We thoroughly enjoyed Nassau (again) wondering around on our own. The Queen's Staircase is a must visit and is an easy walk from the dock area. The Straw Market is also a must visit. Overall the economy is this region of the world centers on tourism. They take this very seriously and you should feel completely safe wondering around the area. We also did the horse drawn carriage and this was also a nice change of pace for us.

Nassau

The only complaint we have is the fact that we were in port for such a short amount of time. The drive up to the rain forest was scenic and the guide was knowledgeable. The rain forest was amazing; beautiful and scenic. It was a nice getaway from the crowds.

St John was incredible. The water was warm and clear. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. This was a trip highlight. Was ironically one of the least expensive excursions available too!

The so-called "Dune Buggies" were not. They were Gator off road vehicles. MUCH more bumpy and less responsive than a true dune buggy. They had real dune buggies available; we saw another tour group riding around in them. But our group ended up with tall off road work vehicles. We still got to see a good deal of the island but it was false advertising. We paid for and expected dune buggies. We got something far different.

Great balcony and great location. But no A/C and smoke from others drifting into balcony area sort of ruined the experience.

Between the confusion of embarkation in the parking lot, the lack of A/C in our cabin, and the enormous crowds I believe this will be our last time on this mega cruiser.Other guest we asked said "our room is freezing" and one cabin I visited was indeed nice and cool.
