  1. We are on that cruise Call Oceania..they will straighten if out. That's what I did
  2. Depends on the port We had a couple of places where the shuttles stopped for an hour during lunch times Each night they leave a copy of CURRENTS. It will give info about the port. Very helpful.
  3. We did a 35 day Australian circumnavigation of Australia on Oceania. Was great
  4. Our private excursion includes the canopy walk and a half hour stop at Cape Coast Castle which is a UNESCO world heritage site
  5. The old bag had a zipper all the way across the top. I felt it was safer.
  6. Anything specific we have to do in order to text? It would be grand to be able to text my husband on the ship. We're frequently looking for each other
  7. There used to be a stand/canopy set up in town offering a trip to kolmanskop. Someone posted a photo but I cannot now find it. Does this still exist!
  8. I can tell you it WASN'T my guy ..Sipson Tours. He is listed with Viator if you Google Sao Tome shore excursions.
  9. They might have texted or emailed a friend/relative and that person picked contacted the local media. We saw the story first on our local TV station (NBC affiliate) since we are in the town next to where the Campbell's live. My guess is then the national channel picked up the story. And there are so many unanswered questions.
  10. It was an actual tour company. I emailed the article to my guide there and asked if it was him and he told me what company it is.
  11. We'll be docked there this November. Doing an Oceania cruise this time.
  12. WE booked first week January 2024. I don't think this cruise was originally supposed to be. Because of what is happening at the Red Sea, i think they had to reroute. Its' the November 14th Barcelona to Capetown Cruise. WE just took the cruise without airfare. No sale.
  13. I also regularly check prices. Our November 2024 cruise that we booked for roughly $8,200 pp is today $12,000 pp. That's insane. Wonder if it's a misprint.
  14. It definitely was a private tour. But the 80 year old was on an NCL tour. But that's another story
  15. They were supposed to reboard in The Gambia but that port got cancelled. The next port is Senegal. No word on if they ever got back on ship.
  16. Everyone on Sao Tome knows who ran the tour. I know who ran the tour.Their website looks good. Wondering what delayed them. I have a private tour later this year. NOT WITH THAT COMPANY. I spoke to my guide and he knows what time i want to be back.. We are starting at the furthest point and working our way back to port. The passengers were interviewed on our local station. They come from the area. They and their guide should have kept an eye on the time. In any case NCL doesn't look good in the press.
  17. According to the news i heard the next port is The Gambia Monday morning...is it Monday there yet? Do you know what port was cancelled? Just curious
  18. Any word on whether these people finally got back on ship?
  19. Thanks. On our Australian cruise last year, a Rollcall person on the previous leg set it up. I kept the list. I have found Corporate Miami to give me the runaround. On other cruise lines we've been on, they have been much more helpful in arranging M&G. On Norwegian Pride of America, they left us thank you pineapple dipped in chocolate in our cabin....for cc passengers
  20. I know there is someone on the ship who can help set up Meet &Greet but I forget who....maybe head concierge?
  21. I'm planing on volunteering to host the meet & greet. Definitely want it on embarkation Day. Hoping to get someone on our cruise who is also on the preceeding segment to help. This worked because that person was able to talk to someone on the ship to set it up. I kept the list. I found the lady at the Oceania Miami office to be less than helpful. We had 61 people and it was great.
