Holidays

Did two weeks in the dominican republic at the start of the month

Great country great people and lifetime memories made, slightly spoilt by the good but well worth the trip. O

Feeling the holiday blues and have a week of holidays left to take so booked a week in lanzarote for 375pp through tui on there bank holiday sales today for me and the mrs for our covid delayed 10 year anniversary

Can't wait
 
Just booked a Caribbean cruise for next April from Florida, then a cruise from FL to Rome with some nice European stops. 30 nights in all.
No idea how were getting to Florida or how were getting home from Rome.

Are flights not included? They are usually are.
My father in law loves cruises but when he has not gone from the UK he has flown out to meet the boat. Sure it was part of the package.

are you departing for the cruise from Miami,if so and your booking your own flights it would be worth doing an extra 2/3 days on South Beach prior to your cruise, hotels reasonable prices, just dont stand or sit still for to long as the local dealers think your hanging around for a dime bag

We only really left our hotel complex to go on trips but from memory there didn't seem alot in the way of bars or shopping outside the resorts. I know there is a mall you can visit but we didn't go. I'm sure if you look you'll find a bar or two that you can visit though

As for hassle, we didn't get any. The locals are all lovely and friendly. You'll have a great time. :)

thanks mate,was also wondering about money, did you take dollars USA, or just a card and use the cash machine, i dont think you can buy the DR Peso in the uk?
 
Me and the wife want to do a few days somewhere next year (end of March) where the days can be pretty busy with things to do if anybody has any suggestions?

We know the obvious New York etc. but budget has taken that out of reach for now.

We're looking at Rome as a potential but know there's plenty other places that ignorantly I won't have thought about.

Rome’s a good base for travelling to Naples, Pompeii and Sorrento. Can’t recommend Pompeii enough, mind blowing how intact the place is. The Trastevere (workings quarter I think it translates to) is great in the evening and not rip off prices last time I went.
