Thank you all for your help. I didn’t see the stops on the site I was looking at. I will buy my passes ahead of time.

I am sailing in late July in Norway. Since I have previously toured Oslo, Kristiansand, and Bergen, I plan to use the HOHO buses in each city. Has anyone used the buses in these cities? Your thoughts? Do you know if there is a stop near the cruise ship terminal? Thanks in advance, Mom C

I just spoke to someone at Azamara and they said it was $30 per person. As usual, different answers from difference folks.

It seems like every post I read these days talks about increasing prices for services. Could someone who has cruised recently or is on the ship now please tell me the price to upgrade from the beer and wine complimentary package to the one that includes cocktails ( not the premium brands)? Also, what is the current tipping fee for a concierge cabin? Can I pay tips and upgrade the drink package before I get on the ship? Thanks!

Think I will pass on that. That’s a little steep for me to go and dine by myself.

Since I am traveling solo for the first time, I have not booked a Club Continent Suite—thus, I will have to pay to eat in one. When my husband was alive, we were in a suite; thus we didn’t pay and that was why I didn’t remember the charge. Do I still get house cocktails included in the price? Thank you, Mom C

Ooops! Meant Azamara. I actually booked cruises with both cruise lines and was going to ask if either had charges for specialty restaurants. Also, do you have to make reservations to attend the evening shows? Mom C

I have just booked an Oceania cruise for the first time since before Covid. Do they now charge for specialty restaurants? Thanks for your help. Mom. C

The itineraries weren’t as good as AZ and O. I love Regent, but on this trip, itinerary really drives the cruise.

I am looking to book a cruise to Japan in 2025. I have narrowed my search to Oceania and Azamara. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks, Mom C

I am looking to book a cruise which does Japan in 2025. I have narrowed it down to Azamara and Oceania. Any feedback would be welcomed. Thanks for your willingness to share your experiences. Mom C

I will need a limo from the Coral Gables Hyatt Regency to the Miami cruise port on a Friday around 11:00AM. How long should that take, and could you recommend a reliable limo company? Thank you for your help. Mom C

Thank you! Question answered.😊

I know dress is country club casual, but are there any formal nights requiring cocktail dresses for women? Mom C

Thanks for the update!
