PORTS OF CALL

Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

As your travel advocates, we view the start of your vacation not as a logistical hurdle, but as the first chapter of your experience. For cruises departing from Fort Lauderdale, we strongly encourage you to treat the city as more than just a transit point. Arriving a day or two early transforms a potentially stressful travel day into a seamless, relaxing prelude to your voyage, and Fort Lauderdale is perfectly suited for this purpose.

Think of it as easing into vacation mode. Flying in the day of your cruise introduces unnecessary risk—a single flight delay or misplaced bag can jeopardize your entire trip. By arriving early, you trade that anxiety for the sophisticated, laid-back ambiance of the “Venice of America.” The city’s primary airport, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International (FLL), is exceptionally convenient, located just a few miles from both the cruise terminals at Port Everglades and the city's best hotels. A short taxi or rideshare trip will have you checked in and ready to explore in no time.

**Your Pre-Cruise Itinerary Suggestion:**

**Day 1: Canals, Culture, and Cuisine**

After settling into your hotel, your first experience should be the one that defines the city: its waterways. Forget the rental car and embrace the Water Taxi. It’s not just transportation; it’s a brilliant sightseeing tour. As you cruise the 165 miles of inland canals, you’ll glide past stunning waterfront mansions, mega-yachts, and lush tropical gardens. It’s a relaxing and genuinely unique way to get your bearings and appreciate the city’s distinctive character.

Disembark at the stop for Las Olas Boulevard. This is the city’s heart—a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly thoroughfare lined with independent boutiques, captivating art galleries, and a superb collection of restaurants. It’s the perfect place for a leisurely afternoon stroll, perhaps stopping for a coffee or a cocktail at a sidewalk cafe. For dinner, Las Olas offers a range of options to suit any palate, from the classic Italian fare at Louie Bossi's Ristorante Bar Pizzeria to the upscale American cuisine at Lobster Bar Sea Grille. A celebratory pre-cruise dinner here sets a wonderful tone for the week ahead.

**Day 2: Beachfront Bliss and Natural Wonders**

Dedicate your morning to the iconic Fort Lauderdale Beach. This isn’t a rustic, deserted island; it’s a world-class urban beach, known for its wide, clean stretch of sand and the beautifully designed beachfront promenade. Rent a lounge chair and simply relax, or take a long walk along the signature “wave wall.” The atmosphere is vibrant yet far more relaxed than its southern neighbor, Miami Beach.

For the afternoon, you have two excellent, contrasting options:

1. **Cultural Immersion:** Visit the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens. This historic 1920s estate is a true gem, offering a glimpse into Old Florida’s artistic and whimsical past. The house itself is filled with original art and furnishings, but the real star is the surrounding 35 acres of pristine barrier island habitat, complete with tropical gardens, a hibiscus garden, and even a resident population of monkeys. It’s an accessible, enriching cultural experience that feels a world away from the city bustle.

2. **Wilderness Adventure:** Experience the Florida Everglades. Several reputable operators offer half-day tours that include transportation and an unforgettable airboat ride. Skimming across the “River of Grass” is a thrilling experience, providing a profound sense of this unique ecosystem’s vastness. You’re almost guaranteed to see alligators in their natural habitat, along with a variety of wading birds. It’s a fantastic adventure that provides a dramatic counterpoint to the coastal elegance of the city.

By the time you wake up on embarkation day, you’ll be refreshed, acclimated, and already in a vacation mindset. The short, stress-free transfer to Port Everglades will feel like a simple next step, not a frantic race. Starting your journey this way ensures you board your ship ready to enjoy every moment, and that, in our view, is the foundation of a truly great vacation.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas

At Sea - Cruising

Oranjestad, Aruba

Aruba presents a unique Caribbean landscape, trading lush jungle for an arid, desert-like beauty of cacti, rock formations, and its iconic, wind-swept divi-divi trees. The cruise port docks directly in the capital, Oranjestad, a clean and walkable city defined by its brightly colored Dutch colonial architecture. A complimentary open-air trolley makes a convenient loop through the main downtown area, which is filled with high-end retailers and local boutiques.

While the city is charming, Aruba’s primary draw is its magnificent coastline. A short taxi or bus ride north of the port reveals two of the Caribbean’s most celebrated beaches. Eagle Beach is a vast expanse of pristine white sand, consistently ranked among the world's best, offering a more tranquil atmosphere. Adjacent Palm Beach is livelier, lined with resorts, beach bars, and a full spectrum of water sports.

For those seeking an alternative to the beach, the island’s interior offers a compelling look at its rugged terrain. A visit to Arikok National Park showcases a dramatic coastline and caves with ancient Arawak petroglyphs. Closer to the port, the Casibari Rock Formations provide an easily accessible opportunity to climb among massive tonalite boulders for panoramic island views. Aruba offers a polished and safe environment, balancing world-class beach relaxation with accessible and distinctive natural scenery.

