Before you sail

What the fare covers, what it doesn't, and how this itinerary actually runs.

Your one sea day
The pool loungers and the shaded spots go early on a sea day — by eight in the morning on a full ship, and this one carries several thousand guests. Reserving one and leaving it is against the rules on most lines and crew do clear them, so send someone early rather than at ten.
Save the balcony money
7 port days and one sea day — you are ashore in daylight and asleep the rest. An interior cabin costs about $850 less per person, which is most of a shore excursion budget.
6 port days back to back
Early tenders and late returns, several days running, with no sea day to recover in. Pick the two ports you actually care about and let one of the others be a lie-in — the itinerary is not a checklist.
Day one and the last day are half-days
A 8-night cruise is really 7 full days. Boarding runs into the afternoon and you are off the ship early on the last morning.

Day-by-day itinerary

Day 1San Juan· Puerto Rico
Depart 17:00
Embark in San Juan.
Getting ashore in San Juan
Most cruise ships dock directly at the piers in Old San Juan, placing passengers within a very short walk of the historic district. Walking is the most realistic way to access the city center. Ships rarely anchor offshore, but tendering can occur if multiple large vessels are in port or at specific locations, which would add a tender boat ride to your journey ashore.
Walk5-15 minutesFree
The historic sites, shops, and restaurants of Old San Juan are immediately accessible from the cruise piers on foot.
Old San Juan Trolley15-30 minutes, depending on destinationFree
This complimentary hop-on, hop-off trolley service circles Old San Juan, with stops near major attractions; check for current routes and operating hours on the day.
Taxi or Rideshare10-20 minutesTypically around $15-25 USD per car
Taxis are available near the piers, and rideshares like Uber and Lyft operate throughout the city for travel beyond Old San Juan, such as to Condado or Isla Verde.
Watch out. San Juan's tropical heat and high humidity can make extensive walking tiring, especially during the middle of the day; stay hydrated and seek shaded routes.
Worth doing here
Explore the Historic Streets of Old San Juan
This allows every kind of traveller to find something of interest, from historic architecture to local shops and cafes, all within easy reach.
The main cruise terminals are right at the edge of Old San Juan, making it free to walk and explore the colorful streets for a few hours. Budget for any purchases or meals.
Visit El Morro Fortress
It offers a significant historical experience with impressive architecture, vast green lawns, and scenic ocean views for all ages and interests.
It is a moderate walk from the main cruise docks, typically 20-30 minutes, or a short trolley or taxi ride. Admission to El Morro and San Cristobal Fort is usually around $10 per adult, valid for 24 hours; confirm the current price when you arrive. Allow 2-3 hours to explore.
Enjoy Puerto Rican Cuisine
A great way for diverse palates to experience local culture through food, offering a taste of authentic dishes like mofongo and empanadillas.
Many local eateries are scattered throughout Old San Juan, easily found on foot. You can spend an hour or two trying different small plates, with individual dishes typically costing around $8-15 each. Organized food tours are also an option, usually costing around $80-120 per person for 2-3 hours.

Costs that surprise people

Specialty Dining. Restaurants beyond the complimentary options, such as Chops Grille, Izumi, or Giovanni's Table, carry an additional per-person cover charge or à la carte pricing.
Shore Excursions. Any tours or activities booked through the ship for your port stops will incur separate charges, which vary widely by destination and activity.
Spa and Salon Services. Treatments at the Vitality Spa, salon services, and access to the thermal suite in the spa are extra, with prices varying by service.
Gambling and Arcade Games. Spending in the casino, including slot machines and table games, is charged to your SeaPass card, as are games in the onboard arcade.
Photo Packages. Professional photos taken by the ship's photographers are available for purchase, either individually or as part of a package.
Select Fitness Classes. While the fitness center is included, some specialized classes like yoga, Pilates, or spinning may have an additional per-session fee.

Ways to spend less

Pre-book packages. Purchasing drinks, internet, or specialty dining packages online before your cruise often results in a discount compared to onboard pricing.
Bring permitted beverages. Guests are typically allowed to bring up to two 750ml bottles of wine or champagne per stateroom on embarkation day, for which a corkage fee may apply if consumed in dining rooms.
Utilize complimentary dining. Enjoy meals in the Main Dining Room, Windjammer Marketplace, Cafe Promenade, Sorrento's Pizza, and other included venues to avoid extra charges.
Attend free activities. Take advantage of the many included shows, live music, pool deck parties, and sports activities without incurring extra costs.
Go ashore independently. Research and plan your own activities or transport in port, which can be less expensive than booking ship-sponsored shore excursions.
Drink included beverages. Stick to tap water, iced tea, drip coffee, and select juices at breakfast, which are always available at no extra charge.
