iltravel Posted November 25, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2008 miss the ship on purpose? Does it sound crazy? I read a post here saying if someone missed the ship due to visiting Chichen Itza, he or she could just take a bus to catch the ship the next day at Coz. It actually sounds very attractive to me. We will take Carnival Fantasy and no excursion is offered by the ship on 12/25 for Tulum which is the part of the reason I book this cruise(didn't know until yesterday). So if we take private tour for Chichen Itza and not return to the ship, we can just take a bus going to Playa del Carmen and tour Tulum as much as we want, then return to the ship. Does it sound like a plan, or just crazy? Any recommendation for private tour? Still easy to find one once getting off the ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdawson Posted November 25, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Have you checked to learn if Chichen Itza is even open on Christmas Day? Of course you would need to make hotel plans and of course the fare on the ferry to Cozumel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YucatanToday Posted November 26, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Chichen Itza is open 365 days a year. You would need to take a bus to Valladolid, then to Cancun. From Cancun a bus to Playa del Carmen, then a tour to Tulum, and then reverse the process....then, you would take the ferry to Cozumel and a taxi to the pier. I don't recommend it. Why not take a tour of Dzibilchaltun or Uxmal from Progreso and save Tulum for another trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookyload Posted December 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Carnival offers this excursion on the 24th at Progresso. Why not just take it with them and know you are going to make the boat? I know this because my family is already scheduled for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
