Join us for a unique and enriching experience aboard the luxurious NCL Encore.
Fly in a day or two before the cruise to enjoy Miami's amazing medley of cultures and flashy urban settings. Visit the trendy Art Deco district of South Beach, Calle Ocho in Little Havana, the super-upscale neighborhoods of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables and the unique ecosystem of the Everglades.
Enjoy all the activities that the Encore has to offer!
Puerto Plata (officially known as San Felipe de Puerto Plata) is the ninth largest city in the Dominican Republic and the capital of the province of Puerto Plata. For spectacular city views, take a ride up the Pico Isabel de Torres mountain which stands over 2,600 feet high. If you're a history buff, visit Fortaleza San Felipe, which was built in the 16th century and served as a prison under the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo. Or head to the Amber Museum, a museum filled with a unique collection of valuable Dominican amber which is semiprecious tree sap that has hardened for millions of years capturing many fossils of plant and insect life.
The town of Charlotte Amalie has one of the most breathtaking harbors in the world. Once home to pirates of long ago, today visitors find treasures of a different kind, for now beautiful beaches and bountiful duty-free shopping are truly its claim to fame.
This exotic, peaceful island is home to both towering mahogany trees and white-sand beaches. The region offers a challenging hike that extends 1,780 feet up Sage Mountain. A great spot for great birdwatching and breathtaking views of Tortola and neighboring islands.
A lovely day at sea!
All Norwegian cruises to the Bahamas feature a whole day visit to Great Stirrup Cay, an idyllic island paradise reserved just for Norwegian guests. Stroll along soft, white-sand beaches and enjoy the many activities the island has to offer. Snorkel and see underwater delights, kayak in crystal-clear water, then get revved up on a WaveRunner® adventure. The fun is endless here. Grab a bite at the new 8,500- square foot beach buffet and simply relax.
Welcome back to Miami! You're welcome to extend your trip in this amazing city or make your way home.

I can help with pre- and post-cruise hotels and transfers to and from the airport or cruise ship, if you'd like.
