Detailed Itinerary

Fort Lauderdale

This vast array of wonderful beaches offers you opportunities to swim with the dolphins in a tropical lagoon and come face-to-face with alligators during an Everglades airboat tour. Or stroll through a tropical rainforest while hundreds of butterflies flutter above you.

Oranjestad (Aruba)

Colonial architecture comprises much of Aruba's bright and breezy capital, which is located just south of the main resort area. Orangestad is extremely popular because of its abundance of boutiques and duty-free shops. Local bars provide great opportunities to socialize with the locals.

Cartagena Colombia

A beautiful, quaint fishing town on the Atlantic coast of Colombia, Cartagena is full of pastel-painted buildings, Spanish colonial architecture and magnificent cathedrals. Walls and fortresses, once constructed to protect the city from British soldiers and pirates, still stand.

Cruising Panama Canal

This $387 million dollar, 51-mile-long canal connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Completed by the U.S. from 1904-1914 under teddy Roosevelt, it is considered one of the greatest engineering marvels of all time.

Colon

The world's second-largest duty-free port is also the second largest city in Panama. The city was founded in 1850 by Americans working on the trans-Panama railroad and was named Aspinwall until 1890. It serves as the portal to the massive Gatun Locks.

Puerto Limon

Located on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica, Limon is noted as the landing spot for Christopher Columbus' fourth and final voyage. Serving as a gateway to the capital city of San Jose, the city is known as the "Little Switzerland of Central America" for its kaleidoscope of scenery.

Princess Cays

This private beach resort owned by Princess Cruises is located in the southern portion of the island of Eleuthera, the "birthplace of the Bahamas." Dance to goombay drums, snorkel the colourful reef and have a beachfront barbeque under the setting sun.
