Day 4

Cartagena

Colombia

Walled-city streets, a fortress, or the port’s wildlife garden.

Cartagena is a Caribbean port in Colombia whose walled colonial old town and fortifications are UNESCO-listed. The colourful streets of the old city and Getsemaní and the San Felipe fortress are the main sights.

Ways to spend your day

  • Cartagena Historic Center

    Selected streets and exterior views inside the walled city.

  • Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas

    Selected available areas of San Felipe fortress.

  • Port Oasis Ecopark

    Selected permitted garden and wildlife-viewing areas at the terminal.

Day 5

Panama Canal (Cruising) / Colón

Panama Canal (Cruising)

Colón

Colón is Panama’s Caribbean cruise gateway, served by the Colón 2000 passenger complex. Most guests transfer toward Gatun locks views, Fort San Lorenzo, or Panama Canal transit days rather than lingering downtown. Use the terminal address on your documents for meeting shore transport.

Ways to spend your day

  • Agua Clara canal views

    Make Agua Clara your main visit and confirm the day’s operation before arranging both rides.

  • San Lorenzo fort

    Choose the fort as a single outing with current access and return transport checked.

  • Portobelo heritage visit

    Choose a manageable part of Portobelo and confirm the specific sites you intend to visit.

Day 6Cruising.A full day at sea aboard Celebrity Beyond. Sailing from Colón toward Oranjestad.

Day 7

Oranjestad

Aruba

Town flavors or a beach day.

Oranjestad docks in the middle of town, with the pastel Dutch frontages and the shops immediately outside the terminal. Aruba's draw is the beach rather than the capital, and Eagle and Palm are both short rides north.

Ways to spend your day

  • Town & Dutch pancakes

    Browse town and the waterfront, with pancakes or lunch at Renaissance Marketplace.

  • Eagle Beach

    Choose Eagle Beach for your main outing, checking shade and rentals before settling in.

  • Palm Beach & food

    Choose Palm Beach for a beach area with nearby restaurants and watersports.

Day 8

Willemstad

Curaçao

Choose town or the coast.

Willemstad docks beside Otrobanda, and the walk across the Queen Emma pontoon bridge into the painted Handelskade frontage is the best free thing in the southern Caribbean. Curaçao's shore diving is unusually good and starts a short ride east.

Ways to spend your day

  • Waterfront & Punda

    Explore the colorful city waterfront and choose a lunch stop around the harbor crossing arrangements.

  • Lunch in Otrobanda

    Make a waterfront meal the focus, with a shorter walk and no need to fill the whole day with stops.

  • Mambo Beach

    Choose one beach area with a clear entrance, facilities and return pickup.

Day 9

Kralendijk

Bonaire

Waterfront or island water.

Kralendijk docks in the middle of a very small capital, and Bonaire's entire draw is underwater: the island's west coast is a marine park you can enter from the shore. Bring or rent a mask rather than booking a boat, and the day organises itself.

Ways to spend your day

  • Waterfront & lunch

    Explore town on foot and choose breakfast or lunch by the water.

  • Te Amo beach stop

    Use a return taxi for a beach outing without a second boat connection.

  • Klein Bonaire picnic

    Choose the offshore beach only when the water-taxi schedule leaves a comfortable return.
