We’re planning on renting a car. What’s the best beach to visit?  We’d like to snorkel when we visit in October. 

Loved your private beach in Moorea. Do the taxis take US$. How much to get to this beautiful beach?  Planning ahead for our fall visit. 

Anyone offering snorkeling excursions once off the ship in Papeete?  

Any fun suggestions for the day in Papeete?  We’re interested in water activities. 

Curious you are allowed to bring off personal refillable water bottles in Picton?  Do they actually check and take them from you?  

We want to visit Sapphire Beach. How’s the snorkeling?  Any problems with saragassum seaweed?  Is there shade available?  Thanks. 

How’s Mullet Bay beach for snorkeling?  Is the water normally calm?  Any problems with saragassum seaweed?  We’re hoping for a nice beach day. Thanks 

Thank you. Perfect information. Is it easy to catch a bus back to ship from Maho Beach?  

We want to take the public bus from close to cruise port to Mullet Bay beach. What is the bus fare and can we pay US $$?    We want to walk from Mullet Bay to Maho Beach and take the bus back. Has anyone done this lately?

Do they still have the local bus at Havensight?  Think it was a dollar bus that locals used but was available for visitors. We took it to the beach years ago. How much is it now and where do you catch it?  What nice beaches can we explore via this bus?  We have a long port day. 

How rough are the seas after leaving Cape Town and up to Namibia and into Cape Verde Islands in March?  Our cruise rerouted too. I don’t enjoy rough seas. 

Thanks Hank, extremely helpful

Thinking of taking local bus from cruise port in Puerto Vallarta to downtown area. We want to walk the Malecon. Where is the bus stop near the port?  Where should we get off the bus to start our Malecon walk?  How much does it cost?  Do we need pesos in coins for the bus?  

Our Princess ship arrives at 5 am In Civitavecchia, can we make a 7:45 am train?  We'll be disembarking with one bag each. Can we walk to the station from ship?  Train heads to Pisa. Thanks. 

Do you know what company Princess Cruise line uses?  It may be easier just to go with them and not deal with a taxi to find  whale company 

Can anyone recommend a good eco friendly Whale watching tour?   Is the cruise port close to the marina where the whale watching boats leave from?  

We have included service in Mexico on our Verizon plan. But not on ship. Do we iPhone in airplane mode on ship but turn it off on land?  Not sure how things work. Thanks for information

Thank you. Does ferry & train run normally on Easter Monday?

Train from Naples to Salerno. Can’t find Amalfi ferry for April 1.  Maybe too early?

We’re interested in taking a ferry from Naples near our cruise ship to Positano. This will be in early April.  Where can I get information about schedule and cost.  Would we take a train back or return via ferry?  Is this a scenic way to see the coastline?  Our ship is in port 7-7. Thanks 

Looking for a tour of Ancient Corinth Archaeological Site & Corinth Canal from Piraeus cruise port. Any suggestions?

Can you walk from cruise port to watch the cliff divers?  Is it safe walk?  Is it even worth visiting?  Better options for our day in port?

Assuming you have a smartphone, download the app. When you get your luggage, order the Uber.

What’s cost for Uber from ship to lax?

We arrive on a Saturday and our flight home departs at 12:-5 from LAX. Never used Uber before. What do I order pickup?  Do I schedule ahead or that morning?
