Day 1 – Tifton, Georgia – Feel the anticipation build as we board our deluxe motorcoach and travel into Tifton, Georgia, for our first overnight.

Day 2 – Board Cruise Ship – After an included breakfast, we continue to Port Canaveral, Florida, where we will transfer to our Royal Caribbean Cruise Ship. We’ll have the entire evening to get acquainted with our new home away from home.

Day 3 – Leisure Day at Sea – This is a relaxing day at sea, where you can enjoy a day dedicated to exploring this majestic vessel. You may want to rise early to witness the amazing sunrise across the beautiful Caribbean waters or perhaps you’d rather sleep late before spending the day in your favorite way. Savor the excitement of the promenade decks – a playground of theaters, lounges, boutiques, and restaurants. How do you define relaxation? Begin by lounging by the pool, then take an opportunity to soak in a first-class Jacuzzi. If you prefer more activity, you won’t be disappointed. The ship is outfitted with a fully equipped gym, aerobics classes, personal trainers, court sports, and jogging tracks circling the ship. After you’ve spent all your energy, you can pamper yourself in the full-service spa. Each evening is filled with the excitement of entertaining shows and dancing to music playing in the nightclubs and lounges throughout the ships.

Day 4 – Labadee, Haiti – Labadee is a private destination just for Royal Caribbean guests on Haiti’s northern coast where beachside and mountainside converge. There’s no shortage of places to relax and recharge across five stretches of beach. Sugar-white sands, swaying palm trees, and rolling green mountains provide an idyllic backdrop to the island getaway of your daydreams — so settle in and set your sight on paradise.

Day 5 – Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic – Puerto Plata is the Dominican Republic’s oldest city in the north and a tourism pioneer. Nestled by the ocean with a mountainous backdrop, the city offers a lively pier, which is known as the Malecon, colorful shops, and opulent homes from the 1800s. The city is famous for Parque Central, a park fringed by royal palms and Victorian architecture. In Puerto Plata, you can hop on a cable car for sky-high views, take a tour of the local cacao farms, and buy some of the clearest amber stones in the world.

Day 6 – Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas – Charlotte Amalie is one of the world’s most beautiful harbors; blue waters peppered with sailboats and green hills dotted with quaint little cottages make for post-card perfect brags. Just outside the lively port town, you’ll find ribbons of powdery sand beaches dotted with hammocks. St. Thomas is a food haven with plenty of beachside eateries serving conch fritters, johnnycakes, and chocolate coconut patties. St. Thomas may technically be part of the U.S., but with its colorful markets, unspoiled beaches, and the ever-present sound of steel drums, you’ll feel a world away

Day 7 – St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands – The largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Croix has it all — gorgeous natural scenery begging to be explored, and quaint colonial towns perfect for wandering. It used to be nicknamed the ‘Garden of the Antilles’ because of its lush fields of sugarcane — and its sugar mills dating back to the 18th century are still popular spots. These days, it’s the powdery beaches like Cane Bay, and rainforests teeming with tropical wildlife that keep people coming back.

Day 8 – Leisure Day at Sea – Today is at your leisure to sleep late before spending the day in your favorite way. The possibilities are endless.

Day 9 – Leisure Day at Sea – This will be our last day at sea before saying goodbye to this magnificent ship. Take time to enjoy the serenity, as our cruise is winding down and all too soon, we’ll have to return to our busy daily lives.

Day 10 – Disembark Cruise – Marietta, Georgia – Our journey ends as we cruise into Port Canaveral and disembark the ship. We reboard our motorcoach to head toward home. Our hotel accommodations for the night will be in Marietta.

Day 11 – Home – After an included breakfast, we drive home, reminiscing about the fantastic times we’ve enjoyed together on our marvelous cruise. Meals: 2B and all meals onboard the cruise ship
