Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Hi Jill i just came across your post as I was searching AMA for the Mekong. We stayed on the Zambezi Queen in January and it was fabulous. We enjoyed every minute of it. Going out on the little boats to see the wildlife is wonderful. We could happily have sat all day long watching the herds of elephants coming down to the river to drink and play. Our only regret was that we only had two nights.
  2. Cape Town has some of the best quality tap water in the world. They are in the top 1 so I doubt using tap water for bottled water would be the issue here?
  3. I am not the OP but this is really useful for us as we will need a hotel later this year and it’s a very, very long time since I was in Miami. Thank you.
  4. I don’t think they will commit. We asked a similar question about leaving early and they said you need to ask on board as they cannot say what the port authorities will allow.
  5. People did this on our South Africa cruise this year.
  6. I read that the laundry room has been reopened today for a short time.
  7. All of the Pursuit cruises from the Xmas cruise onwards have had norovirus. The Xmas cruise, the buffet, etc was self serve from about half way through the cruise. The last cruise had the pool and spa closed for the whole cruise and I understand this had also happened on the previous cruise. There was no insistence of using sanitiser purely the captain asking for people to on a daily broadcast. We sanitised everywhere, never touched lift buttons or handrails, etc. I only saw the handrails being cleaned once; that isn’t to say it wasn’t being done more regularly. I have to say that in my opinion and before the virus got hold, I was aware that the ship wasn’t as clean as I would expect. Apologies but thought it worth giving some detail to Pursuit this year.
  8. That’s great news. I shall have to telephone to do the same. Thanks.
  9. Did you use your OBC to purchase the package? We found a package the best value for South Africa but had to wait until we were onboard to purchase the package using our OBC. I have put the enjoyments package into my basket for a future cruise along with excursions and if we could sort this now, that would be great. Incidentally, on our last cruise, they had included the $250 spa credit towards our excursions which was very useful.
  10. I had it as a special pre-order on Pursuit. There were 6 ordered that night. So clearly very popular.
  11. I’m not sure. We did have ultimate but it wasn’t mentioned and we only had the one bottle not two?
  12. I requested Hendricks which we got. We also got Fevertree tonics and ginger beer. I also had a glass of champagne delivered with the afternoon canapés. The butlers trolley had many glasses of champagne that he was delivering!
  13. I had the same thing happen on our last cruise. The TA stood firm, had recorded telephone conversations, etc with Azamara where they had checked and rechecked the price so Azamara had to back down and accept it. I think it helped that the TA is one of their biggest clients and my personal agent is very, very experienced. Glad you got it sorted.
  14. I wanted to use OBC to pay for the package so had to do it on arrival. We would still have had to queue at guest relations to sort the Wi-Fi out and the queues were huge.
