No 2020 itineraries for Prinsendam 😞

2020 world cruise itinerary is now available. No grand South America cruise - which it is normally done by Prinsendam. So sad 😞

Our TA forwarded us the letter HAL sent them and us re. the cancellation of the Konningsdam Oct 12 2017 cruise. They offered us 2 cruises for the same price we booked but they are in conflict with a Prinsendam cruise we also have booked. So - it is a cancel for us.

Thanks to all! Your comments helped made up our minds!

We are thinking about booking the HAL Iguazu falls 1-day tour during our stop to buenos Aires next January. Would love to hear thoughts/comments from folks who have taken this tour.

Thanks!

We recently sailed on the Ocean Princess. It took US quarters. Yes, they can provide you with change at Passengers Guest Relations.

We recently sailed on the Ocean Princess. The ship is not run down but the overall services were below par. We had a list of items we were not pleased with. We had never experienced so many issues on a single voyage. It also seemed they were short on staff. Although the ship was great, the service was not. Very disappointing.

has anyone use the services of Leo Cusmar lately?the info we find about him is couple of years old. Nothing for 2014 /2015?

thanks for all the suggestions!

We will be arriving to the Buenos Aires cruise port and would like to know what are our options to get from the port to our BA hotel upon arrival? We appreciate to learn about any experiences/suggestions that can help us out with this part of our travel planning.

thanks!

we have used them numerous times and we have always been very pleased with their service/tours. We have already booked tours with them for various areas we are visiting this year.

btw, who is the captain on your sailing? Is it Commodore Romano?

Thor51 - we appreciate sharing your current experiences. We will keep your suggestions/comments in mind.

thanks!

thanks for the suggestions/comments!

thanks to all for your comments and suggestions!

we are arriving in Naples in mid October on a Princess cruise. We would like to visit the "veiled christ statue". Can you provide us any suggestions how to best reach this destination on our own from the Naples port.

We appreciate any comments/suggestions.

Thanks!

Next spring we are arriving to Vancouver on a HAL cruise. We are not sure yet if the cruise line offers transfers from Vancouver to Seattle. But if they do not, would appreciate your input as to the options we have to get from Vancouver to Seattle. Our flight out of seattle it is scheduled for late nite on the same day we arrive to Vancouver.

Any suggestions are much appreciated!

it is definitely a personal decision. we just sailed her for the 1st time this past June/July and were a bit skeptical about it because we never sailed a small and older ship.

Well, we LOVE that ship! and we had the one of the best captains we ever sailed with!. Actually, the ship felt larger than some of the other HAL ships as it feels more airy and it is decorated a lot lighter colors.

We would love to sail on the Prinsendam again in the very near future!

ps. While we were on our sailing, they were installing wi-fi to make it accessible in the cabins. They are trying to keep this beautiful ship as up-to-date as it is possible.

we just completed (mid July) the midnite sun cruise on the Prinsendam. It was one of our top cruises ever! the sights are unbelievable! Norway is a beautiful country and with the longer days (some times days with no nites) one can enjoy every bit of the beautiful landscape.

We are sure you will find it very enjoyable and rewarding.

On our most recent cruise (1.5 wks ago), we learned both ships will have their last voyage in Oct 2015 ending in Singapore.

hello,

we are interested in hearing any comments/feedback from anyone who may have taken HAL's overnite tour (3 nites/4 days) from Shanghai to beijing. Or should we be looking at the Best of Shanghai day-tour with a 1-overnite Beijing tour? Any comments are appreciated.

thanks to all for all your comments and recommendations!

we have the same situation - arriving in Vancouver but would like to fly home from Seattle. Does Quickshuttle pick u up at the cruise port? If not, where would we need to go to use their services?

hello, our next HAL cruise disembarks in Vancouver, CA. We would like to know any thoughts/suggestions on how to best fly back to the USA - should we flight out of Vancouver or Seattle? If the suggestion is Seattle, any suggestions on how to get from the disembarkation point to Seattle?

Thanks in advance!

my DH and I booked a "couples" deal for our 4-day cruise on the Dream at $99/couple plus gratuities for unlimited use for the entire cruise. We really took advantage of it and loved it!
