Atlantis AdventuresBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Atlantis Submarine Tour"

We've never been in a submarine. This was a lifetime experience for us. It was so cool. Grand Cayman is a beautiful place to visit. The beaches are clean, and the water is absolutely clean and a pure aqua blue. When the sub finally went underwater, it was nice to see the fish and the ocean life. We were surprised to see lots of fish and a few turtles. The scariest part of the tour was when it looked like we crossed a trench. Other than that, it was a great experience.

Shopping (General)Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Bargain Shopping at Cozumel"

We didn't get to Cozumel until later in the afternoon. We were supposed to visit Tulum, but unfortunately, our ship was delayed in arriving on time. When we left the Cayman Islands, the ship was searching for a fisherman lost at sea. We don't know if they ever found him, but we were stalled at sea for a long time. This was the reason for our delay at Cozumel.

When we got there, we rented a jeep and did our own tour of Cozumel. It's fun to do this anyway. We did our bargain shopping on the main strip. The locals are nice and fun to have conversations with. They all speak English, so there was no language barrier here. Overall, Cozumel is a great place to visit. Too bad we didn't get a chance to see Tulum. We will definitely be back.

Dunns River FallsBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Dunn's River Falls"

If you ever visit Jamaica, you have to go on this tour. You climb the falls hand-in-hand. The guide is very helpful and takes pictures of everyone at the popular spots. Do take lots of pictures. Be careful, too. The rocks that you step on can be slippery. Don't forget to bring a pair of those surfer shoes. Also, ladies, don't wear a bathing suit top that is bandeau style! Oh, let me not forget to tell you all that once the tour is over, as you leave the park, there will be hordes of locals trying to sell you things. They will definitely "get" you as you are leaving the park. We literally had to "escape"! A definite unforgetable experience in Jamaica.

Labadee (General)Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Relaxing in Labadee"

It was a nice day to relax at the beach. This is one of Royal Caribbean's private islands. It was nice and quiet. The island is big, so you can find a little secluded spot. There are many activities for everyone. Food is provided and there is music galore.
