Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel Jerri!
I am so glad you sailed by today. Only two short months until you set sail your high seas adventure!
The island of Tortola is breathtakingly beautiful (like most of the Caribbean). All of these
Port Adventures provide you the opportunity to spend some time with your toes in the sand. There are some key differences between each adventure that result in their varying costs.
Both the Tour to Gorda and A Day at the Baths give you the opportunity to see the famous Tortola Bathes. With the Tour (TT23) you have more beach time by an hour but the tour before and after is similar to the Day at the Baths (TT04). The nice thing about the Day at the Baths (TT04) is your lunch is included so you don't have to worry about your mid-day meal while off the ship. Both offer you the ability to tour more of the island and require some walking so you get some sightseeing in as well.
The Beach Express (TT68) and Jost Beach Transfer (TT14) are both more simple beach experiences. Transportation is included both to and from the beach with a couple hours to relax on the sand before heading back to the ship. It is important to note on the Jost Beach Transfer that you have to exit straight on the beach from the boat as there is no dock.
If you are looking for a simple beach day to just have some good, quality time in the sun, the second two Port Adventures are a best fit for you. If you are looking for closer to a full day experiencing Tortola with a bit of a tour and some longer beach time, the first two Port Adventures are perfect for your crew.
There is no wrong way to enjoy your vacation - follow your map wherever it may lead you. Bon voyage Jerri! Angie
