What a great idea of the floaties for the pool. We’re going to Tulum in May god willing and we love the pool but we need something to hang on to this is an awesome idea. Great video thanks

@Joy-mm3cz Год назад

Love the stick sunscreen and inflatable pool float. I’m going to order both.

@isabellarf11 Год назад

@mallorybair1004 Год назад

Wow!! Thank you for these tips!! A lot of videos are the same packing tips, but you had a ton that I hadn’t thought of!

@missmayflower 5 месяцев назад

Your personal item tote should always have a zipper. Things can drop out of that open top under the seat or in the taxi or you could be pickpocketed.

@duckspond-douglasslade5054 2 года назад

Wow! Those floaties look awesome, gettin some for sure!!! Sunscreen in a stick!!?? Cool!!! Didn't even know they had that. Another good tip to go with paying tips in local currency is to use local currency everywhere you go.. I found that to be the cheapest way to pay. The exchange you get everywhere is to their benefit and not yours, of course. So paying with pesos is way easier and easy on the brain converting too, lol. Great video, cheers!!!

@alysmalls 2 года назад

totally agree! thanks for the tip :)

@christopherklein8434 Год назад

great tip!

@chrisinnes2128 Месяц назад

That depends on the country you are in as in some countries you can't drink the tap water

@charm8167 Год назад

I like to bring a few adjustable mattress straps to hold the beach towel in place just clip around the back of your lounger. No more towels blowing off down the beach.

@charm8167 4 месяца назад

They are better than sun-bed clips and they last years.

In Canada you can order Mexican pesos and US from your bank a couple of weeks ahead, and request small bills.

@Timetravel1111 Год назад

Great intro yes I have had that feeling where I forgot something and that’s why I was looking for videos so I can be prepared and make sure I have the most important items. Passport and ID swimsuit to pair of underwear one dress 👗 minimum shorts 🩳 tank! And sombrero!! 👒 ohh shoes 👟 😊

@DreamGirl650 6 месяцев назад

S Ii nglasses, hat, sunscreen, cash. Got it.

@alexiagautier2383 Год назад

I am going to use mexican pesos for what I have left but will also be bringing USD. I saw some pointers about new bills (my local bank has mentioned since the pandemic they have not really received new bills). I am worried the older smaller change will not be sufficient due to not being crisp and some with some ink markings or someone writing on them.What are your thoughts?

@mariagents9575 11 месяцев назад

Omg yea my husband looses a pair every trip and always the Ray-Ban or Oakley makes me so mad . Marshall’s is my go to so I can get hats sunglasses

@kevink3461 Год назад

Do you have a video on top all inclusive resorts in PV? Thanks for the vids.

I haven't done a video comparing all the top resorts, but we had a lovely time at the Grand Palladium Vallarta here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UKU5BLQRYIA.html

Hi 👋 thank you so much for the tips...We are going to cancun in April what are the covid restrictions? Going to mexico and coming back to florida..Florida.. Do we need proof of vaccination or just negative test? Thanks 😊

@alysmalls 2 года назад

Hi! Masking is still required in public areas, but other than that you should be fine. No negative test or proof of vaccination required to enter Mexico. To go back home to Florida, you will need a negative viral test (rapid antigen) within one day of travel, so basically the day before departure.

@charisselavell4119 2 года назад

Love the chair clips. Where is your bag from?

@alysmalls 2 года назад

to be honest, i can't remember! i've had it for years!!

Depends what you're looking for! If I have a better idea of your travel style and what type of vacation you want I can recommend some places

How do you recommend getting pesos and get the best exchange rate?

@heatherdewar4002 Год назад

Hi! Cute sunnies, they look just like my ray ban pair. I would rather not bring those in case I lose or break them. Can you please link the ones you are wearing from Amazon?!

We’re going to Cancun in June. I’d like more info on tipping. Where did you get currency? In the US? How much do you recommend? What’s the %?

Hello i have a question for you i have much the same hat that i am bringing to Jamaica, how do i pack a hat?

@alysmalls Год назад

I wore mine on the plane and then placed it under the seat. You can also pack it in your suitcase by placing it upside down and then filling it with soft items so it doesn't squish

@peterquartararo3249 8 месяцев назад

all inclusive has gratuities included.

@StephanieGrace19 2 года назад

* bring cash and don’t go to the atms (unless it is at a bank). A LOT of atms in Mexico have skimmers in touristy areas. (Learned this from my friend who lives there full time)

@alysmalls 2 года назад

Great tip - I included this exact comment in my Mexico travel tips video :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UdPnv4QBljU.html

@peterquartararo3249 7 месяцев назад

Most of the resorts at Punta Cana have gratuities included! I only bring money to tip the bartenders.

@yegheieu Месяц назад

From my understanding they much prefer we just gove them the US dollar, and that its not a big deal

@sandrienpollaris3925 2 года назад

Please read the rules of your airline/airport though because most airports in Europe do count sticks as a liquid!

The Pacific Ocean beaches are often way too rough with undertow and often full of jellyfish and alligators. No joke.

@Tigerist Год назад

@missmayflower 5 месяцев назад

It’s really rude to tip in foreign currency. Those people work long hours six days a week. It’s a real hardship for them to spend their day off standing in the long lines at the bank to change the money. If you give them pesos, they can use it right away, anywhere. If you go off the resort, you’re see the long lines at the banks.
