Has anyone taken this tour through Holland America? Would it be similar to the Carnival excursion where someone noted only you only go to 4 waterfalls? We are traveling with children who would stay on the ship while we do the excursion, so we were considering going through the ship just to be safe. Thanks in advance for any advice!

We are traveling to Samana and Amber Cove at the end of November and this will be our first time traveling to these ports. I have read varying reviews about the islands and wanted to see if anyone could offer suggestions for a beach nearby the cruise port? We are traveling with our children (7 and 4 yo), so we are not looking to travel across the island and would like to ensure it is a safe area wherever we go. As far as beach, we are just looking for clean water, facilities, and possibly a place to purchase drinks.

Any other suggestions of tours or other activities suitable for families is also appreciated (i.e. short hiking, waterfalls).

Thanks so much!
