Which cruise line? That is what should be done since everyone is having these problems! It's been over 10 days, and we still cannot get it to go through. Mine was fine, took about 30 minutes; hubby's is the one not getting through.
Holland American

I have a friend who used Blackberry and I got a bid from them. Was a little high. The reason I chose Meadway was how much prompter they were in responding to my emails. My friend's family had also used them for years and highly recommended them.
Is that per person ?

Any recent up grades and sailing dates
-
Any upgrades for January cruises ?

Yes. That’s what I used, an older SE iPhone. However, that’s all you can use your iPhone for on the tour.
Thank you for the answer

What a day! We started off the day with everyone having to do a face to face customs check-in with passports in hand up in the Spinnaker Lounge. But with over 1,800 passengers to process, it was very well organized and we were only an hour late getting on the tour bus which was about 85% full!
Then our scheduled 1 1/2 hour ride turned into 2 hours each way.There were a lot of these planted trees growing a long our route which they use to make paper after letting them grow for 7 years, much like we do in the southern US with planted pine trees.
Of course, they also grow sugar cane
and pineapples.
They also raise goats
and cows! I know, who knew! 😂
In this beautiful countryside.
After 2 hours, we arrived at our destination, the Hluhluwe Game Reserve! So for the next 2 hours we drove in an open air 4x4, with between 9-10 passengers per vehicle.
As we entered the gate, we ran into a couple of female warthogs.
with the male warthog not far away!
We had to all keep our eyes peeled for wildlife as they all roam free and fend for themselves, as there are no “feeding areas” like you would see if more controlled settings.
Some just pop up out of nowhere and then disappear if the driver stops and backs up so we can get a better picture, like this fellow did when we backed up. Luckily, I took this picture as we were driving by.
These zebras were up on the hillside quite a distance from the road.
Then sometimes there’s a lone elephant hanging out by themself.
or on a hillside!
But sometime they’re just taking a break before it’s time to munch on another branch from a tree! 😂
Then there are those that just want to mosey across the road to see what’s tasty to eat on the other side!
About half the way through, we stopped on top of a small plateau and just stretched our legs and enjoyed the view. 😁
Once we started back down the hill, we saw some more elephants down in the valley.
Then there was this lizard that was crossing the road and quickly disappeared into the brush!
Then we came upon this “white” rhino. As you can see she’s not white, but our guide said she has a wide mouth which distinguishes them from other rhinos.
The reason I know it was a she, because she had a 8-9 month old calf hiding behind her.
Then we saw a bunch of water buffalos up on the hillside, with this one coming down to the water.
As we continued to head back to the entrance, we came across another rhino with her calf not far behind.
Then came the finale. We drove up near a bunch of bull elephants proving who is the strongest! fun times! 😂
In all, I took almost 300 pictures and we had a blast!! If you’re ever find yourself cruising to Richard’s Bay, we highly recommend booking this excursion!! 😁
One sad note to report, though. There was one 4x4 that broke down about half way through the tour and for reasons we don’t know why, they were left stranded there until after all of the other vehicles came back to the entrance. The only reason I know this is because our tour guide came on the bus and told us it will be about a 30 minute wait before we leave as the 10 that we’re stranded we’re on our bus, 1 of 3 buses from the Jade. Unfortunately, we got back to the ship after 9 pm when the Excursion Desk closed this evening. But I’ll bet those folks will be paying them a visit tomorrow.
Can you use your cell phone camera to take pictures on your tour?

Also, it's meals, not just dinner. Some specialty restaurants take the SDP for lunch.
Thanks
