Caribbean Island Hop – Tortola & St. Kitts

About this cruise

You board in San Juan on October 10, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Tortola, Philipsburg, St. John's, Basseterre and St. Croix, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 5 borders through the Caribbean: British Virgin Islands, Sint Maarten, Antigua & Barbuda, St. Kitts & Nevis and U.S. Virgin Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Basseterre, Volcanic peaks over a Caribbean harbour. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Rhapsody Of The Seas takes the food seriously, with 8 restaurants to choose from. 3 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
