Oranjestad, ArubaNov 11, 2024
Arrive - 8:00 am | Depart - 11:00 pmThe capital of Aruba is made for walking. Browse the candy-coloured townhouses, architectural details, and open-air patios that define this charming Dutch community. Gentle trade winds tame the Caribbean sun, shoo the infrequent rain, and maintain the perfect conditions for windsurfing and kiteboarding. When it’s beach time, dig your toes into the soft white sand and soak your skin in the warm Caribbean water. Divers and snorkelers flock to to Aruba for its vibrant coral reefs, neon tropical fish, and eerie old shipwrecks. Or, venture to De Palm Island for water sliding and banana boat riding. When it’s time to shop, browse Aruba’s boutiques and find the leading designers at Renaissance Mall. Uncover local crafts in the marketplace nearby. Find everything from haute cuisine to casual food. Maybe even discover an ostrich burger on the menu.
Kralendijk, BonaireNov 12, 2024
Arrive - 8:00 am | Depart - 6:00 pmKralendijk is the sleepy capital of Bonaire, an island in the Dutch Antilles. Kralendijk is lined with delightfully pastel stucco houses, in pinks, oranges and lime greens. Famous for its diving, the lively world under the sea is the allure of this laidback island. The island is surrounded by a marine park that starts at the beach and extends 200 feet in depth and covers its entire coastline. Cruises to Bonaire also offer such treats as flamingos, hiking and the only barefoot casino in the Caribbean. Head downtown to the Rincon section for a great selection of restaurants with menus offering authentic local fare, like the Dutch snack, Frikandel, a deep-fried sausage or the Creole gumbo stew called Yambo.
Willemstad, CuracaoNov 13, 2024
Arrive - 7:00 am | Depart - 5:00 pmExperience a traditional Dutch cityscape painted in distinctly Caribbean colours.

Visit 17th-century Fort Amsterdam in the historic area, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Netherlands established a settlement here in 1634. Today it reflects Spanish and Portuguese styles, as well as Dutch. But on cruises to Curaçao, the sun warms your skin to remind you it's the Caribbean. Swim with charming, clever dolphins—an unforgettable experience—or go below the surface on a reef dive. In the Punda shopping district, explore Willemstad’s vibrant open-air markets. You'll find traditional blue Delft figurines and wheels of cheese.
