In Havana we used the tour guide Duramis  for two days.  She tailored the tour to what we wanted to see as well as adding highlights of her own.   Friendly, informative, perfect english and very helpful.  Highly recommend her.  Contact  duramis@nauta.cu                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        In Santiago we booked through Yenia(Jenny).  She provided us with an all inclusive tour that included lunch, admissions, and a farewell drink with a lovely view.   Our tour guide was Lisandra who had perfect english and lots of information.    Wonderful day. Contact Yenia89@nauta.cu                                                                 

We used Elgin as a tour guide.  He gave us a complete island tour.  He was knowledgeable and tailored the tour to fit our needs.  Contact information elginchirino@yahoo.com

We had this problem on a previous Azamara cruise. We were directed to the wrohg port in Singapore. I am disappointed in Azamara for not correcting this. It led to an interesting encounter with a wonderful young man from Singapore, so I will always have a high opinion of Singapore because of this.

Here's what I received-

Osaka: Tempozan Wharf #3

Port Address: 11-8, Chikko 3-chome, Minato-ku, Osaka

Thank you so much. That means we can catch aan airport bus there. I have all the schedules. Karen

Thank you so much Bonnie. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Bonnie

Another question about ports Wheredoes the ship dock in Osaka . Is this the same port that the Journey used last year when its propeller was damaged.

I want to know if this is near the Tenzoan bus stop . Thanks. Karen

Hi Steve

Hi Steve

 

We visited Jakarta & Lombok earlier this year via an Indonesian Islands cruise with HAL.

Traffic in Jakarta is awful especially at the weekend so I would suggest any tour out of the city is with the ship. We had a good day visiting the Safari Park & Botanical Gardens but it was a Sunday & even with a police escort our 5 ship tour buses got back 2 hours late & we had to cut down the length of the visit to the gardens. It was a very long day. Some people took taxis into the old town with mixed reports with regard to the success of doing this.

 

In Lombok we prebooked a driver who gave us a lovely day seeing the Saski villages/Kuta beach etc. There were plenty of taxis available by the port area but again we heard mixed reports as to these. Some were aggresive and/or wanted a high fee. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend the driver we prebooked-- he was great. We shared the cost with another couple on CC.

We are going to Tokyo for three nights in March. Could you please send me information about the hotels . Thank you so much.

Hi,

 

We’ll be in incheon next march ( nautica of oceania cruises ) and we’ve set up a tour with jasmine ( mail@seoulcitytour.net ) (http://www.seoulcitytour.net )

 

She always responded quickly to any questions and emails.

 

I don’t remember which site, but I had found one recommendation of a tourist we had used this company and had given a positive review.

 

I hope this is helpful.

 

Kind regards,

We will be on the Nautica cruise on March 11th. Have you set up a tour for more than two people and where are you going. About what are they going to charge you? I am traveling with my daughter in law and would like private tours rather than ship tours. Thank you Karen
