This cruise is noteworthy because you will only stop in rare cities like Falmouth, Jamaica. This route is an unusual one for the Explorer of the Seas. Actually, it sails it only once.

We include all all taxes and fees in the price, so there are no sneaky extra fees. At under $170 a day for an outside cabin, this represents a good value.
