Cardex Posted June 2, 2010 Author #51 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Great review. Just wish they had St Croix instead of St Thomas. I did a live aboard dive trip there two years ago and loved St Croix. Thanks, I would love to go to St Croix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maplo Posted June 2, 2010 #52 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Do you remember which side of the ship you were on as you came into St. Lucia and saw the Pitons? I am doing a whale tour through Carnival and i think we see the Pitons on this tour but not positive. Thanks for doing this review and I love seeing your pictures. I will be on this cruise in 3 months. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MzOhioLady Posted June 2, 2010 #53 Share Posted June 2, 2010 This is a GREAT Review!! You did an excellent job. And from my work computer, you posted pictures that I can ACTUALLY See. They aren't blocked like most people's reviews. I am so looking forward to doing this exact itinerary next year in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be on this cruise in 3 months. Thanks again! I was on the starboard side. Our cabin was on the port side (which was a great side for most ports) but I went up to the lido deck to take the photos of the Pitons. Enjoy your cruise :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pokergirl34 Posted June 2, 2010 #56 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Great review! Loved the pictures. We'll be on Victory in December and I can't wait! Your review helped me with planning. I really want to go to Orient Beach and Cockleshell Beach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardex Posted June 2, 2010 Author #57 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Great review! Loved the pictures. We'll be on Victory in December and I can't wait! Your review helped me with planning. I really want to go to Orient Beach and Cockleshell Beach! Thanks, Cockleshell beach was very pretty but Orient beach was our favorite! At Orient we walked down the beach a bit to le String Bar. The sign said $8 per person but we got 2 chairs, an umbrella, 2 full size drinks (our choice - and the pina coladas are yummy) and they have their own bathroom and shower you can use for $15. We thought it was a good deal. Other places were the same price but it is a smaller drink, they didn't have a shower and you only got one bathroom pass. Here's le String - I could have spent the whole day there! Have a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCarlow Posted June 3, 2010 #58 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I would just like to say thank you for your review and pictures. I will be on the Victory in September and cannot wait. I do not mind the cruise being port intensive but do you know when the casino opens/closes?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not mind the cruise being port intensive but do you know when the casino opens/closes?? We didn't go to the casino but I know they are only open while at sea (same with the stores on the ship). Most ports did seem to have casinos (I remember in St Kitts there is one on the right as soon as your leave the main building - we had a beer at the bar above it with a great view of the Victory) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhays01 Posted July 22, 2010 #62 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Can you tell me what tour you took in St. Maarten? What tour operator you used? Also, I've been looking at Scenic Barbados Tours for our stop in Barbados...which one of the tours did you take? We're sailing the Victory Aug 8 - 15...and I can't wait! Thank you!

Controller4vvm Posted June 1, 2011 #66 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Thanks for the review. We cruise in 10 days. Thanks for all the info and pictures on San Juan. Because of our flights we won't be able to see much of San Juan. I'm disappointed, but won't let it ruin my vacation. Way too excited. Thanks again for all the info.

Because of our flights we won't be able to see much of San Juan. I'm disappointed, but won't let it ruin my vacation. Way too excited. Thanks again for all the info. We loved San Juan. You will just have to go back another time so you can see more of it :) Have fun on your cruise! Great review! Question about river tubing - how intense was it? Thanks! I think the tubing will depend on the amount of water flowing in the river. For us it wasn't too intense. The tour company had guides on tubes to help you if you got stuck. It was lots of fun!
