Jesus Is The Man

Safe to travel to Mexico on cruise?

My family and I are all traveling to Catalina and Baha Mexico over spring break. I've been hearing a lot of stuff about drug wars in Mexico and kidnapping tourists and stuff. I'm just really worried if it will be safe to travel to that area over spring break. I may just be paranoid, but please let me know if you know any information about this topic. Thank you!

For Charlie: for a Top Contributor you give a lot of advice about situations you have not the faintest idea . Who said anything about the drug gangs representing a danger to US tourists? They have indeed other things to do. The danger comes from common criminals (yes there are some in case didn't notice), and police and other authorities who will extort money, kidnap rob and in some instances kill tourists. Springbreakers are exposed to the risk of being extortioned under a series of non existing pretexts or worse put in jail after drugs were planted in their room/luggage. I live here and HAVE SEEN IT HAPPEN. Dont give advice about things you dont know.


Charlie
American tourists are NOT targets of Mexican drug gangs or Mexican police. The "drug wars" are between gangs and between gangs and police. They are also taking place in border towns. There is a huge amount of misinformation about this out there. You will be fine.

Very safe. Cruise lines pre select only the safest places to take their guests.
Enjoy yourself and Bon Voyage!!!


Time travler
I was in Mexico on a cruise last October. We were in Ensenada. I choose a shore excursion with the cruise company so I would not have to worry about drug lords, gangs and such. So my suggestion is to spend the extra money and ONLY go on shore excursions that are offered by the cruise ship. Then you would know you would be safe. BTW, my cruise company(Princess) told us NOT to wander around town, so, of course they do warn you, thank goodness.
