We did book an excursion at this port--the cooking class with a local. Sofia picked us up at Autoprogresso and drove us to her home while telling us about the local history and culture. The next few hours were spent in her kitchen learning to to prepare Yucatan specialties like Sikil Pak and Sopa di Lima. This was the absolute best experience of the entire cruise. Its been two weeks since we've come back, and I'm still constantly talking about it. I thoroughly recommend anyone who's considering taking this excursion to do so. You will not be disappointed, and in fact you may find yourself wanting to return.
One of my favorite cities. We did a ghost tour the night before departure, and it was a great way to learn about local history we otherwise would not have learned.
We did not book an excursion for this port, but rather walked around the local area and had a small lunch. Other than the aggressive salespeople, it was enjoyable getting off the ship and just relaxing.
