4bythebeach Posted November 27, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2013 We did the bridge tour and it was kinda cool, however not as informative as we would have expected! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted November 27, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Your all access tour will be pretty close if not exactly the same as the one you last did if it's on the same ship. One component might get swapped out for something else but no major changes. For the all access with specialty dining check on line to see if it is available to book. It should open up at the same time as dining reservations or possibly with the entertainment reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabalab Posted November 27, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I inquired about this a few months ago. At the time, the "All Access Tour w/ Dining" package was only available on Freedom class ships. Not sure why, maybe things have changed since then.

sky0000547 Posted November 27, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I did the All Access Tour on Allure. It starts at the MDR and you go through the galley. And not in any particular order you will visit the food storage area, engine control room, laundry room, crew canteen, crew bars, crew mess room, helipad, mooring/anchor area, RCTV server/control room, backstage of theatre and finally the Bridge. At the end of the tour, you do get a goody bag. It is a good 3-4hrs tour. There is a separate tour for the Aqua Theatre.

This sounds amazing..unfortunately I was a bit disappointed with our Oasis D+ tour but then again it was free..We only had a quick view of the bridge and of the galley..very limited..Next time I'll opt for the paid "All Access Tour"...you get what you pay for ;).

It sounds great and I bet it must be very interesting and informative however I dont see myself paying for that. Not that price. To me it is just outrageous. Maybe if it was half of it I would think about that. Call me cheap if you want, I am really not cheap :o I just think it is a lot of money. I would ratjer spend that one one more night on a hotel when the cruise is over or something. But thats just me . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Familygoboston Posted November 28, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 28, 2013 My new best friend Randy did this tour on Allure and reviewed it with photos here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1834930 Plus he's wicked funny:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattiHere Posted November 29, 2013 #13 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I have read that you have to wear long pants and closed toe shoes. Are jeans and sneakers okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky0000547 Posted November 29, 2013 #14 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I have read that you have to wear long pants and closed toe shoes. Are jeans and sneakers okay? You are correct it needs to be long pants and closed toe shoes due to health & safety. Jeans and sneakers are perfectly fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did the D+ free tour of the bridge on the Allure. We thought it was great! The officer giving the tour was very informative. He answered loads of questions - some of the men had naval experience and really asked some interesting questions and comments. We had a group of about 15-20 people and it was well over an hour. Only regret was not taking our camera - didn't think about it, or that it would be allowed. Some of the people had cameras and I am sure got some awesome pictures. For a freebie it was a very nice perk and much appreciated. We could have done the kitchen and back stage as well, but timing was not good for us. The tours were offered as a D+ perk and not necessarily on the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was not enforced on our Oasis D+ and above tour..There were 9 of us total and 3 of them had on open toe sandals/flip-flops...nothing was said to them...even though on the invitation it clearly stated the dress code.

BugsyCruiser Posted December 1, 2013 #21 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I did the all access tour on Oasis last year and it was great seeing how they make things work on this incredible class of ships. Very informative and another plus was they allowed pictures. It was really cool being up on the bridge and having a chance to meet the master of the ship. Definitely worth the 150 charge IMHO.

If anyone is interested in doing the tour on either the Oasis or the Allure they should check out your Oasis review. Your pictures from the tour were excellent.
