I saw a posting that Peru was preventing cruise ships from docking if there is any Covid cases on board. We are on a Lima to B.A. cruise  starting Nov.19 with one other stop in Peru. Anyone have any further info on this? Has anyone needed a covid test lately before boarding in Lima? I realize this is the beginning of cruising season in south america so this may be changing.

Thanks,

Karen

If you get covid on board the ships, is paxlovid available to be prescribed by the ship's doctors.

We are on an Alaska cruise out of Vancouver. Anyone have a suggestion to spend the day after we get off the ship in Vancouver?  Our return flight is at 11pm. We had planned to do princess 's hop on bus but recent reviews are really bad. Anyone use it recently? 

We found a tour to whistler  but that' the only all day tour we found. We are spending a few days precruise in Victoria and Vancouver so we hopefully will have done most touring in vancouver

Thanks

WE also planned to use the hop on/off bus to fill the day after we get off the ship. We have until 11pm to wait for our plane! The recent reviews sound horrible.

I found a day trip up to Whistler  but haven't found any other trips that we can take our luggage and get dropped at the airport. Any suggestions?

Thanks for taking the time to post a great review. we're on our first regent this fall and enjoy reading about what to look forward to 

I started a Rollcall for this cruise hoping we might find a few more! Right now there are 6 of us. I just started trying to decide what we should do. I will post under the roll call if I find small group tours,if you are interested in joining. Please let me know if you find anything besides what the boat offers.

Thanks,

Karen & Andrew

We are booked on the Mediterranean Island Mosaic from Barcelona to Rome on May 6. There isn't a roll call for the trip but I wondered if anyone had any info on tours in Palma, Mahon, Calvi, Bastia, and Portoferraio? Hope to get some advice from previous cruisers!

Thanks,

I do believe that cigars are only allowed above the Compas Rose. I could be wrong but I have been on WS cruises where if cigars are being smoked on the main decks people complain for good reason. “Cigar smoke vs sea air “ I do not complain but I would. It is very intrusive. I do believe there are sugar free jellies, not sure about desserts but think there are and there is always fruit. Don’t know about Marimite or Vegemit. Never have seen English bacon or Kippers. There is substitute sugar. Great food, variety, fresh, healthy, presented beautifully, ample and more choices than you can imagine. Great cappuccino in the Yacht Club, terrific sandwiches. Lunches and breakfasts small bufetts and menus, great salads. Very healthy and delicious healthy. Hope this helps. Of course food is subjective but that is my take. Happy Sailing

Just packing for our 2 week trip on Jan.13. Anyone know if they have Truvia (stevia) sweetener on board? We took a 25 day trip on Crystal and brought a box along but were surprised they ended up having it on board!

Thanks,

We are looking for a hotel to spend the night before and after our cruise in January close to the port. Any suggestions?

How was your cruise? We are going in May. Can you tell me how much the taxi was or did you take the boat's shuttle?

Thanks
