My family wants to experience the Magic in 2014. I'm torn between the 7-day Med. cruise that ports out of Barcelona and visits stops in France and Italy, or the Southern Carib. cruise that ports out of San Juan, Puerto Rico and visits other island ports throughout that region (Antigua, Barbados, St. Kitts among others). Does anyone have thoughts or advice between the 2 destinations??? Cost-wise, the cruise fares are comparable since they are both 7-day cruises on the same ship. However, the airfare will be substantially more for the 4 of us to do the Med. cruise since flying to Europe is much more than flying to Puerto Rico. I've been to Italy many years ago, and it's beautiful. My wife has never been. Neither of us have been to the Southern Car. islands south of Puerto Rico, so that cruise also attracts us. Our kids are 11 and 8 - the very adventurous types who've become expert little travelers (esp. on cruises). We think they would enjoy either destination.
