Review summary

My family and i came back from a western caribbean cruise 10 days. On this cruise we took our niece who was celebrating her 20th birthday and she had a blast as her first time cruising, I feel that because My husband and I had cruise more than 9 times we are now comparing every cruise and been very particular about certain things. This cruise was catered most to senior citizens since the majority were seniors, therefore I recomment this type of cruise to any family who is interested in being part of a group of the kind.

You can walk to the closest city, and take a taxi on the way back. It is a bit far from the cruise ship, but you can do it.

Puerto Limon, Costa Rica

3 out of 5
if you like to shop and save money as soon as you get out of the ship they have the best shopping area ever. they also have a spa area for your convinience to have a nice massage after your shopping as well as do you nails. The ship has this also but way more expensive

Colon, Panama

5 out of 5
Take a public yellow taxi at the port and have the driver take you to the canal and the neighborhoods
Don't Miss: shopping mall has a lot of stores and the best icecream cones from the local vendor for only $.50C

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
Not much but the island is beautiful, the shops are very inexpensive, very friendly, try to do all the activities its fun
Don't Miss: don't miss the shopping, you will get the almost the same items on another port, but more expensive

Pros: The port of Calls

Cons: The population
