bwiley123 asked:

I am going on a seven day cruise in October with my wife. I am trying to decide which cruise would be best.

The Carnival Triumph is doing on an Eastern Caribbean cruise stopping in Half Moon Cay, Saint Thomas , San Juan/Puerto Rico, and Bahamas/Grand Turk.

The Caribbean Princess (through Princess Cruiselines) is stopping at Philipsburg/St. Maarten, Saint Thomas, and Princess Cay. The Princess is also a seven day cruise but is stopping at one less place (with an extra day at sea).

What do you recommend? Any experiences with either of those ships?

    I loved the Triumph. We went snorkeling in St Thomas and the historic tour in Puerto Rico, 4 stops are alot, especially when they are in a row. Ive never been on Princess so I cant really tell but I think whichever you choose you should have a fantastic time.

    For everyone saying carnival is highly unlikely so dont base your decision from that read both of these.
