Food and Dining

A little disappointed that one of the specialty restaurants had an upcharge of $12 per person and then some menu items had an additional upcharge. This per person up charge is mentioned nowhere!

My favorite port - bus tour to old communities where we stopped at a bakery with wonderful breads, a leather artisan and another wonderful Mexican meal.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Went parasailing! It was unbelievable - defense would do it again. As this is one of the most popular ports, it was the port at which we spent the least amount of time and tendering was involved. After parasailing, we didn’t have time to do or see anything.
