Don't overly pack. Use the laundry service. That way you can save room for souvenirs or shopping.

Even with the hurricane damage, this port was lovely. We did an excursion - the eco hike tour. Our guide Tyler was awesome! She was conscientious of time and very knowledgeable and friendly. St. Thomas shopping was great.

We love Antigua. We did not book an excursion through Princess but took a taxi ride around the island and went to the beach. It was amazing. The whole island was clean and really friendly. The beaches were amazing.
