5hrs to finally get through customs 

We were told you could only use Cuban money and to exchange Stirling but this was untrue as Dollars and Stirling were accepted

Infact all stops accepted dollars including Columbia and Panama

Cartegna port was brilliant as they have a zoo type area when you get off with parrots monkeys flamingos and other wildlife just free to move around

Some people said they saw more wildlife here than they did in the rain forest trip off the ship

Montego Bay port has a Hard Rock Cafe within walking distance from the ship which has a nice beach where sun beds are $4 each and bar and restaurant and has a free shuttle back to the ship

The HR cafe is to the right as you walk out the port and about 5-10mins walk away

The cruise itself goes to some great ports we were just disappointed with the entertainment at night which wasn’t great in any bar and he lack of good information when visiting areas off the ship as everything is geared towards you booking trips and not to do itBoarded ship effortlessly in Montego Bay certainly the quickest we have gone from airport to being onboard

Ship staff were brilliant very friendly 

Disappointed with Havana stop as we arrived around 2pm and then it was a free for all to get off
