What an interesting question, with lots of great answers:)

To be honest I missed nothing on our 10 night cruise. My only problem was by night 10 I could hardly eat any more:) the food was amazing....if I wanted pizza they had it, crazing potato chips....order a sandwich from room service with potato chips....was great.

I had a harder time adjusting once home with no cruise meals......hehe. No room service....no continental breakfast, or long island iced teas.....great, now I'm hungry:)

Thank you for sharing your experience with us....I am glad to hear you and your family are doing well.

By everyone who is willing to share their first hand account I think many of us are learning very valuable lessons, that will help us in the future if an event like this occurs again....

If show up on a land tour you start at the top and walk down a walkway with stairs to the bottom.....then climb back UP the falls. If your on a boat tour you arrive at the bottom of the falls and climb UP the falls, then use the walkway and stairs back down.....you don't climb DOWN the falls at all:) Now that would be dangerous;)

We did this tour last winter while in Jamaica. It was beautiful but it can for sure result in injury. We were in a big group with a guide....he was not overly attentive, but somehow we all made it to the top with no one getting hurt. All the guide did for the 50 min climb was tell us all to 'tip him well' He did not stop the whole way, and truthfully we were sick of it by the time we reached the top.

It was lovely, I'm glad I did it once in my life, but I would not do it again and these are the reasons why:

1) Hubbie and my legs were very sore the next day, and we are in our 30's and fit....it is a challenge to reach the top

2) The overly pushy guide, and rude vendors at the end.

3) It is dangerous.....areas with high steps up, and then down again. If there has been alot of rain, like there was when we were there, the current is very strong coming down the falls, and your fighting it to get up the falls.

So, that is just my opinion on Dunn's Falls:)
