About the trip

This fourteen-night cruise sets off from Bridgetown, Barbados and loops around several Caribbean islands with a relaxed pace typical of Ambassador Cruise Line’s Renaissance. The itinerary first calls at Kingstown on St Vincent, where the harbour sits beneath a green ridge of dormant volcanoes. Next is Roseau on Dominica, a place known for its botanical gardens and warm, if occasionally damp, rainforest air.

Aruba and Curacao offer a change of scene with their dry, desert-like landscapes and a Dutch heritage visible in pastel-coloured townhouses lining their harbours. Pointe a Pitre on Guadeloupe brings a French influence, contrasting with the British colonial echoes in Castries, St Lucia, before moving on to St George's in Grenada. Frequently, the ship returns to Willemstad, Curacao, before completing the loop back in Barbados.

The Renaissance is a vessel roomy enough for relaxed wanderings yet small enough to slip between islands with ease. Those interested in the Caribbean’s variety of cultures and landscapes will find much to note, though the route demands early mornings and some stretches at sea. The returned voyage completes a neat circle around the southern fringe of the Caribbean island chain.
