On NCL Spirit in November, we have a car rental pick up at the airport, wondering if anyone has used in the last two months.

Maui question, are there car rental shuttles at the port? We are on NCL in November and would like to know how to get to airport for car rental if there are no shuttles. Thank You! Mary

Does the Noordam have self service laundry?

I received laundry information yesterday 9.19.17 for Noordam......

For our 15 day cruise it is $105 ($7 per day/stateroom)

Otherwise they have a $20 / bag charge.

Hi Mary

 

Can I suggest you ask these questions on the Holland American board as there will be more people who have sailed on the Noordam.

Thank You for the suggestion!

I was on the Noordam last year.

 

The power outlets were US ones if that is of any help.

There are no coin operated laundry facilities, we had to send our laundry out and I'm not sure how much it cost.

The evening entertainment is very lacking. The usual shows and cabaret style acts. I find that you sail on HAL for the ports not the ship or for entertainment.

 

Hope this helps.

Very helpful! Thank You!

Looking for information on the Noordam, as we will be cruising New Zealand and Australia, then staying a few days in Sydney.

Questions -

Does the Noordam have coin operated laundry facilities? I know they offer a daily laundry service$$$.

Do I need need an adapter for our charges? Especially when we are staying in Sydney.

Do I need a converter for our chargers?

What does Noordam offer for evening entertainment for a 15 day cruise?

Can we bring a case of pop/soda or bottle water at embarkation?

Thank you! Mary

Thanks for the info! Have you personally used them?

Looking for information on the White Bay Cruise Terminal, Sydney, Australia,

Does anyone have any info or recommendations on transportation?

We are interested in sharing a private pickup /with city tour? Looking for recommendations.

Thank You! Mary

Hi marynsteve

You asked about tours in Melbourne. My suggestion for a day in Melbourne would be to take the light rail in to the city and board the free hop on hop off bus which goes to many of Melbourne's atractions ie the Melbourne Cricket Ground for a tour and the National Sports Museum, the Arts Centre and National Gallery, Federation Square including the Ian Potter gallery of Australian art, Melbourne Museum etc etc. Other nearby attractions are Old Melbourne Gaol (guided tours available), Melbourne Star observation wheel, Eureka Tower for a bird's eye view of Melbourne, the Shrine, botanical gardens (bus tour is very good), the Aquarium, Southgate etc. If you would like more details about any of these places, just ask!

Thank you for the suggestions Lesley and Des! If you have recommendations for a local small tour operators, we would love. We like to do our tours with small groups, not the large coach buses the cruise ship offers. Suggestions appreciated!

Also, if you have any info on a Great Ocean Road shore excursion, with a pickup and drop off at the cruise terminal, we are very interested. Thank You! Mary & Steve
