mpartrid Posted August 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hello We have recently booked onto this cruise and are starting to look at excursions in the different ports, there doesn't appear to be a roll call for this cruise so we wondered who else was on the cruise and what people had planned in the different ports, whether it be Thomson excursions, local excursions or doing your own thing. Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rookery Posted August 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 25, 2017 We're doing this cruise too having watched the price bouncing up n down in typical fashion over the last few months. We usually do our own thing but would do a Thomson excursion if it's something we fancied that was easier than diy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisnian Posted August 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 26, 2017 we are also on this cruise. have booked flanders fields and Santiago compostela from Ferrol as not impressed with Ferrol when we visited before. the rest I think we will do on our own.

Jakanne1 Posted September 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 2, 2017 We are on this cruise too, booked last September. There are lots of people on f.b. going. We haven't booked any trips yet and will diy Bruges, Cobh, Dublin, Lisbon, Gib, Portimao. That just leaves Cherbourg, Ferrol and Vigo to decide on. I would like to visit the U.K. Normandy landing beach area of Arromanches and Courseulles from Cherbourg, but haven't worked out how to do that yet. An excursion to Santiago de Compestela looks good for Ferrol. I haven't checked out Vigo yet. Looking forward to this cruise and hopefully some good weather. Have stocked up on Stugeron, just in case. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpartrid Posted September 3, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Likewise, we have stocked up on sea sickness tablets just in case. We are still working out our plans but current thinking is: - Zeebrugge - bus to Bruge (http://www.cruise-express.be/en/) and then local guided walking tour Cherbourg - Not too sure, likely walk around the town, visit La Cite de la Mer Dublin - Local guided walking tour Cohb - hoping to get the first train into Cork but according to Irish Rail website it runs at 9.30 so not sure if we will get off the ship in time Ferrol - Santiago De Compostela tour, either with Thomson or local company Vigo - Not sure yet Lisbon - we have decided to book at tour, http://wehatetourismtours.com/lisbon-tours/pirates-of-the-cruise-ships/ Portimao - Walk around the town, maybe a dolphin watching tour Gibraltar - Walk around the town, Cable Car and Nature Reserve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
