I checked and nothing is required but I agree that checking with my md is probably the best call.

My husband and I are doing the Panama and Scenic South America cruise stopping in Panama, Ecuador, Peru, and Chile. Has anyone taking this or a similar cruise gotten vaccinations or brought special medications for traveling to this region?

Getting ready for my first cruise on an Expedition ship. We have 5 Viking Ocean cruises under our belt. I have a question. Is there a barista on board like there is in the Living Roomon ocean cruises? I’m a big iced latte fan and want to set my expectations.

Also, the living room makes a tasty decaf iced lattes.

Azamara has been on my short list of lines to try but this video has made me rethink it. I’ve watched a lot of these vloggers videos and believe me when I say that they’re not entitled whiners at all. If anything, they’re sometimes too nice. Frankly, this is not a good look for Azamara. Things happen but it’s how you handle these things says a lot about the ship. It wasn’t just one person’s unpleasantness, it seemed that the whole GR group were having issues. For those who are experienced Azamara cruisers, what makes you loyal to the line.

The thermal suite sounds amazing. Thanks for the suggestion

Thank you for your help I think I’ll book a short cruise in the spring to try it out.

I’ve been interested in trying a Holland America cruise. I’ve been on Royal Caribbean and Norwegian, which I hated because of the crowds and the noise. I’ve been recently traveling on Viking but I want to expand my horizons. I need a ship that provides a quiet place to get away. I love going to shows and clubs but having a quiet, not crowded place is necessary for me. Does Holland America have those types of places for everyone or do I have to choose a suite for that?

In looking over past cruises shore excursions, there’s multiple ports to take a dog sled ride. Does anyone have a preference or are they all kind of the same?
