The lowdown on Spring Break VIP Party Packages for South Padre & Cancun Part I.

We get alot of questions about spring break party packages and questions of if they are "worth it" or not. I can tell you now that the packages have been greatly enhanced as you're about to read from even 5 years ago.

South Padre Island, Texas

I am starting here as only Inertia Tours offers a party package on South Padre Island for spring break.
We call it the Red Carpet VIP Party Package - and yes, we really do have Red Carpet VIP Entrance each night.

In a nutshell, this package includes a different nightclub or bar each night inertia directs everyone to go to, generally a high end DJ or theme, and until 11 pm, guests get true separate entrance with their ticket. After 11 pm, ticket holders still get in free they just have to wait in the pay long, which can be quite a wait. Hence arriving before 11 key.

Clubs included are Louies Backyard, Isla Grand Pool Party, Clayton's & more.

You also get a choice of 2 side trip activities you pick when you arrive of 6. Things like the booze cruise, the infamous thursday beach bash at Peninsula, thriller jet boat ride, surfing lesson, dolphin watch tour or bay fishing trip.

The Good on the South Padre VIP Party Package

• Parties are guaranteed to be largest any night. (understand not much of a guarantee as Inertia Spring Break brings down to South Padre 12xs more students than EVERY OTHER travel entity combined --- so it's not much of a "guarantee" but nonetheless it exists).
• Mega clubs & parties. Louies & Clayton's hold 5000 people These are not small parties like Puerto Vallarta has or even say Sharkeys in Panama City. 5000 deep is CONCERT large. 
• DJ sets are solid to world class. DJ Skribble, MTV Spring Break's DJ Legacy, DJ Dirty formerly from Maxim Magazine, DJ Silver (Jason Aldeen's DJ) + more. 
• Wild wet tee shirt contest on Saturday night party...only place you will find these. Other destinations have gotten so "high end" with their "DJs" they have gotten too high end for some good clean FUN 
• The side trips are included. Partying/drinking your face off is fine...but look, it does/will get old. Being able to have something to do included increases your chances of meeting an attractive fellow partier in a fun setting. It also means you have some pictures of value to bring home to the parentals that paid for this trip. Drinking is great, but it's not everything. Other destinations now maybe have ONE side trip included, and even that is the booze cruise - all focused on booze. Sorta gets old!
• No stupid dress codes. The idea you have to wear long slacks and dress shoes as a guy to go out at night at a beach bar is absolutely absurd. When did we all get so NYC with things? Other destinations are too stuffy. South Padre is laid back. 
• Clubs/bars are 18+ to enter so you don't have to leave your minor friends home

 The Bad on the South Padre VIP Party Package

• Texas (like Florida) has a 21+ drinking age. Don't blame us...call you Senator.
• Parties at night are NOT open bar, all you can drink like Mexico. Means you will spend some money on drinks despite having this package. There is a big upside...drinks are watered down]
• Clubs/bars are pretty much 50% outside. Inclement weather can creep up. Not common but possible.
• Transportation not included to clubs at night. Cabs are $4/person to go anywhere but it's still money

This list isn't super long --- reason being Inertia parties are what's up on South Padre Island

 Cancun, Mexico

Next up is Cancun, the #1 international spring break destination in the world. Cancun's "VIP Party Packages" vary alot.

The Cheapskate Package:

There are the $30/night variety, that just get you into "some club" on usually an off night with watered down "open bar" from 10 pm to 2 am. You have to wait in line with your ticket, then once you get in, wait in lines for the "free" drinks which usually are really limited and of the worst kind of liquor quality.  Look, if you are at a quality all inclusive hotel, this isn't a bad deal with covers at night $50 alone. You can drink at hotel before you go.


The "Mr. DJ Raver"

Then, you have the $45/night variety, that do the above, but the slap on some sort of "music" or DJ element with a name. We won't name them or people will email us bitching, but generally it is ONE DJ you have heard of, and 6 others you haven't. The utilize creative photography to make it look like you'll see TIESTO every single night. You can add a private table with bottle service, each bottle is about $175/bottle. Ouch. These "DJ" intense parties usually are 100 guys to every girl. Bad for that...

