Mexican Riviera excursions

[Cruzmama]

Two weeks away from our cruise!  Normally, we would book our own excursions in port, but since cruising is a bit different now should we stick to ship excursions?   For those who have recently cruised, is it safe to book a catamaran port excursion or take a water taxi on our own?

I hope you have a fantastic cruise! I am going in 1 week and am doing all ship excursions, but we usually do that. Right now especially I like the idea of having a bubble with people from the ship, though I know some of the boat tours combine with other cruise lines at times. I am sure there will be vendors selling tours in all of the ports. I will try to report back week after next when I am onboard.

Thank you.  Have a great cruise.  Would love to hear all about it.  Please write a review if you have time.

@Cruzmama are you looking for suggestions?  We did the Mexican Riviera in March 2020, and in Puerto Vallarta did the excursion to San Sebastian.  I see it is still offered post-COVID, and I can highly recommend it.  When we did the tour, it was a small group of around 12 people, all from our cruise.  We stopped at a local tequila distillery, had lunch, stopped at a coffee plantation, and then to San Sebastian.  We had a great time, and would highly recommend it.

Thank you.  Sounds fun!

Have been to Puerto Vallarta multiple times and IMO San Sebastian stands above any other excursion you might take.  You will, however, need to walk a short distance over uneven cobblestone streets.

I loved the excursion I took.  I believe it was called rare spirits in Puerto vallarta
