Review summary

This was our Swan Song cruise with Princess. If we do cruise the Mexican Riviera again, we will take the ports of call more into consideration when choosing while specifically avoiding those with only half a day in highlight ports such as Cabo forgoing Mazatlan altogether. Will select cruise lines that have more of a "When in Rome" attitude by offering the culture of the destination to enhance menu options on board.
