texasnana Posted March 12, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I was looking and saw a four day cruise in May 2010 from SD to Vancouver. 4days at sea. Just wondering if any one had done it and how they liked the cruise?:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzisme Posted March 12, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 12, 2010 we did this on the Veendam a few years back (SD to Vanc) and it was quite rocky! we have cruised around 15-16 times and have experienced 2 hurricanes but DH thought this was pretty rough! of course, you could experience something totally different. IMO go for it, as it is a cruise! and Vancouver is a wonderful city to visit...we hosted the 2010 Olympics, which went off so well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted March 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 12, 2010 We did the full repositioning cruise from Ft Lauderdale to Seattle on the Westerdam in 2008 and 2009. In 2008 when we left San Diego -- it was very rough. In 2009 when we left San Diego -- calm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty Pat Posted March 12, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I’ve cruised this route 4 times May, June, September & October and it has always been rough. Every cruise had a high percentage of 1st time cruisers “trying a short cruise to see if I like cruising”. Most of them get seasick and vow never to cruise again. I’ve always wondered who sold these 1st time cruisers on this Pacific coast route for a 1st cruise. They are one of the worst examples of a cruise. Besides the rough seas, the experience isn’t the same as a weeklong cruise both in the level of service, getting comfortable in your surroundings and getting to know your fellow passengers.

luvcruisn' Posted March 13, 2010 #5 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Many of these 4 night cruises are sold as a "package" by travel agencies. My mom and I did a package that included three nights in Las Vegas, transportation to San Diego, and then the 4 nights on the Ryndam from San Diego to Vancouver. It was a little rocky one of the days out from San Diego, but we had a wonderful time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
