    Recommendations needed: from Falmouth to Konoko with stops along the way (with kids)

    in Jamaica

    Posted · Edited by slipsailinaway
    more info

     

    I think that, as we are a party of 7 travelling with 5 adults (including two seniors) and a 4 year old a 6 month old baby, Konoko Park and Falls may be best suited for us. 

     

    We would like to make some stops en route to do the some (or all) of the following. Please feel free to make suggestions if this seems like a lot. 

    - visit Konoko Falls

    - perhaps visit a beach
    - try some good food along the way (cheap and cheerful, spicy is fine, authentic, seafood selection would be nice)
    - hear some live music (doesn't have to be fancy) but some roots or rocksteady would make me ever so happy
     
    How should we arrange this? A taxi? Tour operator? Any recommendations for companies that would help us realize this would be fine. Bonus points if they provide car seats. 🙂
     
    Recommendations of other places that may be or interest are much appreciated. We prefer things that are not terribly crowded, will keep a 4 year old happy and, not be to strenuous for a couple of seniors whose knees aren't so good anymore.
     

    Hiring a Minivan taxi (for 7)

    Is it difficult to find a minivan taxi to transport 7 (including two young children with car seats) at the taxi stand upon arrival? 

    Also,

    I'm coming in on Oasis (RCI). Anyone know what pier it docks at?

    When are you sailing? Sanitizers, used according to label are pretty benign, but the carpets  are not particularly clean to begin with, so I would ask for extra towels or a sheet and put it down and let an infant crawl on those. 

    As far as what they are using, I do not know, but guest services <should> have a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available for you. If they don't, I would contact customer service at their main number or email.  

    Just got off a call with RCI. They told me that I can request to have my cabin cleaned with vinegar and bleach instead.

    Cruising with children - Oasis of the Seas Show Timings

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    Excited (and nervous about norovirus, tbh) for my cruise on the 20th of January. I've just started to pre-book entertainment, but need to confirm with those who know: 

    Are shows such as "Cats" "Frozen in Time" and "Come Fly With Me" really scheduled for way past bedtime? Show times listed on the Cruise Planner are for after 9pm.  I was hoping that my 4 year old would be able to see them and that times would be earlier. 

     

    Are there entertainment options for young children (and exhausted adults) that  are earlier in the day/evening?

     

    Any other suggestions of how to keep a young child entertained?

    Any idea about what chemicals are being used to clean the ship. A spray was mentioned, but does anyone have anymore details (or know where to find out)? I'm traveling with an infant (breastfed and beginning to crawl) and young child. 

     

    Not only am I concerned with the little ones (especially the littlest one) getting sick, but by the chemicals being used to clean a

    All. The. Things.
