CRUISING THE WORLD – Latin America & Caribbean

For a first -time visitor to Guadalajara the combination of the city’s large size, lack of a regularized street pattern and relatively chaotic traffic, I strongly urge the use of a car and driver/guide. Given that street markings and information signs are written only in Spanish, it can further complicate one’s attempt to get around by use of a personal automobile. Even as an experienced driver who also fluently reads Spanish, I always elect to have a driver/guide so I can concentrate upon enjoying the overall color and ambiance of the city.

If you are planning a cruise through the Panama Canal or even if you have just contemplated the journey, then this newly minted book is just for you. I have totally revised and updated my prior book to bring the latest information and visual aids to bring the Panama Canal journey virtually to your desktop or tablet. This new edition contains the best information on touring in each port of call, recommendations on the finest dining and shopping experiences.

This is my newest revision of my popular cruise book for the spectacular cruises around the bottom end of South America between Argentina and Chile. I have given this book a new format and have also added a section for each port that details the various touring options available to you other than ship supported tours. And I provide you with valuable links to the reliable providers of touring services. This book is a valuable tool for those who will be making this cruise and who want information that is a cut above the mass market tour books.
