Yes regular taxis will be available but often expensive. Of course it depends where you want to go and for how long.Uber might be an alternative

Thanks, we have a late moring flight out of AMS.  15 min too early to get a transfer with Celebrity Cruise.

Are taxis available at the Port of Rotterdam?  Any recommendations? Our cruise line changed our debarkation port.....

Thanks

A thread about a specific sailing should be posted in the roll call section, not here in the general RCI section.

Thanks biker19, are you on this sailing???

Hi! I am looking for the board for this cruise. Can anyone help? We just booked today and I can't believe I am the first to post....

Thanks

We are sailing next month....(Celebrity)

How are the cruise lines handling the new testing protocol

...will we be tested  on board prior to debarking, (at whose cost ) and if we test positive what then.... I haven't been able to find any info.

Yes, I know but I can't book Walgreens yet.  Thursday 11/25 is Thanksgiving, so we need to get it 11/26.  Might as well get it on the way and keep on going.  We drive down most of the way one day early.   Walgreens will probably work for our next cruise

We aren't going till Jan 4th, flying in the 3rd so need testing Sunday the 2nd... already freaking out!!!

Has anyone booked 2 Covid tests at two different pharmacy's  just to be sure you would get results within the 48h window??? Just asking...

Hi All

Sorry if this has been answered before but I just cant find it....

Was wondering what Hotel(s) Viking Uses in Reykjavik? 

where does the ship dock???

Thanks so much

Hi

Has anyone used Jack Trout "Cuba Classic Tours" out of Havana? Our cruise has sold out all excursions. We have booked before the June Date so we are allowed to book our own tours as long as they satisfy the P2P guidelines... I think...

Would really appreciate any info on this tour or any others you may recommend.

Thanks!!!

Thank you so much for all your replies!!! We decided to book with premium tours... It is a coach tour but it picked up close to our hotel, and after I spoke with them (they had a 1-800 #) seemed to be the best fit for us Will you know how it turned​ out

Thanks again!!!

Hi All

We are staying in London before our cruise from Southampton. We are looking for a small group tour company for a day trip to Stonehenge, Does anyone have any recommendations??

We are staying near Victoria Station.

Thanks so much

Lynn

Just wondering if they still serve "high tea"? It was lovely...but it has been a while since we sailed with them.

Just wondering if anyone purchased their drink package....or how the wine situation was on board the Crown???

We will be on the Crown in July....I really hope it is not as bad as posted. Its been a while since we sailed with them. So we were looking forward to this trip...We stopped sailing NCL for similar reasons many years ago....

Well you have two options:

 

1. Stay on the ship and pre-order a taxi. You probably need to leave at 03.30 at the latest.

2. Book a room at the hotel at the airport (Clarion Hotel Arlanda Airport).

 

So as I have said to other before you, it really depends on what you think would be the most convenient for you.

 

Staying at the airport will obviously grant you allot of extra "security" meaning you don't have to worry about transport in the middle of the night and etc.

 

I can give advice and feedback but the decision is yours.

One more question if you don't mind.

Do you have a taxi service that you would recommend??

Thanks again

I think we will go for your option 1..

I e-mailed emergencyteam@celebritycruises.com and they replied that there were no issues with that departure, just to let the ship know we were leaving

Now to find a taxi company

Thanks again!!!:D

Lynn

Help!!

We dock in Stockholm a day before "official" debarkation. but we have a really early flight the debarkation morning (06:30) . Should we leave the ship early (the day before) and try to get a room close to ARN ?? anyone else had this problem???

Thanks for any information!

Lynn

Hi

Quick question. Are there still taxis available from the ships dock to Sapphire Beach?? Is there a fixed fare??

We are going next week!!!

Thanks!!

Hi, Just book this cruise and am looking for others on this board....I know you are here, just cant find you!!!:o

Thank you so much for taking the time to post!! This will be our first River Cruise

We are leaving June 1 for Paris, then to Amsterdam by train June 6th, then onto the Kara the 9th.

All reservations have been made and now it is time to sit back and read!!!

Loved your trip report for the AMS to BSL ports!!! The ship sounds GREAT!!!

We have been to Amsterdam and have been to the museums (including the Heineken :D ) So we are planning to just walk the city this time... I don't remember long lines to get tickets at the museums but the Ann Frank House line was long, however our tour guide had purchased those for us. (we went with go-ahead a few years ago)

We are planning on taking the train from the airport to Central Station, easy the last time we were there... Moevenpick is supposed to have a shuttle service from Central Station to the hotel But I have not contacted them yet. We made our own reservation at the Moevenpick several months ago , and have a really good rate.

Thanks for the posts, looking forward to read ing more!! I will post a review when we return!!!

Just a couple questions

How far was the Moevenpeck from the cruise terminal??? and

how was the wifi ????? (Sorry if someone already answered this)

Could you also send to misha227 (at) gmail (dot) com? Thank you!

Please,Please e-mail them to me too!!!! :D

I'm happy to report I just spoke with someone from Celebrity in Michael Bayley's office who called and left me a message last Friday. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and completely resolved our minor issue.

 

Michael if you are reading this, thank you and your staff for making me feel appreciated and valued! That's a large reason we keep coming back.

 

 

 

That's all part of the "Celebrity treatment" in my book.

Thank you again :)

Does anyone have a corporate physical address for Mr. Bayley? I like to wrire letters:D

That would be great if the port agent would have answered the phone!!!

So, I keep seeing this question come u and don't recall getting a definitive answer.

When going ashore - take your passport or leave it in the safe?

 

Not asking your personal habit.... what is the correct thing to do?

WIth S&S car and driver's license or other photo id you're okay to get back on ship and Carnival covers for you if there's a problem with authorities.

BUT what if I miss the ship and have to get to the next port - or break my leg and have to fly home from that port?

 

I know Carnival (or whatever line) issues the S&S card and has your passport information and have always felt that is all I need. In fact, they have said lock it up in your safe and only had them tell me to take it on an excursion when I was going to go into Canada on our Alaska cruise.

:confused:

No matter what your cruise line says...leave it on the ship!!!!! Make a copy and take it with you. My DH had his pickpocketed in Rome last week.

We had a really good private driver and she helped us file a police report.

We were able to get a temp in Florence with the help of another private driver.....ship was no help!
