memis5 Posted June 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2011 We will be taking our first cruise. Our ship will stop at the following ports/cities. If possible, we would like to visit/explore them on our own. Could any experienced travellers offer any adivces? We will be sailing on Celebrity Constellation. Thanks!!
