Did a ship bought shore excursion. Not impressed at all. Seems as if some excursions were thrown together last minute. City was extremely dirty and rundown. Getting off and back on to the ship was a dreadful experience. So much of getting on and off shuttles just to get off the and on the ship. Let alone going on a shore excursion....more shuttles. Not sure why this port had such a strict protocol for letting passengers on and off. I understand security but this Port of call is over the top.

First time in this port of call. Have to say not overly impressed. Typical market shopping. City had quite a bit of garbage just about everywhere. Did a shore excursion and forgot how long a day ends up being when doing a tour...lol! Tour guide was okay but his English was very bad so hard to understand most of what he was saying. Docking in an industrial port is not ideal. Wouldn't bother getting off of the ship again if this was another port of call for us in the future.

We took a ship tour bus of the city, not worth the price. Then we walked in town by ourselves. They told us it was dangerous but people were very nice.
