NJCruiseGal32 Posted January 15, 2010 #3 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Be sure to read up on threads of Samana before sailing. Unless one books a shore excursion, it's not recommended at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted January 22, 2010 #4 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I was on the January 4th sailing of the Noordam and was not expecting much of our port call in Samana. I booked a tour that HAL offered called Panoramic Sanama and was quite pleased with it. It allowed us to see a large amount of the peninsula and included a couple of stops in villages that gave us time to browse and people watch. The guide did a very good job in making the tour interesting. My travel companion and I were pleased with the tour. The countryside is lush and we returned to the ship with a more favorable impression of the port than we expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
