  1. This port is tendered.

     

    The cruise liner was Holland American.

     

    1. If the shuttle bus brings you to the shopping area, there are many taxis there, this is the place where we found the trishaw.

     

    2. If there is no shuttle bus, there are also private cars and taxis waiting at the pier side. I do not know their rates as I had the shuttle bus.

     

    I did not go to the waterfall area, just spend the time in town.

     

    Thank you for this. I too only want to see the surrounding area. The Mount B tour is unfortunately too long for me. What did you find intersting. Did you notice if there is a botanic garden or sort of.

    Thanks

  2. They do say you can go..but only on THEIR TOURS! which is a bit rich..

    So if you aren't doing their tour, don't go out and about on your own. ( or with local people ) they said

    Some went and saw 60 people living in a concrete square with no roof and shared cooking outside. They said it was sad, but saw how resilient the people were and still happy and smiling,

    The police were at the entrance to the ship, I think to keep the local taxi guys under control cos it was very calm and no clambering etc for passengers.

    We just went sharp left and jumped on a water taxi, as had read about them

    On here.

    Great way to travel.

    Going on Golden Princess in october 2015 and all this info very helpful. Thx for putting it up

  3. When do you declare the wine? Do you pay for the corkage before hand or does it get added on to the inboard account?

    I have taken a bottle of port on board in my take on luggage a few times. Security thinks it is Jack Daniels on the xray but when you go to the side table and show them that it is tawny port (Brown Bros in my case) they say is ok.
