12 Night Panama Canal with Costa Rica & Caribbean Holiday aboard the Caribbean Princess

Share

Prepare yourself for twelve nights of refreshing cruising through the Caribbean when you join the Caribbean Princess from Fort Lauderdale and back again.

This sailing is particularly interesting because you'll exclusively spend time in extremely rare cities like Puerto Limon and Colon. This route is an uncommon one for the Caribbean, But December is the most popular time of year to sail it.

Our price includes all meals, entertainment, taxes, and fees. No sneaky extra fees! At under $130 a day for an outside cabin, this represents a really good value.
