Hi everyone.
Another one of my live reports is incoming. As usual I’m not sure how regularly I will be posting but I will try to get on every day if I can.
A bit of background for those who don’t know us. I am travelling with my wife (our third cruise by ourselves after a few years of cruising with our son, who would rather stay at home these days.
We have been NCL regulars for over 10 years now, most often in the Med, but there are a few new ports for us this time.
We haven’t sailed on a Prima class yet (we were booked on the first Prima Amsterdam to Reykjavik cruise that was cancelled), so are interested to see how we get on with these ships.
We usually book free at sea plus and have done so again this time. In addition we have booked Vibe passes. I’ve never really considered these before, but it made sense to us due to concerns about finding quiet bars outside. Whether it will be worth the cost is very debatable, but we will give it a go.
Having free at sea plus makes some shore excursions very good value, so we have booked 5 in total. Some are full tours but we have also booked the hop on hop off in Majorca (for free) and a transfer to Florence. We have two days where we aren’t planning on going ashore (Ibiza and Marseille) but have plans on most days.
Currently we are at Heathrow waiting for our flight to Lisbon, we have a day there tomorrow before boarding on Friday,
More to follow from Lisbon,
