Carnival Panorama, Mexican Riviera Cruise! Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas.

Nice video. We have done this itinerary a few times and it’s always a blast. We usually do the same in Mazatlan and stay on the ship. Looking forward to seeing the Panaroma.

Enjoy, Panorama when you do get on it! We just took Royal Caribbean (to Alaska) after having always taken Carnival Cruises. For some reason, in my mind, I thought RC would be ‘nicer’. Not so. The cabins were planned out better (storage) but otherwise, I prefer the newer Carnival ships.

How did you book the private van at Puerto Vallarta? Thanks in advance

[@ChristinaS0320]

The year prior, my friends were in PV staying at an all-inclusive resort and were by the docks/ harbor. There was an area of a group of taxis waiting. He had the nicest van with a/c so they picked him. They had no idea where to go, so he took them to an amazing seafood restaurant where the locals eat. They then asked if they could hire him for a whole day the following day and he agreed. We then found him this trip and hired him again.

Thanks for the reply . Is there a way to contact him , we are going to PV with my family and friends in a couple of weeks .

We are doing this same cruise next January and are hoping to do our own thing in PV because so far the list of excursions offered is less than stellar. I'm a little nervous to go off on our own. This was helpful! It looks pretty safe and reliable. Did you all have to contact them before you embarked? First timer here lol.

[@ChristinaS0320]

The plans with the driver were made before the cruise and we told him what time we’d be in port for pick up.

Hi! Did you guys take a cab to that beach and restaurant in PV? Curious! Looks like fun!

[@ChristinaS0320]

Hi! It was a van our friends rented.

How much was the private van in PV? 😊

[@ChristinaS0320]

We didn’t rent it. Our friends did. But from what I can recall, we pitched in $100 per person for a total of $600ish.

How did you get to the Office in Cabo? Walk?

[@ChristinaS0320]

We did!

[@KarenNewsom-z7p]

@@ChristinaS0320 how far and is it along the beach? I went a couple of times but it was always from the hotel I was staying at and it was just a short walk from there.

[@ChristinaS0320]

@@KarenNewsom-z7p we actually took quite a long route to get there, all along the marina, then onto the beach and back up to The Office. It probably took us 45-50 minutes. If you don’t walk all the way around the marina and up that beach…instead, walking part of the marina then through the town a bit, it should take about 25-30 minutes. I hope this helps! Btw, go back to catch the tender early. The line was RIDICULOUS!

Hello how do you book a driver? We are going April 2024. Thank you.Rudy and Suzzie

[@ChristinaS0320]

I’m sorry, I can’t help you. I didn’t hire the driver. Someone from our group did.
