Thanks for the replies. Looking to make the excursion bookings this week and will come back with final reservations!

Hi,

We are booked on the NCL Jewel, starting July 1st and will be stopping at Kethcikan, Juneau, Skagway and Victoria. Travelling with my parents (65+) and a 7 year old. Any recommendations on easy-moderate excursion activities as well as specific tour companies would be greatly appreciated!

Parents are specifically interested in the helicopter/float plane excursions. Looking for recommendations on which port (along with companies) to reach out to.

We are still cruise newbies and am still trying to figure out all the details :)

Thanks in advance!

Hello-

We are first time cruisers and a family of 8, with one child (6 years old) and two parents (60 years old). Our cruise, NWL Star, will be docking in Warnemunde for about 16 hours and we were wondering if we should make the trip to Berlin.

Its the first day of the cruise, and we are all quite excited, but also realize that Berlin is 3 hours drive or train ride. Would you recommend going to Berlin via train or car?

We are using SPB tours for a private tour in St. Petersburg, and are considering booking a tour with them for Berlin as well. Any recommendations or guidance would be really appreciated!

Regards,

Thank you everyone for the insightful guidance!

We are a family of 8 and will be taking the Norwegian Star Cruise this August. This is our first time on a cruise and there are three generations. Two folks who are 60 as well as a 6 year old child.

While looking at the day excursion options, I have been a little overwhelmed and am hoping to get some advice. Should we do a cruise or private tour?

Berlin (Warnemunde) - same day excursion

Tallin, Estonia - same day excursion

St. Petersburg - two days excursion

Looking for specific recommendations for operators.

Thanks in advance!
