We are going on a 7 day cruise over Thanksgiving and are leaving from a local port so we won't be flying. We are planning on leaving our car with both carseats at the pier for transport to and from our home. My concern is how to safely transfer between the cruise ship and excursions in port. We would prefer not to book excursions through the cruise because they are a lot more expensive. So the question is what is the safest way to get to our excursion with the 2 kids? My daughter is 3 and my son is 16 months. They are both currently in Marathon seats and that is all we have. We would prefer not to have to bring these on the ship for storage reasons (and also I don't know what we would do with them while we were on our excursions). We will be in Mexico (Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo) so is there any way to find public transportation that includes car seats or is that just not possible? The other option would be to take a public bus, but I'm not sure if that is any safer down there. Any help appreciated! Thanks!
