Review summary

We had an absolute ball aboard the Escape, wasn't too impressed with our Port of calls. Maybe it was the weather or there just wasn't much to offer unless you booked excursions. Would love to sail on the Escape again just a different route next time.

Go to Megan's Bay. The ride over there is breathtaking, and the bay itself is gorgeous.

lots of people did excursions, I just went a different route this time around. we did western Caribbean in 08 and booked excursions at all four ports and felt we would have had a lot more fun just winging it which we would have on that cruise. if you are doing Eastern Caribbean I would probably do excursions. I will if I go back.

We're doing that one in November This year the only thing bothering me is we're only in 2 of the ports for half a day, so wasn't worth booking any trips, what did other people do?? Thanks
