About the trip

This 14-night cruise aboard Ambassador Cruise Line’s Renaissance begins and ends in Bridgetown, Barbados, charting a course through the southern Caribbean. Early days find the ship in Curacao and Bonaire, islands known for Dutch colonial architecture and coral reefs that invite snorkelling beyond the ship’s deck.

The itinerary continues through several French and English-speaking islands including Pointe a Pitre in Guadeloupe, St. John's in Antigua, and Basseterre in St. Kitts. In Dominica, passenger can stroll rainforest trails, a rarity among Caribbean itineraries, while Castries in St. Lucia offers glimpses of volcanic peaks beyond the busy port.

The route loops back through Curacao before returning to Barbados. Rituals like rum tastings on board connect the dots between the sugarcane plantations around these islands and their modern-day culture. It is a steady-paced cruise, slipping between the islands with enough time ashore to appreciate local character without rushing through.
