    Thanks Lee!!!

     

    So after exploring the city of Vigo, did you just get a cab out to the beach?

     

    And I don't worry about the negative comments. Been around long enough to know that life's what you make of it....

     

    Yes we did the cabs are very cheap we took one from el corte englais(a very nice department store ) to the ship and it cost 4 euro .

    Hi Newbie - we are on the June 14 sailing of IOS.

     

    Please tell me all about what you enjoyed in Vigo. It's the one port that we haven't decided what to do on.

     

    Thanks! Can't wait to sail...

     

    Hi soccermom

    Vigo was my personal favourite,it has lovely beaches (even though we couldn't use them,lot's of rain)a great town with loads of shopping (kept my wife happy:D )and a spectacular cathedral if you like that sort of thing.Vigo was our last port of call and we loved ios so much they could have stopped at a public toilet and i wouldn't have minded:D .We are booked on the grand princess next year and one of our stops is Vigo so maybe no rain and i can explore a bit more.hope you have a great time and unless you are chia chonga you will :) :)

    Our boys came"shopping"with us at the ports of call but our eldest stayed on in vigo (that was alot of rain and yet was one of the best ports for me)they both used the clubs, our youngest went now and again but loved it when there,I would get back on today if i could it was a great experience that i look forward to doing again (maybe on oasis if i can talk the wife into it:rolleyes: )

    It is only a 15 min walk to the cable car station from the ship :) once at the top of the cable car station the whicker sledges are right there :) and a lot less than the ships tour.

    I've just noticed on a map of madeira that the tabbogan ride finishes half way back down to funchal,is there any public transport available to get you back to the ship and if so any idea on cost??thanks

    I would give them a wee phone call and let them know..or your TA if booked with one :D

     

    Thinking here...doesnt it ask somewhere online about any special celebrations? :confused:

     

    Our son will be celebrating his birthday on the second day of our cruise on indy,when i completed the online check-in the reservation details had his birthday listed and i don't remember telling anyone:confused: :confused: .It's worth checking online on your reservation just in case your travel agent added it.
