So My Questions are (a lot, please bear with me):p

For 1st choice

1. Is Princess Cays worth a visit?

2. How about Grand Turk Island?

3. For princess, is it too formal for young couples?

 

For 2nd option

1. we want to visit bio-bay at night. Is the time enough for us? We will stop at San Juan for 7 hours until midnight, and I google the map, it take us 1 hour 17 mins driving from san juan to bio-bay.

 

2. Is Road town worth visiting? Is Road town more attracting than Grand Turk Island or Princess cays?

 

3. How is carnival freedom? I heard it is not as decent and clean as Princess, is that true? Because of more drunk young couples?

 

4. For this sail, we are thinking about 4 people live together in one cabin. Will that be too crowded for us? jam-packed time for changing clothes, dress up and get ready for dinner? Do you guys think choose a later dinner is better than early dinner?:confused:

 

 

Anyway, we are first time cruisers. we have nothing to compare. So we are not picky at any decorations or food. A cruise itself is a wonderful experience to us.

 

Hope someone could answer any of these questions. Thanks a million!:)
