Cruising the Caribbean: A Gude to the Ports of Call Book

Cruise passengers in the Caribbean usually have 8-10 hours to explore each port of call before jumping aboard again and setting off for another sunny isle. This guide, written by the purser for a major cruise line, has all the information you need to make the most of that time ashore... and still make it back before the ship leaves. Specifically tailored to the cruise passenger, it offers a wealth of practical information on each island – mail service, taxi rates, car hire, phone service, currency, the local bus system. A special section tells what you will find on the pier itself. Detailed itineraries then cover a wide range of individual interests, from golf and tennis to hiking through the rainforest and sightseeing. Contact names and numbers are given so you can book ahead. Historical walking tours, pony treks, shopping, group excursions, the best beaches, self-guided tours, dive expeditions, quaint places to eat – it's all here.
