  1. For a New Seabourn Cruiser, who has a confirmed Reservation on a future Seabourn Cruise? –

I will assist you on what to do and where to mail the coupon. I can also provide you with information on IF you can combine this “Referral Coupon” with other on-board-credit vouchers from your travel agent, American Express Platinum Card, Carnival Cruise Line Stock Owners benefits, or other such programs.

  3. We were on this trip in 2014 and there were 2 ports in Greenland that we could not get in to, Nuuk and not sure but I think the other one was Qaqortoq so if you book anything insure you can get your money back if the ship can't make it to the port.

    Thanks for the advice. But, at the present time, I cannot find any tour to book.

  4. We went to Qarqartoq in 2012 and if the other ports are similar there may not be much beyond the port/village. Having said that, it was an interesting port of call with great photo opportunities. On the other hand Iceland is fantastic for excursions beyond the immediate locale.

     

    Thanks secoma4 for the info -we are stopping at Qaqortog. Still hoping that someone has had some success with setting up or joining a shore excursion in Greenland. The other ports are Paamiut, Ilulissat, Sisimiut and Nuuk.

  5. I am looking for a cruiser who has visited GREENLAND and arranged their own one day tours/shore excursions for two to eight adults. My wife and I will be on the Quest Viking Voyage Cruise in August and will stop at five different ports in Greenland. Seabourn does not offer any shore excursions at any of these Greenland ports.

    I have been trying to find a private guide and or a private one day tour on the web, but have not had a lot of success.

    Please let me know what success you may have had on past year’s Viking cruises – name of tour company or private guide and how to contact them -- your evaluation of the tour would be helpful.

  10. It is quite entertaining to read the posted replies regarding the SB Dress Code. SB is changing the code for a reason and that reason is that there are many of us who do not own a tuxedo nor do we want to. The stuffiness of the replies posted in defense of the Formal nights smacks of a different time and place. Who cares if another passenger looks at you with a look of disbelief because you have not "dressed appropriately". Trying to control the dress of others is absurd. And to suggest that a person who questions the rules should find another cruise to sail on is just ........

    I take vacations to relax and to unwind from what I do everyday. I will be darned if I am going to be dictated to by a group of people who are totally out of touch with the reality of today. I will also be darned if I am going to have dinner in my cabin on formal nights if I do not feel like wearing formal attire of a suit.

    You are probley correct, that Seabourn is changing the formal dress requirements, because greater majorities of cruisers do not want to bring a tuxedo with them. But just like you do not like to be questioned indifferently and to be told how to dress, other people want to also express their thoughts and desires that they like to dress formally and like the idea that the Dinner Room will be formal on a few certain nights. Neither side is being absurd.

     

    I love to cruise on Seabourn (our favorite) and appreciate the opportunity to “dress up”, but I do not believe that everyone has to “dress up”. It is their choice. On Regent, they have basically given up the concept of formal dress nights. You may think that the following statement is out of touch with the reality of today, but last fall my wife and I enjoyed our first cruise on Disney - a 14 day transatlantic cruise. Normal suggested dress for dinner was elegant casual with normal casual being accepted. There were 6 different dinner sections (3 rooms with two dinner times in each room). In our section, was a family that was unwinding each night at dinner. The father was as well dressed as his family, wearing an old faded T-shirt, old cut-off shorts, and the creme-de-la-creme “old Flip Flops”. He made us feel out of place.

     

    Let us all except that others may make comments that we may not agree with.
