Review summary

This was a great cruise but will probably never do this again. First of all Bermuda is 2 hours by air from our local airports and in the future we would go back but we would fly and stay for a week. Bermuda is an amazing place to visit and we needed more time on the island. We only had two days there. The unusual thing about this trip is we were informed by the crew that the night we were originally going to stay in port we had to leave and return the next morning. They never said why. So we sailed out of port, sailed around the ocean overnight then back to the port the next day. Screwed up our evening plans on Bermuda. Still had a great time.

Live in NJ visit NY all the time

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Bermuda was beautiful. Take in as much of the island as possible. Don't bother visiting Hamilton, not really much to do or see.