Traveo's Package
 
Finally, you have what Inertia Tours offers exclusively, the TRAVEO Red Carpet VIP Party Package.
What sets this apart? Tons. For one, transportation from two different main spring break hotels is included with TRAVEO staff....Grand Oasis Cancun & Gran Caribe Real. Here is the other piece of TRAVEO, you are dealing with an Ownership group that is from Mexico...these guys speak fluent English and Spanish..you are dealing with local club guys...obviously their service is like 99 times better than any US spring break company can provide.

At night, if you are on Inertia's Red Carpet Party Package, you get a reserved table. Not just a reserved table, but in THE BEST sections of the club. How do I know this? I was in Cancun last year at Dady O's (now Pink Kitty) and was like..who the F are these guys running this place!! (running I mean their people were actually being treated as VIPs) ..."oh, TRAVEO yeah they are the shit!" I'm like hold on...Inertia Tours people need to be "the shit" too. So, I got an introduction to Nacho & Oscar at TRAVEO

TRAVEO runs Cancun VIPs at night. Not a maybe. 

...the rest is history. Deal struck. Ok getting back to the TRAVEO package...not only do you get a reserved table with private server EVERY SINGLE NIGHT...here is what seems like I'm a liar...you get UNLIMITED sealed bottles (yes, vodka, tequila, rum, not crap liquor either) and all mixers from 10 pm to 2 am. Yeah....how is this possible? According to TRAVEO - easy. People at some point simply have had enough to drink. Are you going to pop bottles and walk around the club filling up people with absolut? No. That is monitored. Who cares? It's not your job to keep other people happy. You and your friends WILL BE HAPPY.

Further, TRAVEO has a minimum of 4 staffers in the club at all times, AND 4 security outside the club checking for our VIPs making sure everyone is safe. There are departures back to the hotels every hour on the hour, but if someone is sick/needs to go in between, they have 2 wrapped suburbans to take you. Same sex staff people escort girls on our trips back as well as that's common sense.

Also, the party will not end at 2 am. All of our students on the Red Carpet Package in Cancun also get NO COVER to the after party Mandala Beach Club from 3 to 6 am. Yes, we also have staff there with TRAVEO.

With TRAVEO, you also get open bar, free drinks daily at the jagermeister/TRAVEO beach stage in front of the Gran Caribe Real hotel from 1 pm to 6 pm. Below is a video of this stage:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sreN2gnLeno

Sure if you are on all inclusive at your hotel, getting free drinks at the beach/dj stage might not seem like a big deal but hey...trudging up the hotel up 4 flights of stairs tipsy is no fun either. It really does add value.

So, I dogged on the other two packages (the cheapskate and the "Mr. DJ Raver" package) and pointed out clearly that TRAVEO is superior. That's great..but it's also the most expensive...well, it's more expensive at the beginning, but by the end of your trip, not only will you have had a less stressful, better experience with TRAVEO, we can pretty much guarantee you you will have spent less money, had more fun, and been safer.

Yes, TRAVEO also includes a party cruise, it's on a 100' PLUS triple decker catamarran, all you can eat and drink but way better..during the day for 3 hours..has a MASSIVE loopy loop waterslide off the back, lifeguard on board...stays in hotel zone...not the mosquito infested trip to Isla Mujeres at night to eat nasty inedible buffet food and waterdown terrible drinks...yeah the cheapskate and raver packages have that...another reason we DO NOT offer them....

Look - TRAVEO's VIP is roughly $50 to $55/night. As you can see...barely more. You Cancun Spring Break veterans clearly see difference between tipping for terrible drinks on the cheapskate or raver package

and getting into this IMMEDIATELY with a reserved table at the City:

Frustrated chumps get the raver or cheapskate....so do rookies to Cancun spring break ....thinking "who cares about VIP tables!" well, when you have to wait 30 mins to use the rest room, 20 mins to get a drink, your entire night is blown wandering around. Over 5 to 7 nights that's BIG TIME annoying.

Buying $175 bottles...heck if it's you plus 3 guys..you need 3 to 4 bottles in Cancun...say it's just 2 bottles...that's $80/person EVERY NIGHT plus you gottaaaaa tip....means $100/person a night...means the raver and cheapskate has a REAL COST for guys wanting to go all out for a week of  $715 plus cab fare....ouch!! Why people say Cancun is so expensive. It is if you try to cut corners!

