butterfly21 Posted October 7, 2018 #83 Share Posted October 7, 2018 We have booked Fire & Ice on Explorer, 27th July 2019. It seems tailor made for us as we dock in Akureyri on my 60th birthday and it has been a lifetime dream for me to go whale watching. We are going to book whale watching and godafoss falls for the day so hopefully we will actually spot a whale. :D:D I was very excited to read in SausPud's post that on the evenings of days 5 and 6 we would definitely see whales - wow!!!! We have cruised to Norwegian Fjords twice before but absolutely loved it, particularly on Thomson Celebration. Sailaways were phenomenal. We have booked a balcony cabin on either deck 8, 9 or 10 but not a specific cabin. If anyone has any suggestions as to which deck or side of the ship is best for this cruise, I would be very grateful to hear their views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devonboy51 Posted October 7, 2018 #86 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Going on the Marella Explorer on 9th June on the cruise to the North Cape, Norway's Midnight sun. First time for my wife heading north on holiday. Have many years of experience of sailing in and out of the Norwegian fjords, around the North cape and up to Svalbard myself on merchant ships, but first time for my wife in this area. Looking forward to it, but first things first we are on the Discovery in just over 4 weeks on the mesmerizing Mediterranean cruise.

There is no self-service laundry but you can get your cabin steward to take a bag of clothes to be washed for a fee. Personally, I'm on holiday and don't do laundry.

irenebaird Posted October 17, 2018 #94 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I know, I wouldn't normally, but as I'm going on a stay afterwards I would like to refresh a couple of things.I need to be careful with my baggage allowance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
