A Guide to Cozumel Vacations
What kind of traveler are you? Do you want everything handled
for you so all you have to do is arrive at the airport on time
and everything else is already arranged? Or do you like to be a
hands-on manager of your vacation planning? Do you want to
arrive at your luxury hotel with your time scheduled out in
advance - massage at 3, dinner at 6, dancing at 8 - or do you
prefer to arrive at your efficiency suite, grab the local yellow
pages and let the adventure begin? Whatever it is you want,
however you like to travel, as long as you enjoy beautiful
island paradises, great food, a choice of adventures to
experience and friendly people, you'll find it on Cozumel. Start
with a travel agent in the town or city where you live. Cozumel
is such a well-traveled area that many vacation packages, from
the simple to the lush, from the relaxed to the vigorous, are
readily available through companies that specialize in arranging
them.
By booking packages you can save time and money and be assured
of getting exactly what you want out of your precious vacation
time. First tier packages include airfare, transportation
(either a rental car or a prepaid service to take you to your
hotel and back to the airport) and a hotel room. Second tier
packages include all of your food, drink and rental cars if
needed - all arranged for and prepaid in advance (remember
tipping is usually not included). Third tier vacation packages
include the activities, if any, you would like to experience on
the island while you are there. You can prepay for scuba
excursions and lessons, snorkeling adventures, day trips to
visit the ruins on the Yucatan Peninsula, babysitting and
adventures for the kids, massages and essentially anything else
you can think of for your maximum pleasure. The advantage of
arranging all this in advance is that you won't have to do it
when you arrive and you'll probably save some money as well.
Vacation packages deal in volume and hence they get discounts
for all of the goods and services they provide. All of them mark
up their costs, of course, but still, you'll end up saving money
by going through them. You can even schedule free time to relax
or try some new experiences you hadn't planned for. You decide.
After all, it's not only your money, it's also your vacation,
and you should get exactly what you want at exactly the price
you would expect to pay.
