Day 1 - Galveston, Texas
 Founded in 1836 and located in the Gulf of Mexico, historic Galveston is a semi-tropical barrier island. Only 39 miles long and 2.5 miles wide, it lies 50 miles southwest of Houston. Long known for its miles of sandy beaches and Gulf seafood, today Galveston is also recognized for its treasure trove of Victorian architecture and one of the most vigorous historic preservation programs in the country.
Galveston has a way of enticing visitors to linger longer. A delightful destination, this island offers sandy beaches, boutiques and top-notch dining. Take a carriage ride through the Historic District or wander the Strand District.
Discover the giant pyramids at Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas, designed to educate visitors about the rainforest and oceans. Test your mettle on the thrilling high ropes or have fun in the amusement park. Swim, bird watch, hike, bike or relax in the Galveston Island State Park, with its unspoilt beaches and nature trails. Galveston Island has 14 museums, including the Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig and Museum.
Day 2 - A Day at Sea!
 Sit back, kick off your shoes and put your feet up during our 'at sea' days, where you can chill in the bar, lounge by the pool or enjoy a relaxing beauty treatment in the spa. For simple pleasures, why not try a game of table tennis? Or if you’re feeling energetic, now’s the chance to explore all the amazing activities the ship has to offer, from spectacular, West-End-style entertainment to adrenalin-charged sports.
Day 3 - Cozumel, Mexico
 Cozumel features great diving, snorkeling and beaches, marine-life encounters, botanical gardens, trails and shopping in the town of San Miguel. The nearby mainland is home to Tulum, Mayan cliffside ruins overlooking the Caribbean. Drive your own mini submarine, snorkel on world famous reefs or see the colourful underwater world by glass bottomed boat in lovely Cozumel, on the Caribbean coast of Mexico. There are fascinating Mayan ruins to explore too and abundant wildlife, including brightly-hued tropical birds. Look out for dolphins, manatees and sea turtles in the lovely lagoon and underwater caverns of the Chankanaab eco-park.
Day 4 - George Town, Grand Cayman
 Compact and colorful, George Town is a glitzy hub for duty-free shopping on Grand Cayman and signature Caribbean experiences. Think boating, snorkeling, relaxing on a beautiful beach, or meeting friendly stingrays at a shallow sandbar. Snorkel among tropical fish and colourful coral at Coral Gardens Reef or get up close to amazing stingrays. Parasail above the clear blue waters and glistening sands or see shipwrecks and spectacular marine life from a glass bottomed boat. Encounter endangered Green Sea Turtles at the Cayman Turtle Farm or send a postcard home from Hell, a striking outcrop of black limestone in West Bay.
Day 5 - Falmouth, Jamaica
 If you don’t know Falmouth, it’s time you discover one of Jamaica’s most unique destinations. A place with one-of-a-kind thrills at every turn, right at the center of the island’s bestknown activities and destinations. Ride horseback through Caribbean waters along a white-sand beach in Ocho Rios and climb the invigorating Dunn’s River Falls. Explore the mesmerizing Green Grotto Caves or drift down the emerald waters of the Martha Brae River on a bamboo gondola. Immerse yourself in vibrant culture as you tour the Good Hope Great House plantation and unwind on an award-winning beach in Montego. There are countless directions your vacation can take you. But in Falmouth, all roads lead to adventure. Relax to the reggae rhythms in laid back Jamaica, with its stunning mix of lush mountains, tropical rainforests and idyllic, reef-fringed beaches. Take a guided walk round Falmouth – once an important port for the sugar and rum trade - or plunge into the cool cascades of the Dunn’s River Falls. Horse ride on the beach, hike in the Blue Mountains or sip a Red Stripe on the sand – it’s what dream holidays are all about.
Days 6 & 7 - A Day at Sea!
 When our ships hit the high seas, the excitement of Casino Royale® kicks off. Try your hand at our card tables, spin to win at roulette, and hit it big time with the pull of a slot machine. Onboard, dining is about more than just food. Think ambience, variety and the flexibility to decide when and what you savor. Whether you seek an adrenaline rush or total tranquility, our ships have it all. Try rock climbing, ice skating and surfing 200 feet above the waves. Melt away land-based stress with a spa massage, build a scrapbook of memories or simply relax poolside.
