Okay…thanks 😊

Thanks for the info. Have you taken a Saga cruise before?? If so, I will have a few questions for you…such as did you fly in to London? I didn’t realize about the insurance, but I prefer to get my own anyway. i moved from FL to NC last year, just didn’t update my social media accounts yet. Enjoy the weather in FL!

We just got back from Split and Dubrovnik a few months ago. We booked a private tour and we met the guide in front of Diocletian’s Palace which is an easy walk from where we docked…he took us to Klis Fortress via bus afterwards. Both were Game of Thrones location shoots, if you are interested in that. I would rather book a walking tour of Diocletian’s Palace instead of sitting on a bus. We also walked the walls of Dubrovnik. It was so beautiful and interesting as well as walking within the walls below. Again I think this would much nicer than sitting on a bus. I would book a walking tour here....we did the Game of Thrones tour here as well.

I would be interested!

I might be booking…from the States. We want to do Noway in summer 2025, so here I am trying to figure how to do that with no schedule out. I would enjoy spending a few weeks with Brits!

Can you take a picture of the menu? I’m considering booking, but have dairy allergy and don’t eat gluten.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info. If anyone has recent beach condition at Cecelia’s, let me know.

Can you rent beach chairs at Cecelia’s?? Big drop off there?

Are the fares listed here for two people or per person? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply

Does Brownes have a restaurant?

The picture with the green umbrellas….what place was this. Looked not crowded.

I took the Silvermoon many years ago….it was fantastic.

I did the Silvermoon many years ago….it was a great excursion.

I haven’t been able to read their website in English 🤷🏼‍♀️. How did you arrange your excursion?

We are staying at the Coral first week in March, but need an overnight pre-Virgin cruise on 1/23. Sheraton’s price of approximately $500 is steep considering I’ll be arriving late afternoon and leaving hotel around 1 the next day. I might end up booking the Coral unless I find a discount on the Sheraton. BTW, I just got off a back-to-back Virgin cruise out of Athens….fantastic. I can’t imagine cruising with any other cruise because of the food. I probably wouldn’t consider price-fix/tasting menus in San Juan….we are carnivores and just eat meat and fruit. Fancy stuff is lost on us because we pick everything off….just a steak or fish/chicken/pork on an empty plate. I’m looking for a place with lots of meat options 🤷🏼‍♀️. We don’t eat in Test Kitchen on Virgin because of that. Is this your first Virgin cruise??

Thanks for the info….I ended up booking the Coral for 2 nights post cruise. I would like to stay in Old San Juan pre-cruise, but not having much luck. It’s either too expensive or not great reviews. Any suggestions with that as well as any good restaurants near the Coral would be appreciated. 😊

I’m looking for a pre night hotel as well. What hotel did you end up booking??

Yes I checked with Virgin….they do not have it.

I’m asking if I will be able to buy ghee and coconut water in center of Athens? Also, will I be able to buy distilled water for my husband’s CPAP? If I can’t, I will need to pack it.

We have a lot of time after disembarkation so we hired George’s Famous Taxi Tours and are going to the Corinth Canal. He will custom whatever you want.

I spent a week and had a rental car with half the time in Furnas at the hot springs and half in the city. Loved it. I wouldn’t miss the twin lakes. Furnas is on the other side of the island from the twin lakes. I guess it depends on how much time you have and which direction you want to go. The first day of our arrival I had hired a woman taxi tour to give us a tour and history, basically the lay of the land so we would feel comfortable driving. Very informative and as I remember not too expensive. Sorry, I wish I could remember her name.

We used our $300 tab to buy espresso drinks at the coffee bar to bring to breakfast as well as some alcohol drinks. We are not heavy drinkers and we managed to erase the $300 in 5 days with a drink here and there.

If you are a foodie, this is the ship is for you. I have cruised with Azamara, Celebrity, Holland and RCCL. The food on this ship is far above my previous cruises and they absolutely accommodate food allergies. I took a short test cruise prior to booking a B2B out on Greece. I found it helpful to learn the ropes before a long Europe cruise. Their only downside to this cruise line is their app and it is necessary to use to prebook restaurants, etc.
