Cruise! Oct 4, 2011 - Cozumel Bar Hop

In 8 cruises, I’ve never really booked an independent excursion outside of the one time I went to Roatan and we hired a taxi for the day. I was a little worried about booking a bar hop that would leave us with only a 30 minute buffer to be back to the ship before it set sail. With prayers said and fingers crossed – and the trust in all the positive online reviews, we booked with www.cozumelbarhop.com and sent our $20 deposits to strangers in Cozumel in advance of the cruise. 

When we arrived in Cozumel, we followed the instructions on our confirmation emails, which led us out of the port area, down the street, and to a 7-11 convenience store as a meeting point. Ryan and Dana were with me and Jason, and with this being their first cruise and first port – I think they were wondering if they’d make it back to the ship with all their organs still intact. I reassured them that there were hundreds of positive reviews for this tour and not to worry. I could see how they’d be a little concerned!  READ MORE...

Here´s the long version of our tour! We hope you enjoy and get an idea about the experience, It´s real hoppers having fun!

On this island lived priest and nobles, Ix-Chel was the Goddess. The  Mayans use to worship in Cozumel. In Mayan mythology Ixchel was the goddess of love, of pregnancy, of textile works, moon and medicine. The Mayans who lived on land had to come at least one time in there life to thank the goddes for the blessings they received.

When their children were born, The mayans would come to the Island with the goddess and then the Priest would show them which would be there profession or what they would dedicate themselfs to in life.

It is also said that women who could not have children, would come and ask for the blessing of the goddess and she would grant them their wish.
