A Wonderful Destination Cruise

The ship is rather old and small, destined after next year for Asia as I heard. However understanding this going in, the benefit of docking right at the pier in Saint George is wonderful! You are free to leave at any time and you are in one of the most beautiful cities I've seen. I recommend the glass bottom boat tour upon arrival to see the reef and seas turtles. You'll also get a good orientation. Beyond that, book your own taxi's and make your own arrangements and save at least 30% off the ship tours. Plan ahead on what you'd like to see because the ship board staff will not be that helpful once they understand you are not using their tour service. The rooms are clean, but definitely showing wear in spots. I've never seen a more attentive staff though, and the shows on board are excellent. Overall, a great value to one of the nicer destinations. Bottle of wine in the room and champagne when you embark are nice touches. Very kid friendly environment, and love the free style approach to dining.

A cruise worth going on

Fantastic vacation. St George's is beyond beautiful! Older, worn ship, but clean, and staff very helpful. Small pools, incredibly small kid's splash pool. Excellent and varied entertainment. Buffet a necessity with small children, but very little variety from day to day (same selections showed up on several days). Extra chef desparately needed at the omlet/stir fry sation. The man there was a saint, but we routinely waited for 30-45 minutes. Have cruised on larger, newer boats, but really enjoyed the smaller size as it allowed us to dock at St George's. Didn't use the kid's care, and still my children had a ton to do when we were sailing (board games, video arcade, scavenger hunt). I was sad to come home.

Cruise tips

Skagway, Alaska

recommend the train trip, good shopping at the Coventry museum with petrified ivory carvings available and quality gauranteed

Juneau, Alaska

Mendenhal Glacier is a nice trip pales in comparison to the Sawyer glacier though. Save money and take a taxi half what you'd pay on the ship tour.

St. George's, Bermuda

Must take a carraige ride! Book it yourself and save though. The glass bottom boat tour is nice and the beaches are wonderful.
