We are going on the NCL Start out of Reykjavik. It is scheduled to depart at 6pm. So I believe we need to be on board by 4pm. Our plan is to do an abbreviated Golden Circle that day, so targeting to be on board by 3PM. Today check-in opened and the latest time slot was 1:30 - 2:00. I do not think we will have an issue, but thought I'd see if any others have boarded past the latest 'check in' slot available recently to make sure.

We are in Bergen port 6am- 8pm and have never been there before. With all those modes of transportation due have a lot of risk of not getting back in time. So guess I’ll save this for some future trip and explore the city. Thanks all for the replies,

@ericosmith, I am looking at doing this on my own when we are in port in Bergen. Did you do this and if so, how did it go?

We loved RomeInLimo when we used them on our cruise in 2015, so happy to report they are still top notch. Don’t delay in booking as in one of our ports I was too late to book with them. The tour we did was from Naples called Positano/Sorrento/Pizza School. We were in Naples in 2015 so had already been to Pompeii and this tour was perfect. Our driver Alex was great and “pizza school” was a lot of fun. The $20 add-on for pizza school is a great value. Besides the individual pizza we made, we also got salad and dessert. Originally we had 10 going so had 2 vans reserved. 2 of our group did not make the cruise and after I contacted RomeInLimo, they adjusted our reservation to one van that held 8. This was last minute and I appreciated their flexibility since it kept the per person cost down. My niece used RomeInLimo in 3 different Italy ports based on our recommendation and she said they were all perfect too.

Using the “way back machine” website, this was the wording in October 2020. So this definitely is new wording.

I read post about using an online tele-visit to get letter. Showed them the positive PCR Covid test of over 10 days old and the doctor provided the letter. From what I remember it cost $100-$150. If their doctor won’t write letter, perhaps google for that option.

I sent mine in on Saturday 5/21 and received an email back showing the obc on Monday 5/30.

I saw the flights listed with the layover connection about 2 days before I got the email. It shows up on the my summary page.

It appears the free testing will stop June 17. I received this email from NCL: In order to best comply with local regulations, all guests disembarking in Italian ports (Civitavecchia and Trieste) who require proof of a negative COVID-19 test in order to return to their home country, will now have the following options: 1. Purchase an easy-to-use telemedicine kit onboard 2. Test at your convenience at the Rome-Fiumicino International Airport (testing will not be available at Trieste airport) 3. Visit a local clinic This latest update will be in effect for all sailings beginning June 17, 2022.

Thanks for the replies!

I just did this via email. Sent email on Saturday May 7, got a reply that the transfer was done on Tuesday May10th

We decided we would do the NCL Beach Break in Corfu as we will need a relaxing day during our 10 day cruise, but when I went to reserve it, it is no longer available. So seeking advise on best beach to go to and how to get there. We will be there in the beginning of July from 12-7. I’ve searched about buses (read bit good times), taxis (a bit concerned about making sure we have a ride back), or renting a car. I also contacted Nautilus for a boat tour but they are booked. It may only be my family of 4, or could be up to 17 of us (traveling with extended family). Thanks!

When are you going? I’d before July can you let me know how it went doing on your own? Thanks!

I am in the midst of planning our June 30th Escape trip. Do you mind sharing your excursion plans?

I don’t know if this is any good, but saved this link for our trip there in July. https://www.akrotiriaudioguide.com/#opening
