If you don't have room for 4 pieces of luggage under the bed put the carryons into the larger suitcases.

Uniworld and Ama do the same thing in their brochures.

I’m sorry I turned my Oyster Card in when I could still get my £5 back. I would prefer to keep it separate from my credit card. However, that was in 2019 and I’m not sure when I will be back in London so it was probably for the best.

You have to get up early because you have to be out of your cabine fairly early (usually 8 am).

It sounds like we are on the same cruise. I agree with you about the Viking Village, but the excursion should get me back in time to do the 2:55 Flåm Railway which I have already booked. (I was worried about that one because of the timing, but Silversea has a Flåm Railway excursion that is on this trip, so I think that I will be OK.)

I would choose the cruise. In fact, my morning included excursion (which was to include both the cruise and Stegastein Viewpoint) has been cancelled, and replaced with the cruise and a visit to the Viking Village at Gudvagen but not the viewpoint. And it is now an extra cost excursion, but I’m sticking with it.

Not experience, but it is definitely not the way it should be. However, I don't believe that waiting until the after cruise survey to say anything was the right way to go about it. As I said in the previous post, I would have arranged to talk to the chef.

I really think you had a weird chef. After no more than 2 days in your situation I would have asked to speak to the chef.

On My Silversea when you select shore excursions you can print off My Activities from the top menu. This doesn’t give details of the tours, but lists what you have selected. You can also print off (lots of pages) the entire tour programme from the same menu. I have saved multiple copies ( at different dates) of My Activities. You can also screenshot each chosen activity from the timeline. If you click on the i in a circle for any excursion you can get more details. You can copy and paste that into another document.

Not everyone has one. Have you tried clicking on Expand signature at the bottom of the post to see whether there is something hidden?

Sorry. I misspoke. You can see signatures on iPhone.

It looks like you don’t have view sinatures set to on. I found the toggle switch in my own signature, but I’m on my phone so can’t easily point you there. You can’t see signatures except your own on iPhone, but you should be able to see them on your MacBook.

Having been to Kirkwall as well as the many other sights on Orkney on a land trip, Skara Brae was far more interesting than anything to be seen in Kirkwall town itself.

I was just comparing a previous version of the Tour Programme for my cruise (saved in December 2023) with the current one. The previous version clearly showed Included Excursion and Select Excursion headings, with prices for included excursions showing as N/A, and showing prices for select excursions. I just saved the most recent Tour Programme, and now all excursions are under Shore Excursions and all have prices with them. I realize that this might have something to do with the new fare category, but if you are supposed to have included excursions you can't tell anything from this document any more. I realize that you have to be on My Silversea to see this document, where it is easy to see the included excursions (and find out how few of them are left, since many that were formerly included are now considered select), but I still find it a bit irritating.

I disagree. Jeans get hard and uncomfortable in the cold. Corduroys are much better for colder weather.
