Day 1 ·BridgetownEmbark
27 Dec 2027Depart 18:00If you were to close your eyes while enjoying a "high tea in Trafalgar Square," you would swear you were in London - if it weren't for the warm breezes and emerald green waters enveloping you.

Day 3 ·Kralendijk
29 Dec 2027Arrive 08:00Depart 18:00The ‘B’ of the ABC Islands, Bonaire, and its tropical capital Kralendijk, is a haven for those looking to explore the world beneath the waves. Located in the Caribbean Netherlands, Bonaire is considered one of the best diving destinations in the world thanks to its national park designated reef lined coast. Take a water taxi to the uninhabited Klein Bonaire or the Bonaire National Marine Park for dozens of dive sites, many of which are reachable from shore. Head to Sorobon Beach and Lac Bay for windsurfing—Bonaire is also a world-renowned destination for this thrilling sport. And if you love pink flamingos, then a visit to Washington Slagbaai National Park should be high on your to-do list as thousands of them flock there every year. (In fact, Bonaire’s airport is called Flamingo International Airport.) - 4
Day 4 ·Willemstad
30 Dec 2027Arrive 08:00Depart 20:00Dating back to the 1600’s, the beautiful city of Willemstad is the capital of the island of Curacao and one of the busiest ports in the Caribbean.

Visit the Curacao Maritime Museum for engaging displays that trace the island’s considerable history or Museum Kura Hulanda, considered one of the best museums in the Caribbean. Watch ships of all sizes come through Willemstad’s channel via the Queen Emma Bridge or discover the rich colors of Dutch architecture at Fort Amsterdam, which dates back to the 1760’s. Head to Punda, the oldest part of Willlemstad, for local and international restaurants, great shopping and local specialty products like Dutch Delft Blue figurines, wheels of Gouda and Edam cheeses, and of course the original Curacao liqueur. - 5
Day 5 ·Oranjestad
31 Dec 2027Arrive 08:00As the capital and largest city of Aruba, Oranjestad (Dutch for “Orange Town”) is named after King Willem van Oranje-Nassau, the first heir to the Dutch House of Orange. Now mainly referred to as “Playa” by the locals, Oranjestad is renowned for its sunny weather year-round, with a virtually constant temperature of 28C/82F. Given the beautiful climate and myriad of pristine white beaches, no wonder some of the city’s most popular activities to do are soaking in the sun, snorkeling, sailing, fishing and boat rides. Shopping is also a common pursuit, with the vast amount of jewelry stores in Aruba offering much lower prices than elsewhere around the world. If you’re in search of locally made goods and products, visit Oranjestad’s marketplace for art and handicrafts, sample an Aruba-made Balashi Beer, and maybe even try an ostrich burger, which are widely available due to the city’s proximity to a number of ostrich farms. - 6
