Question about travelling with a toddler...(cruise) PLEASE HELP!

We are going on a cruise in less than 4 weeks with my 4 year old and my 22.5 month old (she'll turn 2 a week after the cruise).

I just read that once we arrive in the Bahamas, it will be a 10+ minute drive to get to Freeport or any other "town".
I would not feel safe holding them on our laps while we drive to the places we want to see.

I am going to bring their carseats on the plane/cruise boat...

Am I supposed to lug around a large carseat the entire day that we are on the different islands? Chat Icon

How is this going to work?? Thanks.

On all the cruises I have been on I have never seen anyone bring a carseat.

I will just be holding Andrew for all the tours.

Many buses in other parts of the word aren't equipped for carseats. You would need to find a bus that is able to accomodate you, or just hold him.

Cruisecritic.com also has great advice for family cruising. I know I have seen that topic over there quite a few times. Maybe there is a different type of product you could purchase to keep him safe.