Willemstad, Curacao

Willemstad is not just another Caribbean port; its historic core is a designated UNESCO World Heritage site, offering a cultural depth that rewards exploration. The city is bisected by St. Anna Bay, and the two sides, Punda and Otrobanda, are connected by the iconic Queen Emma Pontoon Bridge. Walking across this floating bridge as it swings open for passing ships is a quintessential Willemstad experience.

Punda is home to the famous Handelskade, the waterfront row of brightly colored, 18th-century Dutch colonial buildings that form the island's signature image. Its gridded streets are filled with shops, galleries, and cafes, along with the Mikvé Israel-Emanuel Synagogue, the oldest continuously operating synagogue in the Americas. Across the bay, Otrobanda (“the other side”) offers a more residential feel with a maze of winding alleys. It is also the location of the Kura Hulanda Museum, a powerful and essential institution that chronicles the transatlantic slave trade and its profound impact on the region.

While the city itself is the main attraction, Curacao’s renowned beaches require transportation. A taxi or pre-arranged tour is necessary to reach them. For a full-service beach club atmosphere, Mambo Beach is a popular choice. For more natural beauty, the island's west coast (Westpunt) features stunning coves like Kenepa Grandi and Cas Abao, known for their turquoise water and dramatic cliffs. A visit to the Curacao Liqueur Distillery offers a brief, flavorful diversion for a taste of the island's famous spirit.

Panama Canal

A transit of the Panama Canal is not a port of call; it is the destination itself. This is a day dedicated to witnessing one of the greatest engineering achievements in human history, a slow and deliberate passage between two oceans. The experience is a fascinating blend of immense industrial power and serene natural beauty, best viewed from an open deck with a good pair of binoculars.

The journey is a masterclass in logistics and scale. Your vessel will be guided into a series of massive locks—like the historic Gatun Locks on the Atlantic side or the Miraflores Locks near the Pacific—by powerful locomotives known as 'mules.' You'll feel the ship rise and fall dramatically as millions of gallons of water are moved by gravity, lifting you from one ocean to the level of Gatun Lake, and then lowering you back down to the other. The sheer size of the lock gates and the precision of the operation are genuinely awe-inspiring.

Between the locks, the scenery shifts entirely. You'll cross the vast, man-made Gatun Lake, a critical freshwater reservoir dotted with islands that were once mountain peaks. The surrounding rainforest is a vibrant ecosystem, and it’s not uncommon to spot monkeys or tropical birds along the banks. The most historically significant part of the journey is the Culebra Cut (formerly Gaillard Cut), a narrow, nine-mile channel carved through the solid rock of the Continental Divide. It is here that the immense human cost and ambition of the project feel most palpable.

A full transit is an all-day affair, a meditative experience that unfolds at a relaxed pace. Find a comfortable vantage point, listen to the onboard commentary that explains the history and mechanics, and appreciate the rare opportunity to sail through a living monument to human ingenuity.

Gatun Lake

Exit Panama Canal

Colon, Panama

Colon is best understood not as a destination in itself, but as a functional gateway to two of Panama's most significant experiences: the Panama Canal and the historic forts of Portobelo. The city of Colon is an industrial port, and it is strongly advised to explore the surrounding region via organized tours rather than on your own.

The primary draw is, without question, the Panama Canal. From Colon, you can visit the Agua Clara Visitor Center to witness the new, larger locks in operation. Watching massive Neo-Panamax container ships and vessels from around the globe being raised and lowered is a genuine spectacle of modern engineering. The scale of the operation is difficult to comprehend until seen firsthand.

For a journey into the past, the nearby town of Portobelo, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offers a different perspective. Here, you can explore the ruins of 17th and 18th-century Spanish colonial forts that once protected treasure fleets from pirates. The town has a quiet, rustic charm, a world away from the industrial activity of the canal. Other excursions may offer opportunities to visit indigenous Embera communities or take a boat trip on Gatun Lake, the vast artificial lake that forms a major part of the canal. A day in Colon is about the world-class attractions that lie just beyond the port's gates.

Why Protect your Trip?

Whether you’re planning your next trip or you recently booked one, travel insurance can help smooth over many unexpected travel glitches—while putting your mind at ease, knowing you’re off the hook for covered expenses that could arise from them.

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can provide you benefits and professional support when a covered situation comes up before or during your trip. The following examples may qualify for benefits:

Cancelling your trip after unexpectedly becoming too sick to travel
Taking care of a sick or injured traveling companion
Having to end your trip early due to a family emergency
Dealing with a flight delay or cancellation
Needing to buy personal items if your luggage is lost or stolen
Missing your cruise departure after a covered flight delay

To be eligible for a time-sensitive waiver of pre-existing medical condition exclusions, purchase your travel insurance plan within 14 days of initial trip deposit (other purchase requirements and conditions apply). Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

Payment guarantee
