We were originally going to do the rainforest hike, but after reading how that area was affected we decided to change to the one we did. We loved the rainforest when we were there pre hurricane. Can’t imagin how it has been devastated by that disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted January 26, 2019 #27 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Vegasdriven (sorry, my iPad insists on capitalizing the first letter in your “name”) - I am late in thanking you for your wonderful blog. It. Is always good to see people come on to CC to ask questions and learn about Regent and then enjoy the cruise. Hope to sail with you one day!

Rare boblerm Posted January 26, 2019 #28 Share Posted January 26, 2019 vegasdriven, I am very pleased that you had such a good time on your first Regent cruise, and loved following! Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeressex Posted February 18, 2019 #29 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Thanks for the details. We are joining Voyager on Saturday - do you remember if any options are available after disembarkation as we have a whole day in Miami before our BA flight in the evening. We are scheduled for the zipline also so hope the maintenance will be completed before we arrive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegasdriven Posted February 18, 2019 Author #30 Share Posted February 18, 2019 badgeressex - sorry, I can't answer that question for you, though I think I saw somewhere that there are no excursions after disembarking unless you are carrying on with the next cruise. I suggest you ask this in a separate post, because here are certainly many more experienced passengers who will be happy to help with this. Is this your first time Regent? If so, you are in for a lovely time. Unfortunately, I had to try a little bit of everything, so still fighting to get those extra pounds (what do you call them- stone?😀 Actually, not fighting hard enough🙄 PLEASE post about you zip line, we will just have to live vicariously!

The bus operator stores your luggage during the day and will then transfer you to the airport. Not the most luxurious experience but it is a good way to use up the time. Destination Services on board will be able to confirm if this option will be available to you. Enjoy your cruise 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Included, i.e. no charge, if you booked your flights through Regent. If you arranged your own flights then the option may still be available for a charge, but not sure how much.

Rare RachelG Posted February 19, 2019 #37 Share Posted February 19, 2019 when they send out that post cruise debarkation form where you have to list what your plans on disembarkation day, the options for excursions will be listed along with the cost.

badgeressex Posted March 11, 2019 #38 Share Posted March 11, 2019 We disembarked the ship and there was a Big Bus rep straight outside immigration. For $59 pp they took us to Bayside Marketplace, stored our cases all day, included the HOHO tours and offered a choice of 3 departures ( 1pm, 3pm and 5pm I believe) to the airport - I think the same through RSS was $123pp. Great value and easy way to deal with transfers, luggage storage and killing a few hours till your flight. Vegasdriven - the zipwire was rather underwhelming - great views from the top but quite a wait for your turn - they give you a group number when you get off the cable car. I suffer from vertigo and was rather nervous but apart from the first second when it starts it is just a ride down not especially fast - it depends on your expectations but rollercoasters etc are much faster and scarier in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
