Eurodam - Aug 12th Baltic - Newbies

[Steve_Woolfe]

Hi
Am a first time cruiser and going on the Baltic Cruise with another couple on Aug 12th 2011.


Joined this forum to see if we could hook up with others and share experiences or concerns etc about the cruise.

As I said we are new to this type of holiday and were wondering about the policies on tips, dress code, is it easy to book excursions - although I guess they are mad expensive, can we bring drink on board (modest drinkers!!!)

If we book our own tour of St P how do we get visa etc.

A lot of questions but we are really looking forward to this first trip

Regards

Steve and Annette

Welcome to Cruise Mates

I see you've posted on the "Meet on Board" forum also so I think you'll find others you can "hook up with" over there.

You can bring all the wine, soda/pop (as we call it in Canada) and water you want but not hard liquour or beer.

Check out the "Know Before you Go" section on HAL's website, for answers to dress code, etc. www.hollandamerica.com

HAPPY CRUISING. Once you've done one cruise, I am sure you will do more.

PS - you will love the Eurodam - our favourite ship now!
