Going on a cruise… I just have a few simple questions, I hope!?

So im going on a cruise in april for our family vacation. Ive never been on a cruise, and im so excited! We’re going in the Caribbean, and stopping in Jamaica and Mexico. But I have a few questions? First of all, I want to know if im going to have to be under adult supervision the whole time? im 17, twin sisters are 15. Are we going to have to follow my parents around all day? or can we just go do our own thing? Like can my parents go swimming while I go and get a massage or something? And that leads to my second question: to get massages and stuff, will it cost extra? (besides tipping). Or can I just like walk in and say I want a massage? because if so… i’d be in there all day. haha

Also, are we going to need passports if we’re docking and getting off in mexico, and jamaica and the cayman islands? (btw… what territory are the cayman islands in? just wondering.)

and, will I need to get shots and vaccines since we’ll be doing things off the ship in mexico in rainforests and stuff.

Carnival Cruise lines, specially the ship "Dream"…help please!?!?

My sister in law and I have been looking for cruises during July. It’s just going to be four of us (my bf, me, her and her husband) and since it’s the first time my bf and I will cruise and we REALLY need a vacation, we thought it would be fun to go on the Dream cruise. My sis in law thinks it’s too expensive for her and her husband since they have other vacation plans with their kids as well. Also, they feel it’s too long and they’ve cruise a few times before and they told us that by the 5th day you really just want to get out of the ship. The Dream Cruise goes for a whole week and the itinerary I was looking at was for the Bahamas, St.Thomas, and St. Marteen. Now we really want a ship that goes that way but that we don’t have to fly into P.R to get to it. Is there any other ships that cruise to the east part of the caribbean but leave from Miami and that are 3-5 days? Or that go to Jamaica, Cayman Islands, and Mexico? During July only!

Help please
Oh and if you’ve been on the Dream, is it fun? Is it better to go in a group or more fun if I just go with my bf?
Milkman: Thank you for telling me that it’s not boring to be on a cruise ship for more than 5 days. Like I you know, I have a boyfriend and I have NO clue why you would even bring up all the dirty stuff you can do on a cruise ship. I leave that for skanks and whores. I’m not one of those type of girls

best vacation destination?

I’m looking for a place for myself and a few of my friends to go on vacation and i’m not sure where the best place to go would be. We’d like to go somewhere warm and tropical like Hawaii, Mexico, Caribbean, Costa Rica, or some type of island. We aren’t opposed to a cruise, but we need wherever we go to be relatively affordable or have accommodations that are, because we are college students on a budget but we can splurge a bit. Any recommendations for somewhere that would be fun, have beautiful beaches, and not be too pricey??

Vacation Location Ideas?

I’m supposed to be finding a place to go for vacation next winter break for my family of 5 + 1(oldest brother’s girlfriend). We have some places, but for example our spot in Mexico is being run over by the cartels and we’ve already been to Hawaii, so naturally we thought of the Caribbean. My family is 2 teenagers (18 + 14 both male), 1 young adult (20, male) and then our dad and mom. They hate being tourists and don’t like to stay at hotels. Everyone in our family surfs (very well i might add) and we don’t want it to be too expensive. What would be the best island in the Carribean for our family to visit?

vacation destinations?

Hey. I want to go somewhere next summer. Maybe a cruise but im not sure where to go. I’ve been on 3 cruises which went to Bahamas, St. Maarten, St Thomas, Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico, Haiti, Cayman Island, Jamaica, and Mexico. What other destinations do you recommend. I really want to go on another cruise with none of the same islands. It has to be in July or August 09 only. Any places you recommend? I really wanted to go on a cruise to Tahiti or to Aruba and Trinidad but they don’t have any ships that go there in the summer. If you can’t find a cruise, are there any nice places you recommend? And if you do find a cruise,I like Royal Caribbean and Princess Cruise line. I don’t want any Carnival cruises.

Thanks=]

New to cruising, want a relaxing vacation.?

While spending as little as we can, we have around 00 but are saving more. Me and my mother(ages 28 and 58) are looking to go on a nice relaxing cruise. I don’t want the party ships our main interests are the swimming pools and good spas, good food, and the best beaches and snorkeling at the best islands in the Caribbean. This will probably be in the fall Sept-Oct. We do want at least a week if not a few days more. I do not want to go to Mexico, Jamaica, or the Cayman Islands. We are mostly interested in the Easter or Southern Caribbean. Also we are looking into either Royal Caribbean, Princess, Celebrity, Holland America, or Norwegian Cruise Line. What cruise line would be better and if you know of a good cruise that meets what we want let me know.
