Review by Salvatore Dragone for Frommer’s Caribbean Ports of Call (Frommer’s Complete)
Rating:
While Frommer’s is the king of travel advce and I have sworn by thier advice and knowledge while traveling, this particular eddition is no better than 2005 or 2006. It is a re-tread. So if you have a version from 2006 or 2005, stay with it. There is really no new information worth spending the money on. While I do not realy fault Frommer’s for using old information, since not much changes in the caribbean, it should be more clearly noted that there is not much new in thier book.

Great book to throw in your backpack and take with you on the cruise. You can bone up on a bit of the history and it will get some ideas ffor excursions or places to visit on the islands.

This book is an excellant choice if needing info on ports visited by cruisers – helped a lot, as it was our first cruise. Lots of good advice from start to finish.

A useful book for planning visits to Caribbean islands. I am using this with the descriptions of my cruise ship’s shore excursions: Do I want the shorex, or do I do the sightseeing on my own? The book also gives opinions on what is worthwhile to see and what isn’t…which you don’t get from the cruise line (everything is worth seeing). The recommendations on what to buy or not buy at each stop are also worthwhile.
The acid test for this book will come when I take the cruise: were the recommendations good or not?

This book was nice, it described the ports of call that we visited in detail.
it did not, however, contain a section for Labadee, Haiti. this is a private beach owned by Royal Caribbean Intl, so i can see why this was not included.
good book, fast shipping.
