We would rent the car in advance to be picked up in St John. I was asking it the time frame is doable. With taking the ferry to St John, having time to explore the island and then returning on the ferry leaving enough time to get back to the ship?
What should we not miss in St John?
-
Has anyone been to these lately? I read they were damaged last fall in the storm. Wondering if they are now open to visit.
-
Correction - we arrive in St Thomas at 8 am and depart at 4pm

We will be arriving on Royal Princess. Ship docks at 7 am and departs at 4pm.
We want to take the ferry to St. Johns and rent a car. Is this doable in the time frame we have? What would you suggest we try to see on the island? Any special restaurants to suggest for lunch?

Has anyone done this itinerary in early November? Wondering what the weather was like?

We are thinking about doing the AmaDara in October. Is that a good time for the weather? What can you recommend from your trip that would be helpful?
What tours did you like best?

What do you mean APT cruise?

Carol Roy - what stateroom were you in? We had the same problem on the Emerald.

We will be doing this cruise in a month - was wondering if anyone has some advice on what excursions you found to be the best. Did you also do any of the optional excursions and what would you suggest?

I have been reading a lot of reviews on this ship - we are booked for Sept 2016. I am getting worried after reading so many negative reviews. I do not see that the Caribbean Princess will be refurbished before Sept 2016.
Any insight on this? Should we be concerned as the ship will be another year older without any upgrades/major work done.

Who are you doing the Heidiland tour with? Trying to find someone for possibly doing the same tour.

Any suggestions of what to do in Zurich? We will have 1.5 days there.
Thought about the Zurich 24 hour pass and going to Uitleberg for part of the day?
Has anyone done the Heidiland tour?

We are looking at an itinerary with the Caribbean Princess for fall 2016. My concern is that I have read some negative reviews about the condition of the ship. It does not appear that it is scheduled for refurbishment prior to Nov. 2016. We do not want to be on an older ship that is not in good shape.
I would love to get some feedback.

Thanks for the replies. I looked at the Swiss Rail website but I am now more confused. After staying in Zurich for 2 nights we would want to take the train to Lucerne, spend 2 days there and then take the train to Basel. What type of pass should we get for the 2 journeys? Also, is it better to get a 1 day pass for Zurich touring?

We will be staying 2 nights in Zurich end of October pre cruise Basel to Amsterdam. Any suggestions on what to see? Also where is there information on the train to Lucerne and Basel?
-
Thanks for the advice.

Has anyone taken the high speed train from Lyon to Paris? How long does it take, what does it cost approximately and how far in advance can you reserve?
Is it a scenic ride?

Has anyone taken the high speed train from Lyon to Paris? If so how long does it take, what is the approximate cost, is it scenic and where would I purchase a ticket (how far in advance can you reserve?

Is tipping expected in either/both countries for taxis, restaurants, tours, etc?
If so what is the going rate?
-
What do you think the cost of a taxi for two people from Sheraton on the Park to the pier would cost?
-
Do you recall how much the train ticket was and how long it took you? Was the ride scenic?
-
Great to see your good review. What was the weather like for this sailing? Will be doing it next year. What itinerary changes did they make? Did you fly out of Lyon to another airport to get back to the US?
-
We are arriving at the Sydney airport and need transportation to the Sheraton on the Park. Is the shuttle our best value or a taxi?
Also need to get to the pier from the Sheraton - it looks relatively close.
Is a taxi the best bet?
Staying in Auckland - need to get from the pier to the Heritage Hotel - looks very close - is a taxi the best bet?

What time is happy hour and where do they have it?

Hi OCruisers - did you do this tour with Princess?
We are looking at doing this with them in the fall.
Can you swim to the beach or are you tendered too far out where you snorkel?
Thanks!
