But it was canceled. We were booked on Hurtigruten, on a ship with only 100 pax. Ours was going to be on Princess. We have had our best cruises on Princess, though I would have preferred a smaller ship than the Crown for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurtigruten is a Norwegian company and these cruises carry cargo and day passengers. We first traveled on them to Antarctica two years ago. Our ship had 400 pax so we could actually disembark and did on four different days. And got taken to shore and other boating about in zodiak-type boats. The big ships aren't allow to due to a treaty.

I seem to recall you posting that you were not a “Caribbean type” — but if you ever wanted a winter getaway , St. Maarten (Dutch)/St. Martin (French) is a place to go - the Dutch side - not so much, but the eating options on the French side are amazing. If you wanted a “higher end” experience, nearby French (actually considered part of Overseas France) St. Barth’s would be the place to go — no large cruise ships are permitted there.

I always go to the French side. Two great beaches on the French side, Orient and Pinel Island. And Marigot is better than Philipsburg.

I was there on Crystal Symphony in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
