Isthmus Transit – Cartagena, Puntarenas & Vallarta

About this cruise

A 16-night sailing gives you something shorter trips can't: the feeling that you're not just visiting places but actually living somewhere else for a while. This one leaves Fort Lauderdale on March 18, 2028 and visits Cartagena, Panama Canal and Panama City, with additional stops along the Caribbean. The sailing ends in Los Angeles. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 8 port calls start. It's a proper Caribbean tour: 5 countries, from Colombia to United States. People come back from this cruise talking about Panama Canal: The shortcut that changed the world. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Island Princess has 6 dining spots on board, most of them included. The longer time on board means you'll catch several shows, themed nights, and start feeling like a regular at your favourite bar. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. 8 ports, 5 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
