Hi, So I'm planning to visit Egypt end of 2025 and I find a huge difference on the prices quote by Viking vs land travel agency. I would prefer more upscale experience that's why I would choose Viking at price $8999 veranda room 11 days plus optional Jordan at $2100. Quotes from Egypt Plus Tour (with good reviews on tripadvisor) sent me quotes 12 days including Jordan around $3000! I understand their ship is only 4 nights and not as nice as Vikiing's but ships like Movenpick isn't that bad and this price also includes land tours, domestic flights, Jordan flight, transportation and hotels (which are also 5 stars). So my question is, does anyone have any experience with Viking / Egypt Plus Tours (or Memphis Tours - another popular agent) and is the quality of travel/service justfied the huge price difference? Do I really need 7 nights on Viking vs 4 nights on movenpick? What would you suggest? Yes I would like a hassle-free package all handled by a travel agency seems both companies are offering the same. Thanks in advance!

Just back from Riviera in Sept. A few additions : Kalundborg, Denmark : free shuttle to town at Torvet Zeebrugge (for Bruges), Belgium : in addition to the port shuttle that takes you to gate, Oceania also offers free shuttle to Blankenberge train station. Uber to Bruges old town cost around €50 Tilbury (for London), UK : free shuttle to Lakeside Shopping Centre. Bolt (cheaper than Uber) normal fare to London Oxford St. cost around £30-40

So do all tram stops have ticket booths? is it easy to buy one way tickets or I should get an istanbulkart? Thx

We will be embarking at Istanbul So I’ve been watching a lot of the cruise port videos and sites and still have NO clue where to enter the actual cruise terminal. I saw signs in front of the mall pointing towards the middle sea side of the mall but can any one tell me where the REAl entrance is?? I’m very concerned because we’re planning to stay the previous night at the Port Bosporus Hotel and me and husband will be pulling a few big suitcases so I hope the walk isn’t long reaching the luggage drop off area. And if we stay at Novotel hotel farther away is it not possible to walk over with luggages? Google map is still not updated and I am not able to estimate a correct walking distance, I hope somebody who has stayed in the surrounding area could let me know.
