whale watching might be fun if you are going in winter. We have never seen one around halloween when we normally go to PV so make sure when the whales are around. Zip lining at Los Veranos is best I've ever done, much better than El Edan. Maybe not good for eight year old. A boat ride to Yalapa is fun. If you have never been to PV just walking the Malecon and and Romantic Zone is fun and no excursion needed. Many people think that that PV has the second best restaurant scene in Mexico, behind only Mexico city. Just avoid Bubba Gumps ect. The crafts market is also good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outerdog Posted December 5, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2018 For PV, good for kids: 1) Marigalante Pirate Ship: https://www.pirateshipvallarta.com 2) Las Caletas Hideaway - https://www.vallarta-adventures.com/en/tour/caletas-beach-hideaway Can't do both - each of these are all-day trips. Both can be booked directly, or through NCL Shorex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h55zbt Posted December 5, 2018 #5 Share Posted December 5, 2018 We love and highly recommend the Las Caletas excursion and have taken it twice. We recommended it to friends who took it last summer and also loved it. We had planned to take it again on our upcoming Mexico cruise but sadly the ship doesn't arrive in port early enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napper777 Posted December 5, 2018 #6 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Here's another vote for Las Caletas Hideaway. We took it several years ago and til this day remember it as one of most favorite excursions (and we've been on many via 30 plus cruises). Terrific AMAZING food, friendly service, free drinks flowing, beautiful HEAVENLY scenery and funny entertainment on the boat ride back. I would do it again when I get back to PV and recommend it to everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napper777 Posted December 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted December 5, 2018 oops...just read children with OP....not so sure it's a kids' thing as they might get bored especially if they're ones that like waterparks, lots of activities, and are super active.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevmoley Posted December 5, 2018 #8 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Whale watching would depend on when you go for it to be worth it. Here are some choices we love: 1- Mazatlan: King David Tours to Stone Island 2- Puerto Vallarta: Yellapa Tour is beautiful and so is Las Caletas Hideaway Book early, all these tours fill up quickly. Have a wonderful trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
