Deep Indigo – Colon & Willemstad

About this cruise

If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Cartagena on October 25, 2026, visiting Oranjestad, Willemstad and Colon. That gives you 3 days in port and 3 at sea, enough of each to find a rhythm. Port to port, the water changes colour and the music changes too. That's the fun of it. Most ports give you about 11 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, There are 8 restaurants on Grandeur Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Hard to ask for much more than that, honestly.
