Ahoy Mates!

Sailing on the Emerald with DH and another couple. We've got tours planned on Grenada with Mandoo, on Dominica with Reynold and on St. Thomas with Sunny Liston. We've toured with Sunny on a prior trip to St. Thomas, but it will be our first tours with Mandoo and Reynold.

Is anyone else that is sailing on this cruise booked with these folks?

It would be nice to tour together...:wave

We're on that cruise, but not sure what we're doing yet. We're still deciding. Any suggestions? We've never been to Bonaire, Grenada or Domenica, so we're looking forward to all three. I've selected some local restaurants to sample local cuisine, but that is about it.

I would recommend Mandoo Tours on Grenada as Mandoo does a Gr8 job. On Bonaire U can let us know for Our Feb. Gr8 Escape Group cruise. :) Dominica is a lovely island and I would recommend grabbing a local taxi and having him take U around the island for a few stops. The shopping in town is decent and make sure U pick up some of their GREEN Aloe soap. :thumb

Einstein, thanks for the tips, but I'm not sure what you mean by Mandoo Tours. Is that the name of the company of a specific tour? What specifically would you recommend? We're not into beach trips, sailing or snorkling. Any additional ideas? As for Domenica, I love the taxi idea. Where should we want to go? I know nothing about either place.

Don't miss the theatre productions, they're excellent quality especially the Motown night. Get aft as well, through the Adagio bar and there's a pool and a bar with fountains, nobody discovers it till the last day!!!

Hi Miki!

We're sailing the Emerald tomorrow. Leave her nice n' clean for us okay? :)

Hope you are enjoying your cruise. Let us know how you liked it.
I'll definitely be back with my review after the cruise.

Best,
Mike

WARNING: what ever you do, do NOT do the "Dutch Fishing Vessel" excursion in Bonaire. We were so totally disappointed, as it was not worth the $$. Plus, the people of Bonaire didn't seem very friendly.

I have to disagree with juggles on the Motown night thing. We just got back yesterday, and to me, there was no feeling in the singing. It was all kind of like elevator music, very watered down. My problem is, I love Motown music and was looking forward to the show, yet left disappointed. Plus, three of the songs in the show were not Motown songs, but that is immaterial. I will say that the dancing and costumes, though, were first rate.

Look for my review. and if you disagree, that's fine, I respect that.
