Help needed for excursions selections

[sickatsea]

HELP NEEDED, PLEASE, Dec. 1, 2013

 

Anyone have suggestions or available space for two people to join you on an independent (from HAL) excursion?

Looking also for info on walking into town from port, or any other tidbit you care to offer.

Immediate interest is in following sites:

Lautoka, Fiji

Papeete

Manta

Lima (Callao)

Noumea

Ile des Pins

Victoria

Mauritius

La Possession

Walvis Bay

Georgetown

Dakar

Mindelo

Bridgetown

Roseau

Philipsburg

:rolleyes:

Many thanks.

Per board rules, tour shares are arranged on your roll call. Don't know what ship you are on, so here is the Master List of HAL Roll Calls:

 

http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=86

 

You will also see what your fellow cruisers are doing, and get ideas.

 

As we know nothing of your interests, dislikes, budget and other limitations, etc, some research on the Ports Boards, here:

 

http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=5

 

and some research on the excursions offered by HAL- to find out the highlights and points of interest in each of your ports- would be very helpful in narrowing this very broad question.
