Honeymoon_cruisers Posted February 26, 2005 #3 Share Posted February 26, 2005 sorry I didnt answer about Nassau or Tortola. The popular thing in Tortola is to catch a ferry over to V.Gorda Baths. In Nassau either enjoy Atlantis or there is plenty of beautiful beaches to choose from. It all depends on if you have young ones or older teens. I have done a ton of research on the different ports and have some info. Feel free and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honeymoon_cruisers Posted February 26, 2005 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2005 In St. Thomas I would recommend the Godfrey tour. He will pick you up at the Ship either 9,10, or 11 am depending on how much time you want to shop. He has a pickup point from shopping at noon, he then gives you a two hour tour of the island. Around 2pm you get to select which beach to go to (If you want) He will drop you off at the beach of your choice and pick you up again around 4pm to get you back to the ship. While in Tortola I would recommend Virgin Gorda Baths, the kids will love hiking through the hugh boulders. There also is a straw market in Tortola that I would visit on the way back from the "Baths". In Nassau, You could either do a day pass(rent a room) at Atlantis and enjoy its amenities. Personally I enjoy the local beaches as opposed to the Vegas style glitzy hotel thing(Atlantis). The Jitney bus will take you to all the beaches you need. $1 pp each way. A cab will do the same for about $10-12. We will be coming from a week in Disneyworld so we are really looking forward to relaxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suemag Posted February 26, 2005 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2005 We're going! we're going! Can't wait! I want to do the horseback riding in the water but haven't really thought about the other stuff. The sunset cruise and the pirate cruise looks neat. Have you booked your excursions yet?

Honeymoon_cruisers Posted February 26, 2005 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Just booked our horseback ride on HMC. All other excursions we plan on going with other vendors than HAL. A lot cheaper and more personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRich2 Posted February 26, 2005 #9 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I have been looking at this cruise and wondered about the amount of teens on board. I will be bring two 16 year old girls and wondered if they would find enough other teens to hang with. Last HAL cruise I took was mainly seniors. We are either going to book Royal on the 18th or HAL on the 25th. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
