Hi Pete...thank you so much for the information! Big Twin was the company I was looking at booking the Harley portion with. We were HOG members up until 18 months ago when DH sold his bike, long story  But there is a lot of positive information about Big Twin on the Harley BB's.
I emailed them the other night with some questions, but I haven't heard anything back yet. My questions had to do with their "deposit". It sounds as if they process the $1,000 vs. just keeping the number on file according to the wording on their website. I didn't know if that was the case and whether that deposit is for bike theft OR if it would be charged for incidental damage (ie. stone hitting tail pipe, tiny ding on gas tank, etc.) I also didn't know what the cancellation policy would be if the ship cancelled going to Aruba. Normally I wouldn't think that would happen, but we missed Valletta, Malta in November onboard Brilliance OTS and the tour we booked for the Hypogeum was non-refundable. Would you happen to know the answer to any of the questions above? I don't know how recent you were there and if any of the policies have changed from then and now.
As for the shopping, I'm not really a shopper when on vacation, but thank you for the info that there is some great shopping!  I did not know that there was an option of keeping the bike longer for a minimal amount of money. That could change everything!
