Booked this cruise in celebration of my husband's 50th birthday. We had an excellent experience throughout the whole trip. Loving the stunning meals in restaurants and daily afternoon teas and late night snacks up to 2am. Just great every moment. Loved the formal nights. Felt really special all glammed up.

Ship tip
Take little battery operated tealights for gentle night lighting. No need to take shower gel as the have The White Company fixed into shoer unit a d generous 100mls shampoo and conditioner for complimentary use. Take little laundry detergent for use in helpful launderette with net laundry bags.
Beautiful .... fab soft sand on the beach. Try visiting The Boat Yard. USD $25 You get entry to beach with security, sunbeds , unbrellas, table for drinks, 45mins snorkle experience to swim with turtles, a free drink, shower and washroom fascilities. Then you get can get a ride back to the port that leaves every 15mins up until 8pm. Just super. Very busy in Bridgetown but good stores.
I did not book an excursion but booked one with private vendor going around island. Felt very safe and visited a little factory where alcohol and body fresher made included.
My family are from this island so did not book any excursions but did relax at Sunshores Beach Hotel, used their bar and sun longer and swam in the sea.
Did not boom excurdions as I have family and friends on the island. Fely very safe catching the local bus and making my way around the island. We had a long day on the island with 9.30pm departure.
Beautiful island.
I have visited before but was not well enough on the to go further afield as mobily issue with my feet. Beautiful island very small city centre but stunning island.
I LOVED Antigua!!!! Really gorgeous Island. Great museum, interesting market. Caught local bus to Nelsons Dockyard for a few EC Dollars and paid entry to the yard. Beautifully manicured and preserved buildings with information boards. Even had a relaxing swim at Pigeon point. Taxi driver was on time for pick up back to main road for local bus back to port terminal.
Really lovely. Best place to purchase duty free if you are looking for a watch or special piece of jewellery. Did not book an excursion but mooched about and enjoyed a taxi ride over to the other side of the beach. You can walk but I have tender toe joints.
