Creator's Key Takeaways

The US Embassy has announced to US tourists to be cautious when they visit Nassau, Bahamas. I'm going to let you guys know in particular what the issue was for

It's always safer to book your excursion through the cruise line. I can't help but to assume that when you book through the cruise line, that the people who are affiliated with the cruise line are all licensed.

If you're going to go the route to where you decide to go the cheaper route, don't go by yourself. Try to make friends on the ship.

I would recommend as a travel agent, pay the extra money to be safer. Pay the cruise line to do excursions.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book excursions through the cruise line rather than third-party operators to ensure licensed and vetted staff.
If choosing cheaper third-party excursions, travel in groups or 'packs' rather than alone.
Stay vigilant and keep your head on a swivel when in port.
Be aware of potential predators in port areas.
