  1. His price is per car so you can have several people for the one price and he will take you where ever you want to go for the 6 hours that you have hired him for. I have a list of places :)

     

    Hi,

    Could you forward to me at my e-mail address your list of places? I am afraid I want be able to get back to you. My address is adele@sircoconsultants.com.

     

    Do you know if he does tours outside of Havana>

     

    Thank you.

  2. I am searching for a trip insurance policy that will protect us on our upcoming trip to Cuba. I found a policy I like from IMG iTravelInsured SE and the price was a good one but I have read about some issues with their customer service. Has anyone out there used them. I have told myself that people with bad experiences are more likely to write reviews. Is there any one out there who had good experiences with them. Can you please answer me on my e-mail because I will never be able to navigate outside of my roll call. adele@sircoconsultants.com

    Thank you.

  3. We recently did the Freedom Eastern cruise from June 14-21. I had planned to do a full day by day novel of a review, but that's probably not going to happen now. Too busy at work. I'll instead do a brief review and post all of the cruise compasses, menus, and other assorted things that I "scanned" with my phone.

     

    Overall grade...B+. We all felt much better after day 7 than we did after the first couple of days (maybe it took a few days to relax?). I was definitely in the "what happened to the Wow" mode after day 1. More on that coming up.

     

    A little background before I get into the details. We are a family of 4 and were in adjoining balcony cabins. DW and I were in 8280, and DD20/DD17 were in 8278. No connecting door but our steward opened the balcony partition. This is our 4th Royal cruise and 5th overall. First Royal cruise was amazing on Liberty (western). Second Royal cruise on Allure (also western) was even better. We were hooked. Third Royal cruise was a 5 day Explorer Bermuda cruise out of Cape Liberty that was a little disappointing because seas were very rough first day out and last day back. That wasn't Royal's fault though and we very much enjoyed both Bermuda and the ship. We had high hopes for Freedom based on so many people saying that it's their favorite ship, and based on fond memories of our Liberty cruise.

     

    Details on specific elements of the cruise (dining, entertainment, ship condition, etc.) and a few pics to follow. I'll also post links to everything once I get it all uploaded.

    Hi Bob, Sorry but I couldn't find link to the Compasses. Would you mind sending it to me at adele@sircoconsultants.com. Thank you so much.

  4. We just booked thru go port canaveral dot com for this past Dec. I was a little worried as I had trouble finding reviews. But it went really well! We stayed at Hampton Inn near the Orlando airport. They provided transportation from the airport to the hotel, the next day from the hotel to the port, and then from the port to the airport. They use Traverlynx for their transportation. Really convenient. There was a chili's 2 doors down for dinner, and they had a free breakfast. They even provided a car seat for my son. (way to port no need, as we were in a big bus). Pricing was best I could find as well.

     

    Wish I found such a deal for our upcoming trip in Fort Lauderdale.

    Hi. I was so excited to see your post. We are going in August and planning transportation now. Did the Hampton at the Orlando airport pick you up at the airport and take you to their hotel at no charge? How much did they charge you from the Hampton at the airport to the ship. I will probably never be able to find your answer so would you mind answering me at adele@sircoconsultants.com. I hope to hear from you and thank you so much. Adele

  5. Tim, your review and pictures are most encouraging. Last year there was a lengthy thread on Russian riverboat cruising that painted a very bleak picture of the quality of Russian riverboat ships. Several of our personal friends had a very weak experience on the AMA riverboat. Your Uniworld experience appears to be in a class by itself and your excellent pictures support that impression. I was impressed and encouraged by your excellent photos of menus and food presentation. Thanks very much. Pat

    I am thinking of booking an AMA Russia river boat cruise on the Amakaterina. What ship were your firends on? Can you tell me what their problems were? You can reach me at adele@sircoconsultants.com. Thank you.
