jsglow Posted October 30, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Yes. And you should be able to find info in the Ports of Call section on the board. Also, you'll need to walk all the way out of the Amber Cove complex to meet-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT1962 Posted October 30, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Check the 27 / Damajagua Waterfalls excursions, if you don’t have mobility issues. It’s one of the best excursions we have done in 30+ years of cruising. We used Marysol Tours and loved it. Iguana Mama gets good reviews as well and was alongside our group. Check YouTube videos so you know what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH and I have basically done most of the 3rd party excursions, so it may be the "fish eating the dead skin" pedicure for me next time.

First saw that on Santorini, but didn’t want to spend the time to do it. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatsthedillio Posted October 31, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Last time I was there we hired a driver for like $100 for the day. Have a few places in mind where you want to go or they take you to tourist trap places. Taking the cable up to the mini Cristo redentor is pretty awesome. Supposedly there's a monkeyland place nearby too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Island Dog Posted October 31, 2022 #11 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We did the Dune Buggy excursion with Marysol Tours last October and absolutely loved it. Drove through the countryside, along the beach, splashed through rivers and motored up into the hills. Had a couple nice stops along the way. One to see how chocolate and cigars are made. There were items for sale but nobody was pushy at all. Another stop, near the end of the tour, was at a nice beach where we had a chance to take a dip and get an ice cold Presidente. Tour was super-cheap as well. One tip though. If you are booking with Marysol and don't want to endure the long walk to the exit of the port, simply take a cheap short cab ride to the port gate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want to know that if my sister uses her scooter to get to the meeting location, would she be able to leave it there and be locked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FlaMariner Posted January 20, 2023 #15 Share Posted January 20, 2023 There was no office. We paid for the tour prior to the cruise and they were at the stop outside the port with a sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
