[@pc4sun]

I love how you point out free activities verse paid. Fantastic footage. What a beautiful place.

[@unclemel8276]

Where ya'll been lol. Good information video glad to see you guys are doing well

[@SofiaFeigelson]

Super helpful, thanks!

[@juniperdog5523]

Lots of fantastic info. Thanks!

[@pecosray]

Great video, TY

[@geraldb9706]

Hola y bueno Tardes Jillian and Jeremy. Nice to see this video of many of the things to do in that area. I hope you are both doing well. Peace and Calm. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦

[@jillianandjeremy]

Hi Gerald!! Thank you very much!! We love Progreso, as you know. Sending hugs from the eastern shore of the US! - Jillian

[@tunemistress8433]

Jillian, you were hilarious at 8:43! There have been huge amounts of kite surfers out over the last couple of weeks as we have been getting quite windy weather. Great job on the mushy sand, I hate it - Anne

[@jillianandjeremy]

Thank you, Annie!! Hugs to you and V! - Jillian

[@wayne8595]

Hay how would you compare the water clarity to other locations in Yucatan?

[@KimChilman-vj7xq]

When were you all there? We were wondering when you were able to see flamingos?

[@jillianandjeremy]

Hi Kim!! June-September in two different years - specifically, near Uxmal (the pink salt flats) and also Chuburna "marina" where you can rent kayaks. So beautiful!

[@melissayousefzadeh7706]

Hi Jillian, I was wondering if you would recommend this place to move to woth family? My husband seemed to like what he heard but, since it's still developing - how much behind is it than other major cities in comparison?

[@jillianandjeremy]

HI Melissa! Thanks so much for watching and reaching out! I 100% would recommend the Progreso / Chelem / Chixculub area for families. If you haven't already, check out the Progreso video we released just before this video, which addresses some of your questions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppSyZH1mbtB5arM Can't wait to hear if you decide to move there!!

[@caseybelaire]

Jill and Jeremy, would you recommend using third party tours for 1st time cruisers traveling with young children?

[@jillianandjeremy]

So sorry for the delay, Casey!! The only third party tour company we can recommend is: www.yucatancenote.com/. We know the owners and have personally used them two or three times and had EXCELLENT experiences each time. The owners are lovely, Canadian expats who employ deeply knowledgable local guides who know all the good, hidden spots not consumed with people. Highly recommend - and please tell them Jillian and Jeremy say HI!!!

[@samo8204]

Hola! New sub here. My Wife and I are looking into retirement in that area. Where would you suggest if we only have two must haves? 1. Bicycle friendly 2. Beach life.

[@jillianandjeremy]

Hi Sam!! First, so sorry for the delay. Next, CONGRATS on your new retirement heaven!!! Definitely NOT downtown Progreso - unless you rode only on the malecón (which doesn't allow cars), I wouldn't ride a bike around narrow, populated roads. That said, Progreso's neighbors Chelem and Chuburna are more quiet and have both of your requirements. Best wishes!!

[@AuntieAlberta]

Wait till you see the new Pig Beach

[@jillianandjeremy]

Can't wait!!

[@childofgod5002]

Do you know if you can walk to Pig Beach? Or should you take a taxi?? @auntiealberta :)

[@childofgod5002]

@@jillianandjeremy do you know if you can walk to Pig Beach from the bus drop off? or should you take a taxi??

[@lizzk1288]

Do you 2 speak Spanish? Im wondering how hard it is to navigate the area if you cant speak spanish...

[@jillianandjeremy]

Hey Lizz! Jillian here. Thanks for watching. I speak "ok" Spanish, and Jeremy knows the basics. We know tons of expats living there that don't speak any English and do just fine. Of course it helps, but the locals are used to English with the cruise ship passengers being such a big part of their economy. You should definitely go!!! ;-)

[@lizzk1288]

@@jillianandjeremy Its most definitely on our radar! Would love to go spend a year or so with the kids! I think im going to try to start learning some phrases. Thanks!😊

[@Yessir.7]

@@lizzk1288a whole year out there ? What would be the price on something like that and you would stay in a hotel??

[@lizzk1288]

@@Yessir.7 you can rent homes for fairly cheap. Even super close to the beach.

[@Yessir.7]

@@lizzk1288 how much for a whole year tho? And yea Ik about AIR BNB is that what your referring to?
