Narita Posted January 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Have you rented a villa with travel mates for a week and then joined a cruise? TA investigating this sort of trip with compatible previous fellow travelers/friends. Is it risky? to move in with friends (5 couples) for a week. It feels different than the privacy of a ship. Im trying to evaluate that or just cruising for another 7 days before or after the scheduled cruise on Seaborne . Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaneBP Posted January 11, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I think there are so many variables, such as the itinerary, the final location, sharing costs, things to do, and of course, how well you know these friends. I would be tempted to plan a week after the cruise; it might seem easier to separate for excursions and then perhaps meet for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im trying to evaluate that or just cruising for another 7 days before or after the scheduled cruise on Seaborne . Any thoughts? That would be easy for me....cruise an extra 7 days. Trying to please that many people is very difficult. Lola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SantaAna,CA Posted January 12, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Narita, I've done one seven day cruise with Seabourn and three 14 day cruises. Hands down...seven days is not enough. You just get settled in and you receive your luggage tags for disembarkation. Huh uh. Can you swing a few days pre cruise someplace? I usually fly in early and have some fun relaxing at a resort or whatever. Really fun to anticipate while (maybe) adjusting to time changes. Best wishes for 2009!

seapenarth Posted January 12, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 12, 2009 You are right. We can`t do less than 21 days now. It`s great to get on and unpack and find when you leave the ship all the fashions have changed. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still want to cry when I leave the ship.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
