crzn4fun Posted August 29, 2006 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I am working with DenRus on a 2 days private tour for next summer. The second day ends with us arriving back at the Jewel at 5pm. The ship sails at 6pm. I am a little nervous about this. Do any of you have experience with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsjb1 Posted August 29, 2006 #2 Share Posted August 29, 2006 We did Red October and had the same schedule. There was no problem. The guides are all in touch by cell phone so that if there is a traffic problem , they are aware of it and can plan accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polecat Posted August 29, 2006 #3 Share Posted August 29, 2006 If you want to get back to the ship a little earlier the Denrus guide will adjust the schedule accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLin Posted August 29, 2006 #4 Share Posted August 29, 2006 We just got back and did a tour with Red October. Our schedule was like yours. It was no problem. The guides adjust accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgenia Posted August 29, 2006 #5 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Agree with the above posters. Did two day Value Excursion with Denrus last month and they keep a very close watch on the time. If doing a private tour, just ask to come back a little sooner if you are uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crzn4fun Posted August 29, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Thank you for your replies. I want to try to fit in as much as possible in the 2 days. Our tour ends with St. Isaac's Cathedral. My guess is that as the afternoon goes on the places we see will get closer to the ship so that the traffic won't be as much of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgenia Posted August 30, 2006 #7 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Trust me, you will see so many palaces and cathedrals in your two days that they will blend together!!! Also, if you get an opportunity to do the Cossack folkloric dance evening program that Denrus offers, that was a teriffic evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JodiBB Posted August 30, 2006 #8 Share Posted August 30, 2006 We did RO last summer with the Jewel as well. We were back with plenty of time to spare to do some shopping at the port and pick up last minute items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
