Hey Guys, How did it go??

Is there a place near by the La Romana port where I can purchase Cigars?

NO entrance fee, when you get to the port if the ferry is not there you can call it over by using the phone on the side of the building, the ferry is free.. I believe once you support the bar and have something to eat there would be no issues in regards to day visitors you can use the bathroom facilities as well... you may have to pay something extra if you want a room for the day... they do have the best drinks and their burgers are GREAT! you can give them a call and see what they say because I am a local so I just show up and buy drinks and order lunch and has never had any issues.

No, It would be too long walking and extremely Hot..so I would suggest the taxi.

From the port, its a 10 minute drive to the dock then a 2 minute ride over to the small island, no you would be bothered by any vendors, it is a private island so no vendors there at all

I will be cruising the Greater Antilles as I would call them, Martinique, Guadeloupe, BVI, St. Maarten, Dominican Republic, Antigua, St.Kitts

I would suggest Young Island, you can get a taxi at the port and ask them to take you to there, it has a nice beach and a swim up bar as well as another bar where you can get drinks, It is very quiet as well, you can also liaise with the taxi driver to come back for you at an appropriate time to check out another spot, I will be coming back from my cruise on that day, ask him for suggestions as well

It will be pretty dead in town on Sunday, you can walk about but public buses would not be available as often as it would be during the week, I would suggest getting a taxi at the port or a bit lower down on your walk and telling them what it is you want to do, beach and then a bar and see some nice spots, talk to them and come up with an agreeable and affordable price, which Sunday would that be? I live in St. Vincent btw but I am going on a cruise end of March

On a Sunday Kingstown will be somewhat dead, taxis will be available on the port for beach tours etc, just tell them what you are interested in doing and make sure get a good price

thanks for the help guys...seems as if it is if they remember, I saw the cakes online but I wont eat a whole cake so doesnt make sense to buy it

This is not just my first time cruising on MSC but also my first time cruising ever! I have been researching for months since I booked and now I am 21 days away from my first cruise! I saw little to no information on what or if MSC normally do anything for persons who celebrate their birthdays on board. Can anyone let me know if they have any experience with this or just any info. Thanks!

can on board credit be used to purchase drinks packages?

Ok, same route..Guadeloupe doesn't seem to have much info on here...I've been looking for a while

Thanks

can you let me know where is Cabin 8013 on MSC Orchestra?

Hey, what time does your ship dock and what time does it leave? Ferrys Dont run as often on Sundays as it does during the week, I believe the earliest Ferry to leave Bequia on a sunday is 4:30pm.. takes one hour so you get up at 5:30pm.. the schedule may be different during Easter

Hey, which cruise is that you are joining? MSC Orchestra? If so I am joining before from Martinique....We were loking for something to do on that day but Guadeloupe seems pretty dead on a SUNday
