Oranjestad, Aruba

4 out of 5

Aruba felt a little overrated to my family. RC excursions: snorkeling and sunset cruise. Could have been more organized at the port. Staff of Red Sail (I think that was the name) was great.

Thumbs Up 2

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

4 out of 5

Not enough time on St. Maarten. RC excursion:The Race-based on the TV show The Amazing Race. Extremely hot and humid day. Difficult to stay hydrated.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

Did an excursion that took us right to the airport. Luggage was waiting for us when we got there. A good way to utilize extra time if you have a late flight.
