lostfancruiser Posted December 17, 2017 #81 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I agree with Sea Raven. Our beach day on Jost Van Dyke was one of the most relaxing days we've ever had. So sad to see the damage caused by the hurricanes. We so hope to go back one day and see things close to the way they were before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louhut Posted December 17, 2017 #82 Share Posted December 17, 2017 America's cup 12 metre race in St Maarten. Best excursion ever! My DH favorite one also. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upinthehills Posted December 17, 2017 #83 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Whale watching in Juneau. We had one breach right next to our boat and it was magical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuppettmd Posted December 18, 2017 #84 Share Posted December 18, 2017 My all time favorite was Stingray City with Stingray Sailings on Grand Caymen. We were the first ones there and had unlimited squid to feed the rays. It was Great! My second best was a Nassau city tour with Perry McPhee. He took us everywhere and spent four hours with us.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-train Posted December 18, 2017 #85 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Tough to choose one. We loved HMC, and the cabana we rented. What a beautiful place! We also loved going to Blue Lagoon, swimming with the dolphins and hanging out on the beach. Paradise! Would love to go to both islands again someday!

no1racefan1 Posted December 18, 2017 #86 Share Posted December 18, 2017 We have only ever booked ship excursions and have never had less than a fantastic time, over three different cruise lines! My top three would be: Helicopter ride to the top of a glacier/dog sled camp--in Alaska through Princess Rainforest and waterfall hike--in Maui through NCL Volcano hike--in Hilo through NCL All of these ended up being small (less than 10 people) excursions and our guides in Hawaii were especially awesome! I'll never forget hiking across a volcano on my birthday and stopping to see a black sand beach on the way back to the ship. Or standing beneath a waterfall in Maui, or riding a dog sled on top of a glacier in Alaska :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InitialD Posted December 18, 2017 #88 Share Posted December 18, 2017 1) Taxi to Dunn's river falls. Got there just as a nasty rain storm ended so there was nobody on the falls - we had the falls all to ourselves. 2) Water taxi to Caye Caulker in Belize. Charming place. 3) Nachi Cocom is always my favorite relaxing all-inclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleYiaYia Posted December 18, 2017 #89 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Did you book this through Carnival? Or someone else? Thanks! I don't know about doctorsbaby but we booked this through Celebrity in 2011. I noticed that it is available through Carnival for our cruise next February 2018. Our friends took it through RC last January and also raved about it. You certainly get your money's worth. I don't know if it can be booked independently.

HeidiHo Posted December 19, 2017 #92 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Zip lining in Puerto Vallarta. We did it twice while on a land tour there but at the time, it was with the same tour operator (Vallarta Adventures) that Carnival used. I don't know if they still use them but they did back then. It was really fun and they were very safety conscious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1994te Posted December 19, 2017 #93 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Our two favorites have been... Jamaica- booked a private driver to take us to Blue Hole. A very beautiful place and so much better than Dunn’s River Falls and no where near as crowded. Dominica- another private tour. This was with Bumping Tours. The excursion was called Roseau Valley Treasures. Snorkeling at Champagne reef, and Titou Gorge were awesome. Some of Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed there.

Bobbylah Posted December 19, 2017 #96 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Ours would either be our four with Capt Bob Cass in St Maarten, which included an island tour by boat, snorkeling, lunch on the beach at a Creole Cafe on the French side of St Maarten, and a visit to Maho Beach as the big jets came in.. Absolutely this one. Little pricey for a family of 5, but well worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaiTaiMary Posted December 21, 2017 #98 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Ours was independently booked excursions in the Med in Italy.....hired a driver and nothing has come even close to those we took in Italy as to what we covered and what we saw! Which city was this and do you remember who you booked it through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ontheweb Posted December 21, 2017 #99 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Best private excursion---2 day Alla comfort tour in St. Petersburg, Russia. Best cruise line excursion---I'd be hard pressed to pick between 2 very different ones. 1. Carnival--Bob Marley bus tour in Jamaica. 2. Princess---Canterbury from Dover to Heathrow Airport.

TheTravelingSquirrel Posted December 21, 2017 #100 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Swimming with whale sharks in Cozumel was hands down the most amazing experience I have ever been on and I am not sure I will ever find an excursion to top it. It is hard to explain how it feels swimming along with 20+ foot animals in the open ocean off of Mexico... a mix of humbling and exhilarating. If you have the chance to go I highly suggest it. The water was choppy on the day we went (although the deeper the water the more choppy it is going to be anyways) so the excursion was physically taxing - it is difficult to swim and snorkel in choppy water. My husband and I were a little unsure about this excursion for several reasons: the price, the possibility of not even seeing any whale sharks at all, and the fact that we would be swimming in open water with these giants (no matter how gentle they are). This turned out to be an unforgettable experience and we will treasure those memories forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
