Review summary

Really check out reviews for excursions as ours was the 3 hour tour of Hell. Bus not air conditioned, all businesses closed as it was a Sunday...nothing to see but closed hotels and businesses. .more activity by boat and it would have been free

Thanks for the info, after five cruises, we have never been in port on Sundays. However, we will be in port on our January cruise. Will enjoy the beach that day.
