Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
A 50 50 chance of getting on the right ship! We were on Ventura, but I’m not sure which was ours. It must have been a Princess ship In with us

Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
I am due to go to Tobago in January 2022 on Arcadia - Not sure if it'll happen though. I've just realised that Hamilton, Bermuda is on the same cruise, which was a port on our virtual cruise that I liked the look of.
Here's a random Tobago pic from the internet

I have no pics of Scarborough, so I downloaded this one. Looks nice.

Us too. We loved Staithes but I don't see it listed for this cruise.

We had a nice day their in January 2019. Took a taxi tour and packed in loads. The beach at pigeon point is amazing for swimming. No shelving and safe to go out quite a way. It does get busy though so get there early before the excursions.

Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
I wasn't too keen on St Vincent
On our first visit there we did a tour of some sort, and there seemed to be a lot of hassle from the locals, even on a tour.

Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
We went to a Botanical Garden on our St Vincent tour, which gave some welcome peace.
We visited St Vincent on a later cruise, but there are no photos, so it looks like we stayed on board

Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
We also experienced hassle around the port. We had an afternoon boat trip which was possibly the best thing there as we got away from the constant do you want a taxi. However if I had a £1 for every time the host on the boat said "ST Vincent and the Grenadines" I would be a millionaire!

Another Tour in a white van where every stop thoughtfully provided us with a shopping opportunity

The Pitons and Margot Bay from half way up a cliff rather than actually on the Bay as we had hoped for

Re: Coronavirus Virtual Cruise
Ventura was in port for two days, so I expect they were giving the tenders a run out
