We went on Reflection April of '23 and had an absolute blast. The DJ's made every night dance filled. RC Symphony of the Seas was a huge let down when we went in April this year.

Informative video! Question about the casino. If you are playing the slots and do not have a drink package, do they charge for a beverage?
@DocksideTravel

We can't speak for the slots - but we have seen players at the tables get comped drinks! Perhaps one of our other viewers can chime in on the slots???

Here is the link to Celebrity’s MoveUp Program. It explains it better than we could - but in a nutshell if there are higher category rooms left before you sail you can place a bid on them and if accepted you get the room!

We kept our food selection fairly basic with chicken tacos and nachos. The salsa and guacamole were great and we thought the food overall was very good. It's hard to beat the quality of the food on the ship but we like to try the local offerings and we were not disappointed here. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the video. I’ll be going to GC for the first time ever in less than two months. We’re thinking about taking a bus to the seven mile beach as well. It seems pretty easy but what about on the way back? You guys hitched a ride with friends but is it as easy to catch a bus ride back to the port? Thanks!!
@DocksideTravel
@DocksideTravel Ай бұрын
Taxis are usually readily available in the public beach areas, but we have also asked the hotel or restaurant to call us a taxi. We have never used the bus so we can’t offer any advice on that. We hope you enjoy Grand Cayman as much as we do!

You were next to sister Freedom in Nassau.. Your starboard side was cheering our dock runners.. you got to pull out before we did. I was the one on Freedom's heliport yelling " Where are you going? You can't just leave us here!". It was hilarious. I think our next one will be on Liberty.. cheers! 😃

Would it be reasonable to book the dolphin encounter and then head to Nachi Cocom for lunch and beach relaxing? I’m wondering how efficient the dolphin encounter would be.
@DocksideTravel
@DocksideTravel 2 ай бұрын
It might be a stretch - it would really depend on how quick you could get to Chankanaab and what time your dolphin encounter was. The taxis wouldn’t be a problem as there were plenty of them when you are ready to leave. Maybe contact the park and ask what time the dolphin encounters start?

Further up the beach from Tillies - in the area known as the "Public Beach" - would be the bets place to look for that. We brought our own gear so we didn't notice any specific rental locations.
