We are first time cruisers, and all of the shore excursion offerings are overwhelming! We are visiting 1) Great Stirrup Cay, 2)St Thomas, 3)San Juan PR, and 4)Amber Coast Dominican Rep. What do you recommend we choose to do? We are not limited by fitness level. Since the exclusions are costly, we likely won't choose an excursion for each port...so which ports are great for self-guided vs ports that we should definitely book an excursion? Any experience with private (non-NCL) tours? Please telll me all of your tips for these ports of call! Thank you!! We are cruising March 10-17 so I want to get any excursions booked ASAP. Also, how do you get onto one of the first tender boats (or first disembark groups) to maximize your shore day? Again, first time cruiser so we are clueless. Please help and thank you!!
