Why I stayed on the ship in Guadeloupe… unpopular Caribbean port??

It's Day 3 on my solo Valiant Lady Southeastern Caribbean cruise and I woke up with every intention of getting off the ship and exploring around the port of Pointe-À-Pitre, Guadeloupe! All of the excursions offered through Virgin were sold out, so I had limited options for this port. As it turned out, I never got off the ship at all... watch this video to find out why!

It’s crowded in there, well not crowded, but there are people in there. That made me laugh, I’m glad I’m not the only solo cruiser that sees any amount of people as a crowd. Really enjoying your content, keep up the good work. Your Antarctica cruise has inspired me to seriously consider using my cruisenext credits for that trip. Penguins! 🐧

I went to guadeloupe recently and loved walking around town. We were going to do an all inclusive day pass at club med but decided to wander around for a few hours and return to the ship instead. Enjoyed your video 😊

Thank you! So glad to hear that! Next time I visit I’ll make sure to spend some time exploring 😊

I've been watching these because I've never been that sure about Virgin from a sort of solo Introvert vibe. It always seems a bit full on in some videos and in their marketing (though they have toned that back a bit). How do you find it goes - it obviously works for you!!!

I actually don’t find that Virgin ships ever get overcrowded - there is always somewhere to go and relax and chill if you don’t want to be around a lot of people (which I usually don’t). Tons of comfy areas to sit and read!

The Wake is my favorite restaurant on the ship. Love the warm bread, the menu and the design. Razzle Dazzle is my least favorite..like you the food disappointed me. Didn’t taste right somehow.

@MerCruisesSolo 3 ай бұрын

Yes, exactly! I definitely could have made the bread at The Wake into a full meal and been perfectly content ☺️

May I know how much you paid for this cruise? Thanks !

@MerCruisesSolo 3 ай бұрын

Without any discounts this cruise would have cost well over $3k but I didn’t pay nearly that much. I used a future voyage credit and received a significant discount because Virgin had cancelled my original booking and had to rebook me twice. Their prices have also gone up quite a bit since I booked this cruise!

@@MerCruisesSolo ok I see ! I am really interested to give a try with Virgin also as a SOLO, but will probably stay in an interior cabin for a short journey 😊
