You can transfer within 30 days, I believe.

NO

This quote from the website is why I don’t wish to travel with GCT. It turned me off completely the first time I saw it. American travelers We cater exclusively to American travelers: English is the only language used during tours and presentations, and your trip is tailored to an American perspective, from experiences to accommodations to dining—which include regional specialties. I’m fine with English language, but I like to have the perspectives of people from other English speaking countries, including the Brits, the Aussies, and my own Canadians. I don’t want a trip tailored to an American perspective.

No, I haven’t. This will be only my second Ocean cruise.

Thanks to all of you who are telling me not to worry, just to come try it out. So I will.

Can anyone give me some idea of the questions? I don’t want to show up and make a fool of myself.

I don't really need it, but they let me book it, knowing that if someone needs an accessible cabin I would have to move. I doubt it will happen now, but who knows. (There are elements of an accessible bathroom that will be helpful for me however.)

No, I chose 417 for its size.

For what its worth, you'll be near me.

I'd like to just point out that the size of the ship in Europe is limited by the size of the locks. There is no such restriction in SouthEast Asia. That doesn't mean that Viking couldn't have larger cabins on European ships, but that to do so would by necessity reduce the number of passengers carried.

I really meant to say some cabins on some cruises. Actual single cabins are still not very common.

Basically everyone except Viking has some single cabins on some cruises at no or less than 100% single supplement. On most lines the standard single supplement for most cabins except for suites is 50%.

When I did it I was on a walking tour of the Abbey (with walks.com). At the end, I walked over to the entrance to the galleries right in the Abbey, paid my £5 and went up to the galleries. But it was pre-Covid so I don’t know what might have changed.

I think so. Once you come back down into the main Abbey you are free to wander. You might consider booking the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Galleries first, and then spend time in the Abbey.
