Your reply came at exactly the right moment and we are getting crisp dollars for the tips. As I read, most places also take credit cards but not for tips. Thank you for your answer.

Is it better to exchange US dollars for Rubles here in the states or is it easy to use the ATMs in St Petersburg?

Apparently I was not clear. I am reading my Oceania documents and they say we turn our passports into the cruise line when we board only to use the Oceania Card while on the ship. Do they return them right away so we have them when we leave the ship? I only gave the names and passport numbers to Alla for my ticket (blanket visa).

I agree that the private companies are a better price and I would think that they hire the locals. In my case we booked with Alla from our Oceania cruise, but now I am perplexed about getting my passport back to use with the ticket for disembarking at St. Petersburg . Does anyone have experience with that?

Do taxis charge per person and per piece of luggage when transporting from hotel to cruise port or is it just one price?

Thank you

We are disembarking in Stockholm and are staying on for an extra day. We would like to store our luggage without going to the city center as we have an early flight and therefore have booked a hotel at the airport. Any one have an idea?

Wishing to store our luggage once we reach the end of our Oceania cruise in Stockholm. We are staying one day after the cruise but leave very early the next morning so we have booked a hotel at the airport. It seems that heading into the city center for luggage storage would be a lot of wasted time. Any ideas?
