elvisrocks Posted January 25, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 25, 2014 We have been to Cozumel many times but have never been to the "other" side. What Carnival excursion or tour will take us to the East Side of the Island? Suggestions please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise4funbeach4sun Posted January 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2014 We always rent a car and drive to the other side. You can drive along the coast and then take the trans hwy across . It drops you downtown just make a left just before the water and that will take you back to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foil7102 Posted January 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hey, look up Bar hop tour on trip advisor. Sounds like right what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd2355 Posted January 25, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Why not just hire a taxi for 3-4 hours and ask him to show you the other side of the island? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvisrocks Posted January 25, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Thank you so much for the ideas. Bar Hop might actually be right for us, but I will look at the other options too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Angel Posted January 27, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 27, 2014 elvisrocks, the previous posters all had great suggestions. You also might want to check out the Hiring a driver for the day thread (check out the last few pages for more recent info). My family did this while on Cozumel and we had a blast! We visited San Gervasio, then over to the east side of the island...many stops for drinks, beach time, sightseeing and photo ops. Then on to Paradise Beach and after that, downtown for some shopping. The Bar Hop is also a great way to see the east side. Good luck with your plans!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvisrocks Posted January 27, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Thank you Laughing Angel. I will definitely look at that thread and the other options too. We actually had an excursion picked out on Carnival, then it disappeared. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlktx49 Posted January 27, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I did the Cozumel Bar Hop Bus the last time I was in Cozumel, January 2013. It was great! I really wanted to see that side of the island, and so many people recommended the Hop that I checked it out. Now, my husband and I, and the other two couples in our group, are all in our 60's and not big drinkers or partiers, but Tom at the Hop assured me we would have a good time and not feel out of place. Took a taxi for a short ride to town, got on a nice bus there, and took off. We went to 4 bars on that side - a complementary shot at each one, then we we there for about 45 minutes at each one to do whatever we wanted. Got something to eat at one, and drinks, some bottled water at another, drinks at another. Everything was reasonably priced. Walked on the beach, watched the big waves come in and hit the rocks, just relaxed and talked. There were probably 35 or 40 people, all ages, and everyone was very nice and friendly. You have to take cash to pay for stuff on that side as there is no electricity, thus no credit card machines. I think we were gone about 3.5 hours. It was just perfect!

Fun experience, great driver, Alberto, and will do it again in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvisrocks Posted January 30, 2014 Author #12 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks everyone. I think I read somewhere that Tom of the Bar Hop may be the same Tom from Paradise Beach. Do you know if he the same guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
