I had the same question - and pre-trip jitters - and this map makes it perfectly clear.  Thanks so much!

Thanks - and enjoy your trip!

Thanks for this information!

Hi we’re sailing in the YC on the Meraviglia in a few weeks.  Was wondering if there a chef’s table experience, and also if there is a kitchen tour.  Thanks for your input!

Totally loving the review - we’re on the 8/21 to Bermuda - now even more excited to go!

Please, we have enough problems in the state, but "cursing from NJ"🤣

Oops!!! Good catch and good for a smile 

I understand that the Bahamas requires vaccinations, but they do not require testing.  To me (cursing from NJ in September) this is an extra hassle that i wish could be avoided. 

Argh - i think i was not the right temperament to book guaranteed as this driving me crazy.  We booked early July for September 11th. Seems like a lot of people have heard sooner but no word for us yet.  

I’m also assuming that this is holding up any ‘Royal up bid

Have fun!!!

Hi - thanks to everyone for your advice.  Fingers crossed!

Hi - thanks to everyone for your advice.  We’’re on the Danube Waltze

Hi - thanks for your response.  We took a viking cruise a few year ago and found that we often had the opportunity to go our own way - either skipping a tour or departing part way if we found something more interesting (always letting our tour guide know, of course).  And I don’t see that restricted travel is a condition of any of our countries (Hungary, Germany, Austria).  What makes me upset is that after all this time it seems like the experience we are getting is not what we paid and waited for.

We are scheduled to cruise next month- our third try on a voucher from a 2020 cruise. Had a chance yesterday to read their recent announcement that we are only allowed off the boat on escorted tours - independent travel is not allowed. I’m really upset - wandering on our own is a big point for us and I feel like this restriction is absolutely not what we paid for. Has anyone else experienced and/or challenged this?

We are sailing on August 14th and can't wait!

One thing has me very confused. We have the unlimited drinks special as a promo. My understanding was that the 18% gratuity was also included as part of the free promo. However, yesterday I saw in ncl's faqs that service charges will apply. Can someone advise which it is so I know what to expect?

And thanks to all who post such great reviews- it really helps!
