Last may we did a long cruise on princess with both non- and refundable OBC. We used all the non-refundable and were told we would receive a check by mail for the $200 refundable. After a few months, no check! Checking with both TA and princess, they gave me the contact for the company they outsource this with. I called many times over the last year. Put on long holds, and left multiple messages. Never got a hold of anyone or a return call. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know a solution to get my credit back? Thanks, Karen

We did the expedition cruise with hurtigruten to the Scottish islands in may and we loved it! The weather in may was wonderful and the crew couldn’t have been better. We did all the included excursions., although there were other interesting trips offered each day, so we wish we had two days in each port to do everything. The Expedition staff were very knowledgeable and loved to engage with the passengers. Additional presentations on board kept us very busy. The cabins, unless you book a suite, are very small and beds could be better but it was an educational trip not a traditional cruise and we loved it and were very glad we went. I would book another one without any hesitation. We were on Maud. Let me know if you gave any questions. Karen

Taxi transfer from Zeebrugge to Bruges
marco2111 replied to Travrat's topic in British Isles/Western Europe
Just did cruise express today to Bruges. Dropped off where all the buses park so its a little walk to the center of town but taxi can go right into center, if you want to pay the extra. Had a wonderful day, be sure you do a canal cruise! -
We will be on Maud.

We actually booked the remote islands cruise for May 22. Never been on hurtigruten trip but it looked very interesting. We booked on the Norwegian website and got a 2 for one deal. (Something else we have never done, we usually use travel agent for cruises). We were already spending time in England so we thought we would try it! I can report back when we return. Karen

Victoria BC- Butchart gardens or explore the city
marco2111 replied to 5arbusto's topic in Canada (Alaska/Pacific Coastal)
Just spent a few days in Vancouver and Victoria. We rook the ferry to Victoria from Vancouver, and stayed two nights. We then took the public bus to the gardens, ($5 all day ticket) so we could spend as much time as we wanted. We missed going to the butterfly garden on the same bus route but others enjoyed that too. Really enjoyed Victoria and wish we had spent more time there -
I saw a posting that Peru was preventing cruise ships from docking if there is any Covid cases on board. We are on a Lima to B.A. cruise starting Nov.19 with one other stop in Peru. Anyone have any further info on this? Has anyone needed a covid test lately before boarding in Lima? I realize this is the beginning of cruising season in south america so this may be changing. Thanks, Karen

We are on an Alaska cruise out of Vancouver. Anyone have a suggestion to spend the day after we get off the ship in Vancouver? Our return flight is at 11pm. We had planned to do princess 's hop on bus but recent reviews are really bad. Anyone use it recently? We found a tour to whistler but that' the only all day tour we found. We are spending a few days precruise in Victoria and Vancouver so we hopefully will have done most touring in vancouver Thanks Karen

Hop On Hop Off bus yes or no?
marco2111 replied to wilderness1's topic in Canada (Alaska/Pacific Coastal)
WE also planned to use the hop on/off bus to fill the day after we get off the ship. We have until 11pm to wait for our plane! The recent reviews sound horrible. I found a day trip up to Whistler but haven't found any other trips that we can take our luggage and get dropped at the airport. Any suggestions? -
