Southern Caribbean Cruise 7 Notti • San Juan, Portorico • Rhapsody of the Seas

Cruises from San Juan are always special because they begin in a city that doubles as a top vacation destination. The vibrant capital of Puerto Rico, San Juan offers something for every traveler — world-famous beaches with crystal clear waters, incredible cuisine, rugged natural beauty and a rich history that goes back 500 years. With its ancient fortresses and colorful colonial-era buildings, San Juan makes it easy to feel as though you’ve slipped into the past. Life moves at a slower pace along the sunny cobblestone streets of Old San Juan, and salsa beats seem to waft perpetually from open windows. If you’re craving a hike, head to El Yunque National Forest. And if you’re more in the mood to unwind, set your sights on the beautiful shores of Isla Verde or El Condado. Mealtime is also an adventure, with so many delicious options to try — from mofongo and pastelon to chillo frito and alcapurrias. Pair every bite with a piña colada — Puerto Rico’s national drink.

La partenza della nave è prevista alle 8:00 pm, quindi è necessario arrivare con almeno 2-3 ore di anticipo per poter effettuare il check-in e i protocolli di imbarco. Durante questo tempo, molti servizi della nave sono aperti e funzionanti, quindi sentiti libero di iniziare la tua vacanza in anticipo.

St. Thomas offers all the action of a lively city and the allure of a secluded island getaway. Stroll through the colorful markets of Charlotte Amalie, or unwind on the sugary sand beach at Magen’s Bay. Whether you’re looking to turn up or tune out, you’ll feel a world away in this unique slice of paradise.

The largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Croix has it all— gorgeous natural scenery and colonial towns perfect for wandering. Walk the cobbled streets of Frederiksted and Christiansted for a taste of Dutch Victorian architecture. Or roam sprawling plantations and crumbling sugar mills dotting the countryside. And don’t miss the island’s white powder beaches, like Cane Bay and Rainbow Beach.

St. Maarten sits at the crossroads of the Caribbean and the Atlantic. It’s also a place where over 120 cultures meet. You can taste it in the island’s cuisine, which is rated among the best in the Caribbean. And you can feel it whether you stay in the upbeat, party-centric Dutch side where the port is located, or cross into the laid-back, local-driven French side of the island.

Get to know St. Lucia— an eco-tourist’s utopia. You can trek the enormous rainforest to visit the towering, green-mantled twin peaks known as the Pitons. And be sure to soak in the natural wonders at the hot mineral pools.

As soon as you get into “Town”, make a stop at one of the island’s 1,500 rum shops. Then spend your day on the seemingly endless pink-and-white-sand beaches. For inland adventures, explore the rolling hills and valleys, sugarcane fields and historic plantations. Or take a dive into the crystal clear turquoise waters filled with captivating coral reefs.

La cinquecentenaria capitale di Porto Rico è un sogno per gli amanti della storia. Gli spagnoli si sono insediati in questo porto come base per l'espansione nel Nuovo Mondo e la loro influenza è ancora evidente, dalle mura della fortezza che seguono la costa all'arcobaleno di edifici coloniali lungo le viuzze. Se ti allontani dalla città, la natura prende il sopravvento. Puoi salire sulle montagne lussureggianti della foresta El Yunque o fare un'escursione a cavallo lungo il fiume. Se preferisci il relax, scegli una spiaggia immacolata e stenditi gustando una frittella di merluzzo e un cocktail al rum. Le crociere a o da San Juan ti offrono l'avamposto perfetto per iniziare o concludere la vacanza.

La crociera è finita, ma ci sono ancora alcune fantastiche attività da praticare nella zona. Se sei arrivato in aereo, tieni presente l'orario del tuo volo di partenza e pianifica di conseguenza.