Don't take my word for it...ask someone that has DONE cancun spring break. Girls might read this and say..hey we don't need a table guys will feed us drinks. Great. Hang out with douche bags all night playing grab ass for a vodka tonic, that sounds like alot of fun. Have your own table and bottle and pick and choose WHAT guys YOU want to talk to. Security will scoot the losers along if they are bothering you too.

The Good on the Cancun VIP Party Package

• All inclusive of drinks
• World class nightclubs and venues
• Unlimited bottles in bottle service with private tables from 10 pm to 2 am.
• TRUE vip entrance, not this wait in a line with your ticket like the other guys have!
• Transportation to/from the clubs
• Staffing at clubs by people that are bilingual. 
• Private TRAVEO security
• After party free at Mandala Beach Club every night
• Quality party yacht cruise best to meet & mingle
• TRAVEO/Jagermeister beach / dj stage with open bar from 1 pm to 6 pm daily

 The Bad on the Cancun VIP Party Package

•  $275 for 5 nights and $349 for 7 nights...while a great value, that's still a lot of money to a college student

We can't think of other drawbacks to this package. There are none.

Spring Break Travel Tips & Advice from a dude selling them for 20 years!

If you are reading this post you are probably considering staying in the US for spring break travel this year for various reasons. Maybe the financials on the homefront don’t allow you to ask for help paying for a trip that includes airfare so now you have to drive and pay for it yourself. Or, maybe you were thinking about Cancun for spring break but your parents said No way, Jose, due to safety concerns.
I’m a list guy, so here you go.

Tips:
 Climate & how warm the weather will be (or how much snow if you want to ski/board)
 Distance to drive is it 15 hours or 20 hours?

 Who’s vehicle are you taking? What sort of gas mileage does it get? Figure out how many gallons you will use and how much that will cost so you can divvy up expenses.

 How many nights are you going? IF you are driving 16 hours one way to get somewhere, staying only 4 nights might be stupid. Consider 5 or more nights.  Who will go? Are they responsible enough to make deposits and pay for the trip, or will they flake out?  Drama who’s the Queen or King of it, and should they be invited? Who’s the drunk guy? Are you sure you want to babysit him that far from home? Are boyfriends and girlfriends trying to travel on spring break together? It’s a bad idea in my 20 years of experience even if no one is smooching a new person on the beach.

Hotels vs. Condos. Condos make a lot of sense in domestic destinations as you can’t do all inclusive so you need a place to store your booze.

Payment options. Not to toot Inertia Tours horn but we let you put a deposit down, then pay off the trip 60 days before you leave making it more affordable. We also let people use their own credit cards for their own trips so no one ends up fronting the money and getting screwed. Car farters, Make sure the power windows work in the back.

Ground rule setting before you go. Don’t be a weiney and ask someone to drive their $30,000 SUV and then think you can smoke in it with the window down, leave trash inside, or drink in the car when they could get their ass thrown in jail over it. Don’t bring pot or coke or ecstasy down. If you get pulled over & searched that spring break is FUBAR. I’m not a moron, I know people do drugs and drink and drive. But don’t put that on someone else. Your own car is one thing, someone else’s just isn't.

Pre-trip planning. As you will always have one mooch or cheap ass in your group, pre plan. Tell everyone to save some money everybody brings ONE case of Beer and ONE bottle (handle) of SOME liquor so in the very least you aren't showing up with the Natty Light guy that won’t buy anything, sleeps with HIS beer under HIS pillow, won’t share, and steals everybody’s booze.Yeah, THAT guy. Girls are no different they can be cheaper than even guys.

Tips for Girls:
Please note this is brutally honest & somewhat offensive  however  you will be a lot happier on your trip if you look this over:

Go to the gym 60 days before the trip. Girls, at your age if you simply do the elliptical trainer and watch The Housewives of and do it with some zeal for 2 months you will drop weight and tone up. For God sake don’t walk on it and read. You gotta get into it some to burn some calories. Girls showing up fat and doing string bikinis isn't okay really. It’s like a fat dude in a speedo which is funny to guys, but no girl is hooking up with them. Side note:  IF YOU do the gym for 2 months, 4 times a week (even if strictly cardio) and 100% do not eat ANY fast food nor fried food you will look better. I’ll give you a spring break trip if you don’t and follow this. What has changed is guys showing up sporting FULL 6 to 8 packs and girls looking larger than ever in the last 10 years. Used to be exactly the opposite. Tanning. Yes it gives you cancer 40 years from now, but 3 weeks of 3 times a week won’t kill you, and you won’t get burned as easy.

