Dream Eastern Itinerary- Is It Worth It?

Is the Dream's eastern itinerary (Key West, Nassau, Freeport and three sea days) worth it? I feel like it would be a more relaxed cruise than other eastern cruises.

To me it is a pretty awful itinerary. Now if they went to GT and HMC and got rid of Nassau and Freeport my opinion would change in a heartbeat.

Not sure what you mean by worth it. If the cost is right and you are looking just to get away, that would suit most anyone’s needs who enjoyed Carnival. If you are worried about the ports, we love Key West and have yet to run out of things to do in Nassau or Freeport for that matter. Many chose to stay on board on those stops if they have been before. But that’s not us. Though on a recent getaway, out shore excursions were cancelled in both ports. So in Nassau we went to the Hilton but in Freeport just stayed on board. It was still a great trip despite those disappointment.

We've done that itinerary and it's our least favorite. Regardless, it was still a great cruise.

One of my top 10 Caribbean beaches of many is

Gold Rock Beach...at Freeport .....google it.....natural and pristine

We have done this itinerary on the Dream and enjoyed ourselves but admittedly booked it for the Key West stop. Most complain about Nassau/Freeport but we found plenty to do although in Freeport you must leave the port area. Both had nice beaches not too far away with a quick taxi ride. Sometimes I think it's what you make it and if you expect a good time you will have a great time.

I love this itinerary. Good snorkeling at Freeport, lovely beaches in Nassau, and I love Key West.

Sailing from Galveston there are 3 sea days, 2 of them at the end, and that's perfect for me.

We used to like the western itinerary more(love Cozumel), but that changed after a while, the eastern itinerary is now our #2 after the southern route! We just dislike Belize, and are tired of Mahogany Bay and Grand Cayman!:D
