Good Points
food was exellent! all the staff were helpful and friendly. The cabins are good, the steward comes in twice (daily)

Bad Points
The only let down with the holiday was the entertainment because this was our 9th cruise and the name that tune questions were all the same as last year and the mr& mrs show aswell. The cruise directors jokes were all the same!

General Comments
The Itinerary on Airtours Cruises was st lucia : very pleasant island but steep roads! barbados:great island the beaches was great if you went there I would recommed to go on the local buses as they play out regge music on the bus and the fares are very cheap! Dominica:the island is dogey I advise you to stick to near the ship if you go ashore independant. We went whale and dolphin watching we saw about 3 or 4 whales! and loads of dolphins. If your an animal lover i recommend this tour!

St maartin:the island is split into 2 halves the french side and the dutch side. The ship docks in the dutch side and the best thing to do is go independant and go to the local town (Phillpsburg) and go shopping! it is not expensive either. I bought some channel sunglasses for $20 (and there not fake!)in England the cost £145 ! The beaches are nice but if you have long hair try to hide it as people will want to braid it and do check if they have a license because the tourist police will come after them! Leaving you with half braided hair!. Tortola: if you get a taxi I advise you to go to cane garden bay beach! It is excellent! with toilet facillities , and if you go in the sea don't stand where the waves breaking point is because there are extremely big waves which will sweep you under and it is very hard to get air! so just go abit further out. The roads in tortola are very steep steeper than you could imagine. So fasten your seat belt because you will be in for a steep and bumpy ride!
