On the Oceania website, look at the itinerary for a particular cruise. If you see an anchor symbol, it means it is a tender port.

It sounds as if the top suites can board tenders whenever they want, but not necessarily others until after excursions. Others have not experienced this, so maybe it’s random, and what I did read can occur. Idk Damn auto correct. SITA bus. Local transportation along the Amalfi Coast. We used it extensively when we spent time on a land trip. sofa bus does sound much nicer though!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were in Kotor in May, we also docked, but there was a Princess ship there at the same time and they tendered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vineyard View Posted August 29, 2023 Author #57 Share Posted August 29, 2023 In May we were also at Kotor….Viking docked, we were on SB and tendered, but their tender process is smooth, quick, and impressive. We tendered a lot and it removed my worries about tendering with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port authorities can do this sometimes and the captain has no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolotte Posted August 31, 2023 #62 Share Posted August 31, 2023 On the Vista in June it was awful, 2 hours wait, on the Riviera in July not a problem, well handled ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare the more ports the better Posted September 1, 2023 #63 Share Posted September 1, 2023 (edited) Recent experience post COVID on Riveria, as stated earlier, staying in a OS, just show card at the top of the stairs and walk on to tender. No tender ticket needed. Also, Oceania handles tenders fairly quickly and allows independents to fill up tenders when ships tours are departing but the tender is not full. Koror should be no problem. As long as they are using their own life boats as opposed to the local port authority, tenders operate smoothly. When you throw in local operators such as in Santorini, it becomes an issue.

Tr1v1alCru1ser Posted September 1, 2023 #64 Share Posted September 1, 2023 When we went to Kotor, we tendered in, but by the time we were ready to leave, the ship had docked there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dock Posted September 2, 2023 #66 Share Posted September 2, 2023 @the more ports the better, the Santorini Private Boat tour , did y’all stop at Nea Kameni for beach time or a hike. It’s listed on our cruise excursion. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare the more ports the better Posted September 2, 2023 #67 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Dock…. We stopped by the beach but not at the beach. You could swim to the beach or just swim around behind the catamaran which is what most of us did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
