I'm filling one suitcase with 5 cases of water. I hope they don't notice.

People of all colors are allowed if that's what you're asking.

Does anyone know which ferries I can take it on? I know you can take it on the Hamilton ferry, but what about the st George ferry?

Anyone know how long it takes out of the New York port to Bermuda for them to stop charging the tax?

What floor were you on?

What does the spa pass include? What can you get with it?

Also, how would I book it? My cruise is 104 days out and I can't find the option on their site.

1. You stay at the island for 2 1/2 days (7 day cruise). The Caribbean cruises I've been only let you enjoy an island for less than 12 hours, then you have to scramble back.

2. It is mor beautiful than any Caribbean island I've seen.

I rented a scooter for 3 days last May from elbow beach cycles. I don't regret it one bit. This place made it sound worse than it is. If you are a good driver, and want complete freedom to explore the entire island, scooters are for you.

50 bucks a day for alcohol is ridiculous. You pretty much have to black out every day for it to be worth it.

The extra day in bermuda is what has the BA win for me.

There is no excuse for 1, 2, and 4. 3 is a nitpick.

Total Reward members with Platinum or higher cards can get a discount But I believe you have to book through NCL.

Ah, so it's not useful for me. The prices on ncl's site were muh higher than pricleine's.

Anyone else here have total rewards cards or credit cards? I just saw that TR users get discounts on NCL. I already put my deposit down on my June sailing, and I booked through Priceline. I'm wondering if I can get a discount at this point.

Isn't Celebrity Summit going to Bermuda more of an older crowd? My DW also feels like she won't fit in cause we're not fancy people.

Yup, it's mostly older folk. We went in May though so it might be different in the summer.

I went on the summit last May and it was great. But we are looking for more of a nightlife as we are young adults so we are taking the breakaway this June.

Would you rather have certainty or the chance to score a good deal? No one here has a crystal ball. Pick one of the two and go with it.

Well if Norwegian works a certain way then there is a degree of certainty. That's what I got from skimming through the OP anyway.

Do you guys think I should wait to book my June 14 bermuda trip on the breakaway? I was thinking about booking it now.

I went on celebrity to bermuda last May. Celebrity is very elegant and classy. It's for an older crowd and most of our cruise was up there in age. Thinking about going on RC this June.

If you're doing the caves, make sure everyone has good legs. There's a lot of steps.

The fish sandwich was absolutely amazing at swizzle inn! It was a huge portion so you might have to split it.

Cool, thanks for the info guys

This is how I would group your days:

 

• Sunday:
  
  • Horseshoe Bay
    
  • Gibbs Lighthouse
    

   

 

• Monday:
  
  • St. George & Dunking of the wench
    
  • Tobacco Bay
    
  • Swizzle Inn (original)
    

   

 

• Tuesday:
  
  • BAMZ
    
  • Hamilton shopping and sights??
    
  • Dockyard area shopping and sights
    

   

I put - Dockyard area shopping and sights – on Tuesday but since you dock there you could do it any day you have time.

The wench ducking takes place in King's Square, St George at noon.

The ferry Dockyard <> St George does not carry scooters. You have 3 choices: 1. take the ferry to St George 40 minute ferry ride, w/o the scooter and use a bus or taxi for the day; 2. ride your scooter from the Dockyard to SG, a one way distance of about 25 miles; 3. take your scooter on the ferry to Hamilton, 20 minute ride, ride your scooter from the Hamilton to SG, a one way distance of about 12 miles.

Here's a

of the ride from the Dockyard to St George ending near Fort St Catherine (I think).

I've read that the wench dunking is only on Wednesdays.

I'm going on the Summit and docking on May 7th.

My plan is day 1: Warwick to horseshoe

Day 2: St George

Day 3: western Bermuda/ dockyard

But if the wench dunking only happens on Wednesday, might go there on my first day instead.

Everything is here
