Tiki Torch Trek – Barbados & Guadeloupe

About this cruise

7 nights, 5 ports, all from La Romana on November 30, 2026. The route visits Catalina Island, Bridgetown, Fort-de-France, Pointe-à-Pitre and Tortola and the whole thing just flows. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Crossing 5 borders through the Caribbean: Dominican Republic, Barbados, Martinique, Guadeloupe and British Virgin Islands. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. You get around 10 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, MSC Opera takes the food seriously, with 4 restaurants to choose from. 4 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. Couples, small groups, or anyone who wants proper time away will find this hits the spot. Pro tip: fly in the day before. La Romana has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. A November sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 7-night sailing is a strong place to start.
