josiejojo Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 We are cruising in September on the Oasis of the sea. Ports are Falmouth,Cozumel and Labadee and three cruise days. We do love swimming and snorkelling and have done this is some amazing parts of the world. And we all like looking at markets and cultural areas. My question is what do you think are the definite do not miss !! Either on shore or whilst on the Oasis. Quote
Matt Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 In Cozumel, I really enjoy going into town and simply walking around. I recommend getting off the main street and walking two or three blocks away from the main street for the best cultural experience. There's great restaurants and shops to be found. In Falmouth, one of my favorite excursions was the Hilton Rose Hall http://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2011/09/15/excursion-focus-hilton-rose-hall-resort-spa-day-pass josiejojo 1 Quote
DocLC Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 We've den a number of different things in Cozumel. One of our favorites was a cooking class that was all-inclusive and was at a beach club so that you could enjoy the beach activities afterwards. josiejojo 1 Quote
jlynn222 Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 In cozumel I love the thriller jet boat ride..than we usually walk around the shops and go and eat at Lamission. Quote
markinct Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Has anyone done any of the Mayan ruins excursions? It seems like a lot of travel time for a short time at Tulum... Quote
jlynn222 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 That's why we didn't go because of the travel time ... Quote
Marc Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 We did a Mayan ruins excursion back on Oasis of the Seas in 2010 when she went to Costa Maya (since Falmouth wasn't yet ready for her). The excursion was quite nice, but the bugs were horrible, and I forgot my bug spray (I grabbed two sunscreen sprays instead). Fortunately, my friend brought extra. I don't have any experience with excursions in Tulum, though. markinct 1 Quote
DocLC Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Tulum is awesome, but it is a lot of travel for a short visit. I don't remember wanting/needing more time there, but it didn't allow much time for anything else since at least four hours will be spent getting there and back on top of your time at the ruins. markinct and josiejojo 2 Quote
MICHELLE Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 yep agree on the bugs for the Mayan ruins, it made the visit not that fun - there are some small one's on Cozumel you can seeI liked doing an island drive on Cozumel and eating out in town, jet boats are great too Labadee is a great relaxing day and its fun to sit on the beach and watch the zipliners coming in markinct, josiejojo, bkirkham and 1 other 4 Quote
jlynn222 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 The thriller jet boat does nose dives and 360 degree turns ..it's amazing and you get a video of your ride..you will get soaked on this ride but it's a blast:) markinct 1 Quote

Seems very interresting ! How much time would you allow for a taxi to take you back to the ship in time at the end of your day if you choose not to use the transportation package. Quote
