NWR: Cruise

FH and I just won a 7 day Royal Caribbean Cruise that goes from San Juan to Aruba, Curacao, St. Maarten, and St. Thomas in February. Has anybody been on this one or one like it? Anyone have any suggestions of certain excursions or things to do? TIA

I have done that cruise and looooved it!!!

I'd def do the dolphin encounter and book everything now because the excrusions get booked really quickly. I'd also get the little passport book that they sell with all the awesome freebies and coupons. I think it was like 20 dollars.
HTH Fm me with any other questions..

Some similar islands and we did Princess but it was great. Souther Carribean is one of the best cruises you can do.. We started in San Jaun also which is a great city and we stayed there an extra couple of days

What ship was it?? I wasn't on that cruise but I've been on two others and maybe I can tell you a little about the ship.

Re: NWR: Cruise

I think the ship is the Adventure of the Seas, we haven't gotten all of the details, but I'm thinking that's the one it is. I wish I could stay in San Juan longer, but my boss is already killing me for taking a week off!

I did that itinerary on Adventure of the Seas in November of '04. We stayed at the Caribe Hilton both before and after our cruise. You should have a great time! Any questions, just FM me. Congrats!

Re: NWR: Cruise

Im going on that one in April!!!!

Ive been on ones similar (never to Aruba or Curacao tho) and you will love it.

Dont book excursions through the cruiseline. When you get to the ports you can do all the same stuff on your own and not wait for a cattle drive of cruisers.

St Martin is my fav island. We go alot.

Royal Caribbean is the best cruiseline IMO!!
