Creator's Key Takeaways

We only spent $50 total for both of us. We rented a scooter and we went out and had the best tacos in town.

We love Cosmo. We've been here probably 10 or 15 times.

The point of these video series is to show you that you can go on a cruise for next to nothing.

It was only 25 bucks. It was much cheaper than any of the other ones that we passed along the way.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Rent a scooter for $25 to explore Cozumel cheaply.
Walk outside the port area to find cheaper transportation options.
Try Diego Tacos for affordable and delicious local food.
