The experience

The day starts at the cliff divers, where you watch divers launch themselves from a 45-foot drop into the water below. Local artists sell souvenirs on-site, so you can pick up something before moving on. From there, the tour heads into the old town to see the Immaculate Conception Virgin Cathedral and its architecture, then walks into the Mexican open market: a sprawling maze of stalls where you'll find everything from handmade crafts and art to fresh fruit, vegetables, seafood and meat. The guide navigates the alleys with you and can point out what's worth stopping for.

The catamaran ride to Stone Island is where the day shifts into full relaxation mode. A local beachfront restaurant serves lunch and runs an open bar for the afternoon, so you're not hunting for food or deciding what to order. Before or after eating, you pick one activity: kayaking along the coast, a banana boat ride, horseback riding, or boogie boarding. The guide arranges everything and stays available if you need help with your family or have questions about what's happening. Six hours total gives you time to move through each stop without rushing.

An air-conditioned vehicle handles transport between sites, and bottled water is on hand throughout. The tour works for all fitness levels and families with small children can bring a stroller. If you're arriving on a cruise ship, there's a separate booking option timed to your ship's schedule.
