Anyone cruised the Amazon on the Hanseatic?

[DizzyZiggy]

Hi Everyone,

I can't find one review here on Cruise Critic about the Hapag-Lloyd MS Hanseatic, let alone my intended cruise down the Amazon from Iqitos to Belem. Does anyone have experience of such an Amazon Cruise?

I wish, that would be amazing! I found a CC Editor Review of the Hanseatic: http://www.cruisecritic.com/reviews/review.cfm?ShipID=622. Not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I hope it provides some info for you. Have a fantastic cruise! :) Also, check out the South America Ports of Call boards for Iquitos and Belem by doing a Search. There are some threads discussing Amazon cruises that may be helpful.

Thanks for that. Very useful. Are there roll calls for Hapag-Lloyd cruises or any other reviews of cruises down the amazon?

Sorry, no Roll Calls, although I did find two threads (in the 'All Other Cruise Lines Roll Calls') for the Hanseatic that may be of some use regarding the Hapag-Lloyd experience: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/search.php?searchid=83407112. No CC reviews for this cruiseline/ship other than the link I posted above.

Once again, thanks for your hard work. Clicking on the link IN THE IPAD APP doesn't seem to work properly for me, I'll try in on my PC when I fire it up later. I've got confirmation of the 16 day cruise starting on 27th April 2017, over a year away. Do you think it's worth setting up a roll call?

You are very welcome, DizzyZiggy. That link isn't working for me either. Under ROLL CALLS, the first one is 'All Other Cruise Lines Roll Calls' (here is a link: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=72). If it doesn't work, just go to the 'All Other Cruise Lines Roll Calls', then do a Search (Search this Forum, upper right of page) for Hanseatic. That is where the two threads came up, although one is useless, as it didn't receive any responses.

 

Regarding starting a Roll Call, why not, you may find others. Granted, Hapag-Lloyd isn't a large presence on CC, but at least it's there if someone is interested. :)
