On this episode of GREAT CRUISES we board the world’s first non-smoking cruise ship, one of the “Fun Ships” of Carnival Cruise Lines, the PARADISE, as she sets sail from Miami to the ports of Playa Del Carmen, Cozumel, Grand Cayman and Ocho Rios, in the Western Caribbean. We’ll enjoy many of the side trips, including a visit to the ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum on the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Later, we’ll visit a turtle farm, snorkel with giant stingrays and dive a hundred feet below the sea on a submarine in the Cayman Islands. And finally, we’ll visit Ocho Rios, Jamaica where we’ll tour lush botanical gardens and climb six hundred feet up spectacular Dunn’s River Falls. Our first port of call is Cozumel, an island off the eastern shores of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Here we board a high-speed catamaran to take us to the port of Playa Del Carmen back on the mainland. After a short bus ride we reach the ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum. Our second port-of-call is Grand Cayman, a relatively small island renowned as one of the world’s largest financial centers, being home to over 580 banks and trust companies holding almost a trillion dollars in assets! A favorite tourist haunt is Hell’s Post Office, so named after the amazing limestone rock formations. You can pick up a tee shirt that, well, says it all!

There are 4 of us in our group and so transfers from Carnival would be $128! Looking on a map it doesn’t look like the airport is too far from the cruise ship terminal. I am thinking that a cab would be much more economical. Any advise would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
OK, thanks to all for your time to respond! Yahoo Answers is indeed a great thing to get information that you can count on as being honest, unbiased and accurate. Again, thanks to all!

It begins & ends in Jacksonville, FL and the ports of call are Freeport & Nassau Bahamas.

I’ve tried to look up attractions and places there, but all I find are the expensive activities and I don’t really have the budget for that. Any ideas or shops, cheap attractions, cool areas to go to etc etc?

People who’ve been there before have some recommendations or if you just know the area??

Ideas will be helpful & gratefully accepted.

I am trying to book the cruise, but I know it is kind of late doing so, and the balcony rooms are all taken. I know that travel agents or discount cruise companies purchase rooms in bulk, right? How can I find a company or someone that has a balcony view I can purchase for this 5 day cruise?
