Caribbean Grand Tour – St. Thomas & Grand Turk

About this cruise

Every port gets the time it deserves and the sea days in between are half the fun. This 12-night sailing leaves New York on November 2, 2027 and visits St. Thomas, St. Croix, Oranjestad, Willemstad, Grand Turk Island and Port Canaveral. Disembarkation is in Port Canaveral. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Crossing 4 borders through the Caribbean: U.S. Virgin Islands, Netherlands, Turks & Caicos Islands and United States. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Willemstad, UNESCO colour against Caribbean blue. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Firenze takes the food seriously, with 11 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. And November is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
