Bastion View – Cartagena & Oranjestad
About this cruise
Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 7-night round-trip sailing from Colon on March 18, 2028 visits Cartagena, Willemstad and Oranjestad. Every port day is followed by a sea day, so you get time to sleep in, use the ship, and look forward to the next stop. Crossing 3 borders through the Caribbean: Colombia, Curaçao and Aruba. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. People come back from this cruise talking about Cartagena: Colonial splendour behind fortress walls. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Grandeur Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 3 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Long enough that you stop checking your phone. Short enough that you're not bored. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. 3 ports, 3 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
