Rare ORV Posted January 23, 2019 #426 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I"ve been to Bergen and Boston within the past 8 or 9 months and as others said there is no shuttle necessary in Bergen if I remember right. In Boston there was a shuttle that took you to the Fanueil Hall area. Looks like a great itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Boston there was a shuttle that took you to the Fanueil Hall area. Looks like a great itinerary. Just looked at my notes from 2016 for Boston. Things may have changed, but in fall 2016 there was shuttle service that went to a surface road near Clinton and Atlantic, close to Quincy Market, which is close to Fanueil Hall. Service was once every 30 minutes; first shuttle was a half hour after our scheduled arrival time and last was a half hour before our On Board time. There were other ships in Boston that day and many different buses, each going to a particular ship. My notes say, "Walk to Fanueil Hall was about 2 minutes at most but need to know where to go." All I remember is that there was a park and a large street around there. With a little bit of bumbling around, I found both the market and the Hall. I also remember when I came back I just missed a shuttle bus marked for Oceania, so I ordered an Uber back to the Black Falcon cruise pier (don't remember cost, just that it wasn't too bad.)

the mice Posted February 20, 2019 #428 Share Posted February 20, 2019 We are scheduled to dock in Greencastle for Londonderry (Ireland). There was a post on this forum from a couple of years ago, but it isn't in the compiled list, that there was a shuttle. On the port website, Greencastle is listed as a tender port 20 miles from the city center. Realize there are few port calls here, but does anyone who might have done the circumnavigation of Ireland last year have any info? Thanks.

doctork Posted February 22, 2019 #429 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Thank you! This is a great idea for a thread, very helpful. We haven't sailed on Oceania yet, but would like to try it out. I noticed that the website and brochures mention the "free shuttles into town" but I'm pleased to find more detailed information here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airbut Posted March 5, 2019 #430 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Thank you to all those wonderful people who have provided very valuable information regarding shuttle availability in various ports. Particularly those from the 5000 and 20000 Clubs. Amazing!! Post 404 was very helpful. Can anyone please advise what happens in Stockholm? Thank you in advance.

babysteps Posted May 3, 2019 #435 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Port Stanley, Falkland Islands - the tender dock is at the foot of one of the streets in the small downtown, no shuttle necessary. There is a paid shuttle option in Port Stanley to go to the nearby (10 minute ish??) bluffside walk with plenty of penguins to watch, no reservation necessary. This info from when we were there (4 or 5 yrs ago). Sorry we didn't get off at Puerto Chacabuco, and we missed Punta Del Este for weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in Punta Del Este, but I'm afraid I don't remember if there was a shuttle there or not. However, it's not a huge place, so perhaps you don't even need any kind of transportation. I do remember walking to the place on the beach where the big "hand" come up out of the sand, but that's about all I remember! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasyGoingGuy Posted May 4, 2019 #437 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Thanks 'roothy123'. It looks to be about a mile from where I'm guessing the tender puts in to the 'hand in the sand'. Since it looks like the tender pier must be out near the tip of that peninsula any place else would be quite a walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no shuttle in Punta Del Este when we were there, and to be honest, if there was one, not sure where it would take you anyway? It's more of a walk-about resort town. Yes, it is a bit of a walk (but not hard) from the tender to the beach with the hand sculpture. The thing I remember most from this port are the big seals that were laying underneath the boardwalk! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roothy123 Posted May 5, 2019 #439 Share Posted May 5, 2019 If you're not into spending a day on the beach, here is what I did: (scroll about a third of the way down to Punta del Este photos): https://pbase.com/roothy123/south_america_cruise&page=all I probably had a basic map and idea of what I wanted to see, but it was a while ago and I don't remember. I don't even remember tendering, if that's what we did. I was on Regatta or Insignia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babysteps Posted May 7, 2019 #448 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I just realized that most of the places on our most recent cruise are not on this list, so here goes (all Mar/Apr 2019 on Marina). Some of these may so obviously *not* need shuttles that they aren't on the current list. Lima - shuttle to Marriott at Larcomar (Miraflores neighborhood) Salaverry Peru - shuttle to Trujillo (near the main historic square-several miles away); separate shuttle to port gate only. Tour operators gather at bus drop off in Trujillo to pitch you on excursions (private excursions more easily picked up at the port) Manta Ecuador - shuttle to main square (nearby, longish but do-able walk if you wished); same shuttle would drop you at port gate if requested Esmeraldas Ecuador - shuttle to nearby Playa de las Palmas (recently upgraded waterfront walk, market area, etc) - not sure if the shuttle sometimes goes further, we were there Friday of election weekend and were warned traffic would be awful. Also, we docked although our itinerary said we would tender. Puerto Limon, Costa Rica - no shuttle, excursion offerings by the local taxi cooperative right on the pier, as well as some shops in the terminal; you could walk into town on your own if you wished Santo Tomas, Guatemala - no shuttle, excursion offerings by local operatives with desks in the terminal (which also had shops); you could walk into town on your own if you wished Roatan - Oceania docks in Coxen Hole, no shuttle, extensive cruise port shops, restaurants and tour operators Harvest Caye, Belize - the ferry to the mainland was *not* operating for independent travelers the day we were there. Miami - our cruise was here for the day (*not* as an embarkation/debarkation day), there was a shuttle to Bayside Marketplace New York (Manhattan cruise terminal) - no shuttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
