Our recent cruise aboard the Norwegian Getaway can be summed up in one word: disappointing.

We have been on more than a dozen cruises with Royal Caribbean, Celebrity and Carnival Cruise Lines. This was our third cruise this year and our second overall with NCL. It bears the unfortunate distinction of being our least enjoyable.

Last January we sailed on the Norwegian Jewel and were treated to a very enjoyable cruise experience - so much so that we came back to NCL this year, anxious to experience the latest that NCL had to offer. Unfortunately, this may be our last NCL cruise.

Ocho Rios

Dunns River Falls on steroids! Loved it! Book with Courtney Taylor tours direct and you'll save a bundle.

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

Locals were were not especially friendly. Taxis were way overpriced.

Cozumel

Very busy but our kids loved it. Again, book direct. You pay when you get there.
