Review summary

This was cruise #16 for me and ranked high as one of my favorites. All ports were great except Nasauu. I've been there before but after reading the travel alerts I decided to not risk getting off the ship. Please build the new port. I hope it's similar to Amber Cove.

We were on that cruise with you. Had a great time. We got off at Nassau and went into lots of shops and then through the straw market. Never did we feel unsafe. The downtown section is very nice. The vendors in the straw market were friendly and if we said no thank you, they would say have a nice day .

What was wrong with Nassau ? I had a business there and still go often to see friends . Since 1975 I have never seen a problem .