 Have or buy at least one quality pair of sunglasses. Going as large as possible on the lenses isn't always the best idea. Get a hot guys opinion what looks good In my 20 years I always notice the trashy girls wear metallic shiny bikinis. Stay away from them. Get ONE plain black bikini as it won’t show stains or use as bad; Even if you sport a $300 bikini also get a $40 one at Target as a back-up. You never know you could lose your top on spring break LMFAO but I’m serious here.

 Don’t be a cock-block. If you have a friend that wants to hook up, don’t judge just make sure she’s safe, you know where she is going, with whom, and have the dudes cell phone number. Call him and watch it ring. That way you have more than one number/contact person. If you judge, then people sneak around and next thing you know, you DON’T KNOW where they are, you are panicking for no reason, etc. Is she too drunk to really be going with that guy? Then for sure stop her. Is it a guy you all sorta/kinda know? That’s a lot safer of course.

 Be friendly. The honest truth is 99% of guys are pretty shy. You don’t have to hit on them. Just make conversation and you’ll meet some new people and have fun. I see so many people not saying HI to people or just making general conversation and (like a bar) people are on spring break to meet other people. (yeah you are too) Dominate the bitches. You know you have one of them in your group. Dominate her from the start. Open fire the second she starts her complaining routine. This can make or break the rest of the week trip. Stay hydrated & take ONE NIGHT OFF drinking. Your body needs it. I can always tell girls that have been down for a week they look like death warmed over. Not sure why, but girls physically their body really can’t take alcohol like guys can, and it will show. Bring your own towel that’s unique. As the week goes on, towels become less and less available.

For the Dudes:
Don’t be a moron. Playboy conducted anonymous polls of students leaving spring break destinations and found that roughly 40% of guys had did something sexual with a girl, and about 15% of girls did something as well.

Two things about this:  1.) Guys over shoot & brag  2.) Girls undershoot and don’t

These two things bring this number to about 30% of people hook up in some fashion or another. A full 2/3rds don’t. HOWEVER, more than likely a few girls might have hooked up with more than one guy LOL. But don’t be a moron I mean don’t come down thinking you are going to bang 10 girls and it’s open season. It’s really not. You will need game. If you don’t get laid at your campus you won’t get laid on spring break.

Don’t fall in love.  I see this more with guys than with girls. You work this girl all week and fall in love.  Come on. She has a boyfriend and live 8 hours from you. It’s not gonna work bro. Not now, not ever.  Plus, this is spring break. If you target ONE girl, you should have ONE backup you like just in case. That’s spring break 101. Don’t get too drunk Yep. You have a girl that likes you, but suddenly you are flat out wasted. Yep, no hanky panky for you, no one wants to have some drunk dude drooling all over them or passing out in bed. Or worse yet, puking, shitting, or peeing the bed. Yep, they exist and YEP, not one year since 1993 has went by where I haven’t seen someone shit their pants because they were so drunk. Come on. Don’t be a mooch. Guys are really bad about this. Drink others beverages, eat their food, use their towels, etc. Don’t mooch off your friends. They don’t like it and you are a problem.

Don’t start or be involved with fights. On spring break, it’s not like your little gentle campus bar. These bouncers WILL kick your ass in the name of keeping the peace. AND then they call the cops, so not only is your ass beat, you are now in jail in out of state. You are F'd. Don’t be a F'd. If you have the angry drunk, just leave him at school. Don’t bring him. No one wants to be around that. It’s a buzz kill, girls don’t like it, and you can’t win a physical fight any way  you might pummel a dude but then you end up in jail. You still lose. See adage above about the gym. Have girl take you shopping for clothes before the trip including board shorts. I’ve found guys rarely have good taste with board shorts.
