Creator's Key Takeaways
I highly highly recommend tuken tours if you're going to do the same thing that we did
the water is absolutely beautiful now I'm not going to be able to go to the beach access with only one hour here
I feel absolutely safe I felt safe with Carlos as our tour guide
we saved about $80 USD by booking through Trip Advisor instead of Royal Caribbean
Creator's Tips & Advice
✓Book excursions through Trip Advisor to save money compared to booking through the cruise line
✓As soon as you disembark, go to the right side of the facility for excursions to bypass the port gauntlet
✓Ask taxi drivers for the price before getting in to avoid sticker shock
