Take a look at https://www.invergordon-bustours.com/ We used this local company ..they were great..we went to Cawdor Castle, Loch Ness, a small local village and time in Inverness. It was a fantastic day.

We were on the Grand Princess trans Pacific Sydney to San Francisco last year in April. In Samoa all electricity to section 7 of the ship failed which meant all cabins in section 7 , vista lounge and all public areas at the aft of the ship had no ac , lights anything!….they were unable to fix for 5 days until a part was flown into Honolulu. Luckily there were enough free cabins for people to be moved….some were moved from suites to inside. Princess compensated every one on the ship by giving us 50% of our cruise fare as a FCC…I believe those who had to move cabins were given a higher percentage of compensation. We were in section 6 and ac worked in our area….it was just in the corridors that effected us and not being able to use facilities in the aft of the ship for 5 days. To be honest it did not affect our cruise enjoyment as we just used other areas of the ship. We were very great full for the 50% FCC and felt Princess were very generous.

Its in the pastry shop deck 15.

We were on Regal 19-31July..we had kettle and tea coffee.../milk mugs in our cabin to use...refreshed every day by steward.

Just got ogg Regal..we could choose any ice cream Sunday instead

I would recommend this company for tours in Invorgordon https://www.invergordon-bustours.com/ local and with excellent reviews excellent prices and friendly helpful staff

Our Maui trip was cancelled for our cruise in April but now seems to be available again. Whale watching

Emerald Princess has just completed a 10 day cruise in Europe. Prior to that it was in dry dock for two weeks and prior to that has been in Europe. I have just been on the last cruise in Europe which finished on 7 th Nov and had a great time Are you sure your friends were on Emerald as it has been in Europe since April?

Tallin is an easy walk. Kristiansand easy walk……great ice cream shop in the shops near the pier. Gdansk …to get here you will need to use ship shuttle…..or you can just stay in the port of Gdynia ..walk into town which has good shops and there is a pier with historic navel ships and boat tours. Copenhagen you will need the ship shuttle to get into town……..look at using Copenhagen Card if you want to do several attractions as it works out cheaper( Tivoli included in this card ) Helsinki…use ship shuttle Stockholm…will depend on where you dock…if at Nynasham use ship shuttle…..if you dock closer to Stockholm centre as we did this year on Sky you can walk takes about 45 mins or use the water taxis…when we docked close to city centre a water shuttle was to the left of the ship and it took us right into centre. Visby easy walk.

If you have the Princess Plus drinks package you can ask for real,orange juice !

No symptoms ..just tested on Saturday morning prior to going home as I have elderly relatives. We have since developed cold like symptoms and are still positive 6 days later! Just goes to show no matter how careful you are…we were very careful…never used a lift and avoided any crowded area…only used our cabin toilet…and took every precaution we could. Thinking about it not sure how we caught it …still had a fantastic time and ready to book again.

We were on this cruise and wore our masks except when eating and drinking, never used the lifts and used hand sanitiser and washed our hands constantly. Took a lateral flow test on our return on Saturday and both have tested positive! We feel we took every precaution we could and and still ended up with positive lateral flow tests and cold like symptoms…just wondering if anyone else on this cruise has also tested positive on their return. We had a great cruise and thoroughly enjoyed the facilities of the ship and the excellent weather we had…just don’t like our holiday souvenir!
