We are cruising there next spring. So far we plan on using this port as our excursion. How are the lazy river and pool as destinations instead of booking an excursion?

Walking around to the Fort and the Cathedral- is it far and what about shops on Umbrella street will be there in July Seascape

@ByteSizeCruises Жыл бұрын

It’s def a long walk. About 30-40 min. There are some shops there. Mostly local things which are great

Cruising there in November. Can you book an adventurous excursion at the bay if your cruise line’s excursions are sold out?

@ByteSizeCruises 8 ай бұрын

You could but they sell out as well. Viator is a really good option

Not planning on booking an excursion, but am interested in enjoying the sunshine and the lazy river. I think I spotted the entrance to the lazy river in your video. Do you recall if there are chairs nearby that river entrance? Thanks for the little overview!

@ByteSizeCruises 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching. There sure are chairs there

There are taxis offering city tours online. Is it worth taking them or is it possible to do those things walking from port?

@ByteSizeCruises 6 ай бұрын

I generally don’t recommend those tours as they are unpredictable. I would recommend enjoying the port or using an official cruise line excursion or something like viator

Is Playa El Chaparral (near Playa del Publito) a good beach?

@ByteSizeCruises 7 ай бұрын

Hi there. I am not sure. I apologize. I have not been there nor have I heard anything good or bad about it.

I just booked a cruise for 2025 on MSC but the port on my itinerary says Amber Cove. I’m confused. Lol.

@ByteSizeCruises 3 ай бұрын

Hi. Amber Cove is a different port in puerto plata area of DR. It is about 15 min from Taino Bay Puerto Plata

I’m going in couple months can I pick up my lady friend and bring her here while I’m there then take her back on a Uber

The port is a secure area so technically you must have a sea pass card to get in/out.

@ytmase2594 Ай бұрын

Do you need a Passport for DR cruising on Royal Caribbean or can you just bring a birth certificate

@ByteSizeCruises Ай бұрын

If you leave from a U.S. port and return to US port you need birth cert and drivers license If you leave or return outside the U.S. you would need a passport.

Do you need a passport if I’m going in a cruise

@ByteSizeCruises Жыл бұрын

Hi. It depends. If you are a U.S. citizen and the cruise leaves from a U.S. port and returns to a U.S. port you can use you drivers license and actual raised seal birth certificate but it is easier if you have a passport
