[CrazyZombie1140]

So...

I am going on the Carnival Freedom (6-day) cruise on February 16th.

am stopping at:

Key West

Grand Cayman

And want to know if anyone has experience with this cruise. I already booked excursions, and am traveling with little brothers and parents and grandparents.

So... uh... yeah.

I hope you decide to take the Sting Ray excursion in Grand Cayman, it is amazing! There are lots of companies that offer it, They are usually cheaper (and less crowded) than those offered by the cruise line. We used Moby Dick Tours, very informative and fun. Plus we had more stingrays around us then any other group.

 

The beauty of arranging with Moby Dick is that they don't ask for payment until you arrive in GC. If for any reason, the ship doesn't make it to that port (weather, etc) you aren't out any cash. On the other hand, if you change your mind, as a courtesy, they request that you advise them so they don't hold up the tour waiting for a no-show.

Key West and Grand Cayman are great ports. In Ocho Rios don't get too far off the main path, street or you will wind up in a 4th world country. The main drag is fine but most everywhere else you will not likely have a good time.
