Need some advice. We love Oceania but right now I am really annoyed with them. We have a bucket list trip coming up on the Marina to the Amazon, and most of the good excursions were booked up months ago. The whole point of the trip for us is experiencing the Amazon, and if the ship can get us there but we can’t explore it, what is the point? Oceania markets itself around experiencing small destinations but they aren’t backing it up.
For Manaus we have been waitlisted for a Jungle Trek excursion for 2 months now. And they can’t get more excursions arranged with this much time?! Whoever runs the excursions needs to be replaced. They literally “have one job”.
So, any advice for experiencing the Amazon? And does Oceania schedule more excursions once we are on board? I fear once on board, with poor internet connections we won’t be able to arrange our own tours. And, we arrive at 9:00am and some of the excursions start at that time so I don’t know if we would be there in time.
Thoughts?
Ps we did manage to book an ecological tour excursion for the following day, but we wanted an additional opportunity to experience the jungle/rivers
