My wife and I are sailing Miami to Barcelona April 2015 on Oceania Riviera. Our past experiences with ship arranged tours were marginal & too expensive for what you get. We will be happy to pay for a private guide or share with 1 or 2 other couples. We are virgins to Bermuda, Madeira & Barcelona. We have been up the rock in Gibraltor, so we would prefer a different experience, if there is one available. We are also looking to rent a flat in Barcelona for 1 week following the cruise.

Caroll & I are PH regulars but did get a personalized tour of an owners suite on Marina after our luggage was inadvertantly mis-directed and we were 'forced' to stayed on the ship. The layout is awesome and perhaps over the top, unless you are traveling with others, in which case, you can entertain as if you were at home on dry land. Given the chance and the means, I would say go for it.

thanks to all. I'm sure I'll get used to this. I will try to follow advice about posting directly to the cruise line

How do I post a review? I am having difficulty finding the spot.
