  1. Better take a local bus with the sign centro and get off near Hotel Rosita at the beginning of the Malecon. Of course a cab is always good too. Yes it is walkable but only if you are a good walker and be aware of the heat. The walk will be along a busy road.
  2. Indeed I forgot to mention Zaanse Schans. You can take the bus as mentioned but also very easy might be the train to station Zaanse Schans, it is just a 20 minute ride. I think it is the nicest way to walk (about 10 minutes) from the station to Zaanse Schans a you will see the windmills situated along river Zaan. Trainschedule: https://www.ns.nl/en More about Zaanse Schans: https://www.dezaanseschans.nl/en/ Entrance is free, you only pay a fee if you want to enter a windmill.
  3. In case your kids are interested, visit Artis Zoo. https://www.artis.nl/en/ Also a canal boat trip is of course also nice. Some tours leave in front of Centraal Station, walking distance from the cruise terminal. https://www.lovers.nl/en/ Nemo science museum,also not far from the cruise terminal. https://www.nemosciencemuseum.nl/en/ A simple ride on one of the tram (streetcars) is always nice for kids. https://www.gvb.nl/en Dutch pancakes while sailing in this ship: https://amsterdam.pannenkoekenboot.nl/en/ Madame Tussaud museum has interesting wax famous persons: https://www.madametussauds.com/amsterdam/en/ If open the royal Palace on Dam square (almost a neighbour to madame Tussaud!). https://www.paleisamsterdam.nl/en/ So plenty to choose from. Enjpy!
  4. At 10 am local time. https://www.annefrank.org/en/museum/tickets/
  5. Indeed train is the best, but again check the schedues before traveling to see if there are repairs going on.
  6. Indeed in general train is the fastest, if you take one of the fasttrains -sneltrein -(with a small surcharge). schedules on https://www.ns.nl/en However please check your date as in summer often repairs take place and that might take extra time or diversions.
  7. As far as I know the ship docks in an industrial area, so you might need to take a shuttle into town and find a cab there. That is what we did a few years ago.
  8. I am not familiar with Cuban rum, but have a look in one of the La Playa stores in Puerto Vallarta.
  9. There is a stop in Flam according the schedule in top, so yes they sail into and from a fjord.
  10. This site might help you. Plenty of beaches in and around Ravenna. https://beachsearcher.com/en/italy/emilia-romagna/ravenna#:~:text=The average distance from the,are relatively easy to access.
  11. Victoria Plaza is opposite Centraal Station. Probably train is good option too. I have never seen a cab with car seats.
  12. Hyatt Ziva in Puerto Vallarta. You need a taxi to get there.
  13. In case you are on Facebook, check the site Vallarta Volunteers. Apart from that you can get in touch with: https://spcapvr.com/ https://yvonnekafoundation.org/ https://visit-vallarta.com/volunteer-on-vacation/ https://www.mydeztination.com/new-blog/waystovolunteerpv
  14. Yes you will find machines to buy tickets. Choosing english as language is possible as is paying by creditcard. More on the website of ns. nl https://www.ns.nl/producten/en/losse-kaartjes-toeslagen I am not sure of the window for tickets is still open, but it will be easy to get tickets. Know that you have to checkin at the gate before getting on the platform.
  15. Kusadasi. Touroperators at the dock will offer tours to Ephesus.
  16. At the tender dock you will find boats offering transportation to Oia. They sail after their boat is filled, so sometimes it takes some time. It is one way only. So either walk back to Fira, get a local bus or cab. Going back to the ship is only the cable car (often long lines so be there in time!) or walk down the donkey trail (can be slippery and not smelling nice).
  17. Another populair ons is Blue boats. https://www.blueboat.nl/en/
  18. Most workers in tourisme, bars and restaurants hardly have a salary and depend on tips. So yes please tip. (propinas)
  19. Please note Buses to Centro with the extra sign "Tunel" do not go via the hotelzone or Malecon and enter old town through Venustiano Carranza. Not too far from Playa Los Muertos. On the return be aware there are 2 Walmart! One near the cruise terminal the other near Pitillal. So check you go to the right one.
  20. Indeed Nafplion is reached by tender. The dock is in the city. On this website you will see plenty of options. Loved the place, clean and friendly people. https://nafpliocitytour.gr/
  21. There also is a hopon off bus in Nafplion. Yes it goes to the castle too. https://nafpliocitytour.gr/book-now/ and of course more tours. theck the website.
  22. Last October we used Red Taxi. Excellent driver who lives in Kotor. He was waiting for us at the tenderdock with a name sign. http://www.redtaxikotor.com/RED-TAXI-ENG.html
  23. Taxi will cost you about E,. 75,- depending traffic. Be sure to take a certified cab at the stand in front of the arrival hall, not the ""cowboys"" offering their service inside the terminal.. Please know you need to book AF house in advance online. Tickets get for sale on the 1st Tuesday of each month for the following month. No more standing inline. https://www.annefrank.org/en/museum/tickets/ You are walking distance from Rembrandtsplein, many restaurants and bars there. Also flower market is close by.
