      Yes it was a much more interesting experience than taking a 45 min flight and less hassle than airports. Also save a nights hotel.

    Sleeper ferry or any other sleeper transport is great. It allows you to travel in the most efficient way and it gives you some great views as well.

    A really informative and entertaining vlog…question did you purchase your tickets on line or you walked up day of embarking and purchase the tickets at the Ferry? Also the ticket price on the vlog was that a one way fair price or round trip fee?

    • @Departures1
      @Departures1  Před 2 lety

      I purchased mine ahead of time. They do it by email not online. I could have bought it the day of but I never like to take a chance. Prices were one way.

    I'm going to Domincan Republic later this year and trying to also do this ferry overnighter to Puerto Rico. Will a UK passport allow me to do this? Or not? Just curious as most reviews I read or watch are those with a US passport so just thought you may know.

    • @Departures1
      @Departures1  Před 2 lety

      Check the Govt website for entry requirements but I'm sure UK passport is fine You can also ask the ferry company directly. They did not do online sales when I went, I had to send a scan of my Canadian Passport so they will tell you if there are any entry issues.
