    Price dropped over 50% after final payment

    in Princess Cruises

    Posted

    Hi - Our Majestic Princess cruise dropped over 50% after final payment and our TA says Princess will not budge to refund the difference or upgrade us. This means, people can book an Owner’s Suite for the same price we paid for the cheapest Mini Suite. I am devastated to say the least and I actually don’t even want to go now. 😢

    So disappointed in Royal Caribbean

    in Royal Caribbean International

    Posted

    We have just completed a 10 day Caribbean cruise on Serenade of the Seas. Hadn't cruised in a while and we noticed a huge difference in the services on board.

    1. Our food in Reflections was always cold.

    2. You couldn't get a drink to save your soul. There was a terrible lack of servers in the bars and lounges. The only way to get a drink was to go up to the bar and then you could wait up to 20 minutes. The poor Bartenders tried their best but couldn't keep up.

    3. Hardly any deck parties. No party in the Centrum on the final night.

    4. Super Bowl party out on deck had only chips and salsa and cold hot dogs.

    5. Really focussed on getting money out of you. Constant announcements for spa/art auctions, etc.

    6. Staff not nearly as friendly as they used to be.

     

    We will try again, but I couldn't believe the difference.

    Levi Baron tour

    in Dominica

    Posted

    I booked with him for mid-Nov. This is one port that we are looking forward to the most! I think going with Levi will be excellent.

     

    We are going on the Roseau Valley Best, which is his personal favorite.

     

    Middleham Falls: The tallest waterfall on the Island. The hike to this waterfall is about 45 minutes one way, walking through part of the Island lush rain forest. For the first 20- 25 minutes you would be climbing up, which is the most difficult walk on the tour. From then it is flat and down hill until you get to the waterfall. There is a huge pool at the base of the waterfall with fresh clean water which will be tempting you to get in.

    Trafalgar Falls: (two waterfalls in the same area) 10 minutes walk one way up a few steps. The walk is not too difficult and it is the second most visited site on the Island.

    Titou Gorge: One of the most unique areas on the Island and it's also a spot where part of Pirates Of The Caribbean 2 was filmed. One can get to bathe in hot and cold water at titou gorge. To enjoy the gorge you would have to take the short swim up the cave like area. It's about 10 feet at it's deepest point, but if only about knee height when you get n the cave-Like area. There is an easy 7 minutes walk to the gorge.

    Wotten Waven Sulphur Springs: (small boiling pools) 2 minutes walk one way up a few steps.

    Depending on how long you stay at the waterfalls, we could also stop at the Botanical gardens and Morne Bruce.

     

    Hi - We just returned and did this tour with Levi - It was fantastic. The hike to Middleham falls was just the right length. It was beautiful. You do need to be fairly fit to do it.

     

    Titou Gorge was our favorite.

     

    Levi is a very good driver and a real sweetheart.

     

    We are planning to visit Dominica again and do a longer Hike with him.
