Review summary

Our overall experience was ok. The Kon tiki excursion was not worth the money. In San Juan we went on our own and saw what we wanted to see. The grand Turk tour was very good and Rodney was very knowledgeable about the island.The only drawback was that I was injured on Half Moon Kay and when I was treated on the ship I was charged $ 188.00 dollars for the Treatment. I believe Carnival should be responsible because it is their leases island. I was told on the ship,because it was not an excursion they were not responsible.

We have used them numerous times. Been on 10 cruises and only had to use the ins. one time, but it was so worth it! Travel Guard paid for all of the medical expenses.

When u book yr cruise you add yr gratuity taxes port charges and insurance it's really not that expensive I recommend it especially when you have health problems and elderly or just in case
