havanadaydreaming Posted May 5, 2018 #26 Share Posted May 5, 2018 the Sky offers free drinks to all passengers and it transfers to GSC. other ships in the fleet have passengers pay for drinks at GSC unless they have UBP.

jdvmd Posted May 5, 2018 #27 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I have a question for you regarding lunch at Great Stirrup Cay. Is lunch included, or is there an extra charge? I am confused because I was looking at the pricing of the cabanas and it says that the price includes a $50 credit towards the cost of food on the island. Sent from my iPhone using Forums People use the $50 credit towards the purchase of shrimp platters etc. Things that can be ordered from room service like if you were having a party. It is just a benefit to offset the cost of the cabana. Passengers from ships other than the Sky have to pay for their drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser_1977 Posted May 21, 2018 #28 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Thank you Thank you! I'm booked on the Sky June 4-8, same itinerary. What a great review and I am terribly sorry for your Havana/Cuba experience. I am glad to know there is Trivia. Also, that there is a white party. My S/O was asking and we couldn't find anything on either one of those. I'm glad we didn't book Le Bistro, but we have booked Cagney's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcdancerkc Posted May 22, 2018 #29 Share Posted May 22, 2018 From one KC to another. Lol We were off to Bermuda on NCL Escape while you were doing Cuba . I wouldn’t like to do Sky again, but hubby is looking at Carnival to get to Cuba. Did you feel safe, welcome? Besides your trip into the countryside with gangstas....lol.... I haven’t started researching, but we love beaches and dancing, and I would own a classic car if I could.....With AC :cool: Are there people pushing thier wares on you like Jamaica? Love staying in Negril but would never go there on a ship. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyA'sMom Posted May 23, 2018 #30 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Thank you for the review. Helping my get excited. We will be on the Sky to Cuba July 23. We booked the walking tour of Old Colonial Havana through NCL. I'm thinking of canceling and exploring on our own. Normally don't do cruise line shore excursions. Too expensive. enjoy exploring on our own better. Hope we make it to GSC, if not we will enjoy another day on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total was 100 CUCs for 2 or 3 people. They tailor the tour to what you want to see. Thought it was a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mediator Posted September 15, 2018 #39 Share Posted September 15, 2018 We are going on the 9 day trip on the Sun with stop in Havana next month . We booked the sail away outside guarantee for $409. Wow. We were assigned immediately a cabin (unlike Princess) to the bowels of the ship as well. Thanks for advice 46 yrs, we will separate the beds, Does the hop on hop off bus take u.s. dollars? We are trying to avoid converting CUCS. We do have some left over euros whicj I understand has a better exchange rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love staying in Negril but would never go there on a ship. Thanks! I am on this page because we just booked our first NCL Cruise on Joy next October because it ports in LA the day before Carnival Legend leaves LA for our Panama Canal cruise. We just cruised Carnival to Cuba from Tampa August 18. We loved it so much I wrote my first review. We had wonderful private tours! Check it out if you wish—Paradise Havana-Style. I need to do lots of reading to be ready for all the differences between cruise lines but am excited to try something new!

MyBad Posted September 16, 2018 #42 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Thank you for the review. I will be going to Cuba in January on Viking and I am wondering how much cash do I need to convert. Also, what cash did you spend and on what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
