  1. Yep, we took the Epic from Italy in 2015. It was my husband and son's first time to Europe. It was a special trip. We enjoyed some of the same activities and my son met kids from different countries at the Teen Club.
  2. DaveKathy, are you going to write a review? Would love to hear more.
  3. I like option # 3 also but I would add at least 3 days on land before the cruise. You need time to see Rome and take the train to Florence for a day or overnight. Then, at the end of your trip, add in an extra day or two to see Barcelona..
  4. We used Guided Tours Israel this past October and also recommend them.
  5. I am following a live trip report on another board. Seas have been very choppy. Is there a time of year when seas are less choppy? What is the best ship/line to take in the Mexican Riviera? We have sailed Royal and NCL the most. I am tempted to try Princess but will it be too sleepy?
  6. Anthem and Quantum are similar ships. Alaska is great but with the Norway trip you could stay a couple days in London pre-cruise.
  7. inexperienced with Celebrity but not overall. Booked porthole and sunset verandas on the Apex to get more traditional balcony feel.
  8. Posts like these worry me. We are only going on our 2nd Celebrity cruise next year and we are taking family who have never sailed Celebrity before. I am overweight although I can certainly stand. My family members do enjoy drinking and smoking. We are nice people. Will we be judged and given nasty looks?
  9. You are off to a great start with your review. Hope you have a great time! We were on the Epic a few years ago and really enjoyed it.
  10. We also enjoyed Lona Cocina on one of your recent Florida trips. Have a great embarkation day!
  11. So glad I did this cruise before. It's one thing to drop Roatan. It's another to drop the Napali coast or the inside passage. I hope this doesn't become an industry wide trend.
  12. Definitely check out Cunard. They have cabins in different price levels
  13. Yes, did you book through NCL Air or or purchase travel insurance?
  14. Hi Tee Rick. I know there is a fee for the Craft Social Sliders. I was wondering if they were any good.
  15. We are stopping in St. Maarten in Feb. 2024 via cruise ship. We are in port from 10am-630pm. We signed up for a beach Hopping Tour with St. Maarten Presidential Tours that goes to Maho and Orient Beaches with a stop in Margot. It says tour is 5-6 hours and leaves at 10:30am. Are we cutting it too close? Have heard St. Maarten traffic is bad. Don't want to miss the ship.
  16. Gary is supportive of NCL in general because he loves Oceania. Sharon at Sea also likes NCL.
  17. Question for Jason Liberty- are you concerned that as you cutback on food quality and variety, that cruisers will switch to other forms of vacation?
  18. You can fly onto a glacier and ride a dogsled. The destination is the excitement.
  19. Can your parents walk much? Kona is a tender port but once you get off the tender, Kona is a very walkable town. Kaui- Back when we took the cruise back in 2017, NCL provided a free shuttle to a local beach in Kauai.
