  1. Last time that we were in tenerife my wife was struggling to walk (She had twisted her knee a couple of weeks earlier) At the check in building/ tent there were four or five crew with wheelchairs and one of them approached us and offered the wheelchair which we accepted and he pushed the chair all of the way to our cabin.🙂 I must agree the walk from the coach drop off to the ship is decent especially if you are less able.
  2. That’s a shame, can’t you book assistance at the airport? Dont know where you are flying from but at Birmingham it’s a pretty good service.
  3. From a quick google search. Unsure how recent this is but it’s exactly the menu that we had last September.
  4. And as I recall no bar. 🥲 It’s an outside seating area for the market place buffet.
  5. That’s disappointing, we always went back to the cabin after the turndown service and picked our copy up so that we could muse over the following days offerings,☹️ Hi RR hope all is well with you and yours.😉
  6. Our trip on June 3rd has dining and spa treatments but no excursions as yet.
  7. Fortunately for you paying the extra cost for a private car isn’t going to break the bank, The original poster has a 300 mile plus journey so a private car would be astronomical. Your reply hasn’t really helped the topic being discussed.🤷🏻‍♂️
  8. Included return chauffeur service A chauffeur will pick you up from home and take you to the port at Dover or Portsmouth. 2024 cruises: A private chauffeur if you live up to 75 miles of the port each way or a shared chauffeur service up to 300 miles. 2025 cruises: A private chauffeur if you live up to 75 miles of the port each way or a shared chauffeur service nationwide As a previous poster has said everything is always negotiable. Worst possible scenario is you end up paying for the few extra miles.
  9. Eastern med is always slightly more expensive than western med so it’s about right. you can do a western med cruise called “Highlights of the med” on 6 of May with a seven day stay in Majorca included for £1521 each base price,Worth a look if you haven’t done the western med before. The same trip with a 4 night stay in Majorca is £1444.
  10. Yes the land side operation does leave a lot to be desired, but they don’t seem that bothered with trying to improve it.🤷🏻‍♂️
  11. You can see why they got rid of the onboard laundromat.😳 Makes sense to turn your skidders inside out for another days wear.😂😂 Hope you enjoy your upcoming trip Jim.👍
  12. You are welcome. The daily newsletter is delivered to your room when they do the turndown service. It gives details of activities,locations,and times on the ship also restaurant and bar opening times. Other info is the port authority’s and the ships phone no. unfortunatly there are no maps but I think that reception may print them on request. Hope this helps.
  13. They did when we last did a trip on Marella (Explorer2. Last September)👍🏻
