coolio111 Posted October 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Trying to choose between SHIP Norwegian Getaway CRUISE PORTS Embark Miami (Florida); Roatan, Bay Islands (Honduras); Harvest Caye (Belize); Costa Maya (Mexico); Cozumel (Mexico); Disembark Miami (Florida) SHIP Norwegian Escape CRUISE PORTS Embark Miami (Florida); Falmouth (Jamaica); George Town (Grand Cayman); Costa Maya (Mexico); Nassau (Bahamas); Disembark Miami (Florida) We have small kids and elderly in our party. I read that Falmouth and Nassau are not that pleasant. Which would you choose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brookie848 Posted October 16, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I would do the Getaway simply because with elderly and kids, the Escape has two tender ports. Those may not be the best for those age groups (depending on their age and mobility). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebr.cruiser Posted October 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 16, 2017 We've done both of those itineraries several times; not just on NCL. I'd choose the Getaway--in fact we did that cruise last year and may be doing it again in December. I don't care as much for a Bahamas stop, we were disappointed in Harvest Caye though; would rather go to Belize City, but it was an ok beach day.

purpletequila Posted October 16, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Getaway. Falmouth is nothing to write home about, Nassau is a dump, and you need to tender in Grand Cayman. Roatan offers many cheap tours, which depending on how many people in your group, you could do private and design it yourself. Harvest Caye is simply a resort beach day. Costa Maya and Cozumel both have excellent choices for all inclusive such as Maya Chan in CM and Nochi Cocum or Mr Sanchos in Cozumel. There are lots of other things to do but those are a couple of options. The Escape has a few more food and bar options and a 3 level ropes course instead of 2 but other than that, same ship. Choose this one by port. Go with the Getaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
