My beautiful wife has it really figured out!  Do all your research and reservations on-line (not the HA website)  and save a TON of cash!  Just surf the web, look around, google zip line in PV.  Pick one

 

 

Love her so much!!

Go to HAL web site, click on booked guests - have your Olivia booking number - click on book excursions. It's in PV - there is a canopy tour with zip lines and then the more involved outdoor challenge. Sounds like alot of fun...check in out!

Someone mentioned the Outdoor challenge. How do we book that? On the Holland ship website?

I am also a fan of spontaneously winging it!

We looked at Holland America's web-site and then TripAdvisor.com and looked at the reviews there.  We booked the canopy excursion (zip lining) in PV. Based on the reviews, they say it's great....one of the best things to do in PV.  Other than that, we're going to wing it at the other two ports and looking forward to meeting others doing the same. 

Counting down !!!  We can't believe it's almost here !! (with three kids....we're counting the hours at this point !!)

In PV, we are doing the Yelapa & Majahuitas tour.  It has almost everything in one trip: 2 amzaing locations, boating, waterfalls, exploring nature on land, exploring nature in the water with kayaking and snorkeling, food, and lounging on a beach.  It has been highly recommended by previous Olivia cruisers.

For everything else, we are going to book when we get to each port.  We are frugal wiht our money and you can always get the same trips offered on cruises for less on shore.  Since my girl speaks Spanish we are set!

We are doing the kayak and snorkle in Cabo.  In Mazatlan we will be doing the city tour and in PV we are doing two islands that I can not pronounce the name.  It should all be fun!!!

We are doing the outdoor challenge. Take a 4x4, then a mule, then a short hike to do the zip lines, rappel down a waterfall ... we can't wait. This will be in PV. Cabo will be kayak and snorkle and taking it easy in Mazaltan. Anyone else doing these excursions?

We did a Zip line excursion in Alaska, the only bad part is it had to end.  Saw bears fishing for Salmon from one of the platforms.  Not sure what you'll see in Mexico!

Once you have your booking number you can go to Hollandamerica.com to book them.  If you don't have the booking number or you just want to view what is available in each port you can go to the same website.  You will not be able to see what is still available if you are just browsing though.

I would really love to do a zip line tour.  Does anyone have any information about how I would go about booking that?  I haven't received any information in the mail about the cruise or anything so I feel kind of like I am still a little in the dark about all the great things that will be available.
