YouTube Video Description

🌟Contact me to book your next cruise🌟 https://www.shannonford.com/booktravel Join us as we embark on the @RoyalCaribbean Freedom of the Seas out of Port Everglades in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida for a 6-night Spring Break Caribbean Cruise. In today's vlog, we are in Falmouth, Jamaica which is about an hour and a half away from Ocho Rios. We chose the Amazing Dune Buggy with Lunch Excursion through Royal Caribbean. Now we had done this excursion 14 years ago, but I realized later, this was when RCCL stopped in Ocho Rios. It takes place at the Yaaman Adventure Park and the bus ride to get there was over 90 minutes each way. It was fun, but I do not recommend it for that reason. The Dune Buggy ride was maybe 15-20 minutes TOPS and its a 3 hour bus ride to do that. None of us thought it was worth the time to get there, though we did have fun. I did see there was the Falmouth Chocolate Factory in the port, so we made a point to stop there before getting back on the ship. This was amazing. Nick was incredible and gave us samples to try and I purchased 2 bags of chocolate. My only regret was not purchasing more. I see that he now has a Make Your Own Chocolate Bar Excursion and I definitely want to do that next time we visit. I did get my hair done at the salon and then Rider and I went to see the ice show called FreedomIce dot com. He really enjoyed it, even though he fell asleep during the last song. It was also Taste of the Caribbean Night in the Main Dining Room which is one of my favorites and Ray and I ended up back in the Schnooer Bar before calling it a night.
