Just returned from Royal Princess cruise tour Imperial Treasures. :) It was a wonderful trip. Extremely port intensive.
We booked our St Petersburg 2 day tour with a local company that supplied the Russian visas for us. This sounded like a good idea. You must have a Russian visa to get off the ship. And as long as you return to the ship each nite you are allowed off the ship.
Unfortunately I became ill half way through our second day and wanted to return early to the ship. Guess what... I was not allowed to do that. I asked if the bus driver could take us back to the ship while the tour was visiting a site. No that was not possible. So I spent the next several hours sitting on the bus until we could all return to the ship together. :mad:
I am not saying this is not a good way to go, as the visas are quite expensive. But if for any reason you feel that you may not be able to make it through the tour, think twice about doing it this way.
Upgrade--is it a good one.

You will definitely not be disappointed. We had booked D511 on the Royal and were upgraded to a mini on Aloha. We knew the people who were upgraded to D511 and went to visit their cabin to see what it was like. Compared to other Princess ships I found the Deluxe balcony to be smaller than usual. Enjoy your cruise and your new mini...:)
