Hi Lynda,
As far as currency is concerned, we would refer you to page 8 of the ‘Your Guide to Cruising’ booklet which is sent out with booking confirmations - I am happy to drop you an email with a scan of that page if that would be any easier.
In regards to spending money, we cannot recommend what amount you take as it totally depends on what you intend to buy. Just so you're aware, only two of our organised shore excursions for this cruise include shopping opportunities.
There will be two Tour Managers on your cruise and you will be transferred to the ship on arrival in Barbados as part of the cruise fare.
I hope this helps.
Kindest regards,
Monty
