Do you recommend ship Excursions or trying to organize your own? We are traveling nieuw amsterdam eastern caribbean in april.

Depends what you want to do! Beaches, shopping and walking about are all easily doable on your own...no need for any excursion at all.

 

Let us know what you're considering...and we'll tell you how we've done it! Generally, "tours" are not great for young kids...they don't care and won't cooperate! Beaches and quick things are best for the very young. Things you can do on your own timetable!

 

A guidebook will really help you make the right decision for your family. Get one. Libraries have them, or you can buy one at any bookstore...or go online and check out your ports!

St Maarten-Bernard's tour

San Juan - no idea ?

Nassau - beach day?
