Return cruise offers same identical ports. We are doing this cruise in August of 2015 on the Maasdam for that reason.

Hi

 

We will be doing Spencer Ambrose's Land and Sea tour in May next year and have to choose between the guided tour of the volcano and are unsure which to pick.

 

We are a group of 4 adults in their 30's, 2 children who will be 10 and 12 and a toddler...any suggestions on which option might be best.

Not sure what the mud bath entails, but will tell you to be prepared for a very distinct odor of hydrogen sulfide at the volcano. If anyone in your party has a breathing problem this is not the place for them. Did this tour in 1993 and can tell you it really wasn't that impressive. Hope this helps you.

Cruising out of Boston August 1,2015 would like to know what cruise and park hotel you used?

As two smokers who only book balcony cabins so we can smoke we do the following. Pack two empty jelly jars. Half fill one with water to put butts in & close cap. When the jar is full, strain water into other jar, put the butts in a zip lock bag to put in trashcan on open public deck and flush water, DO NOT FLUSH BUTTS THEY WILL CLOG THE TOILET! With this method you are sure the butts are out, much safer this way then an open ashtray. NEVER, NEVER THROW ANYTHING OFF OF A BALCONY. The only lines that still let you smoke on balcony are HAL & NCL. I was told today that Carnival no longer allows smoking on balcony. Haven't checked to see if that is true or not. I have had high and low decks, mid ship and aft and I have never smelled smoke from above below or from the side.
