Review summary

We booked our excursion at the same time as the ship. Mexico was awesome. Jamaica was awesone on the excursion. Our transportation was horrible. It was through the excursions group. The drive took us out of the way to go shopping g and recieved kick backs from the store owners for bringing us there. On the way he drove us through horrible parts of town that had my wife. Whom works in law enforcement a kit to nervous. But the drive getting kick back for taking us places we disnt want to go was pathetic and should not be allowed. I would nevwr book that again and not recommend it to anyone

Ship tip

I expected a lot more to do on the boat. This is an awesome cruise for someone that wants 4 days to sit by the pool. Was my first cruise and I will never take another one with as many days at sea. The 4 tiny pools were so over crowded that it was elbow room only. And the breakfest was so nasty that I skippes it 5 of the7 days.

We had that happen in Puerto Plata in DR. We told the driver we wanted to go shopping at locals mall or real street market ala Anthony Bordain. He kept driving us to these crappy tourists shops where everyone knew his name. Obviously he would get a cut. We had to finally put our foot down and tell him to take us to real street markets and malls or don't expect a tip. Off to the non tourist places we quickly went. We kinda like the foreignness of foreign countries. But most drivers think Americans only want to see the Disneyfied sanitized spots.
