Background My report will be from a somewhat different perspective than some others posted here. I am 84, and don’t move as quickly as I once did, and my wife cannot walk more the a few steps without her walking sticks, a wall or railing, or someone’s arm for balance. So we are “those people” some here post about who slow…
Hi…am leaving in a week for the 7 night Iceland cruise. Was wondering about dress for dining room at dinner. I think there are 2 “dressier” nights and wondering if nice pants and tops are ok? I’m in the southern US and have dresses but they are mostly sleeveless summertime dresses. It’s hard to know what to pack when it’s…
We are booked on June 15 cruise and just got an email from Tauck announcing that Vigur Island option scheduled for day 6 has been discontinued. They say "we have recently made the decision to no longer offer the shore excursion to Vigur Island by ferry due to evolving considerations regarding logistics for docking and…
I’ll try to update as this tour progresses and try to address topics raised in older posts We could have flown Delta, but surprisingly, Icelandair has a non-stop flight once a day out of RDU, our usual starting point. We have been flying mostly Business Class on long haul flights so have been spoiled with layflat seats.…
Tour description says "Tour ends at 8:00am at Keflavik International Airport. ... Allow at least 3 hours for flight check-in at airport." Would booking a flight departure at 10:40am work, or would this be too early?
For the ports of call on this Iceland trip, which ones are docked, and which ones use tenders?
We are now eighty days away from our Iceland adventure, so I decided to start a thread to generate a little discussion. We are flying Alaskan and Icelandic from San Francisco to Iceland and back. The air schedule was right on track until Alaskan switched us from mainline Alaska Airlines to their regional carrier Horizon…
We're booked on the July 6 cruise, and have been wondering what to pack for the many excursions that focus on visits to outdoor sites. It looks like highs in the mid-50's F. with breezes can be expected, so we have planned on taking wind/water proof jackets with added under layers. Do people wear jeans on these excursions,…
I understand that on the joint Tauck/Ponant cruises many passengers tend to more formal dress for dinner. We are booked on the cruise starting July 6, which is 100% Tauck. Can anyone offer information about the dinner dress seen on 100% Tauck cruises? Do many men wear jackets and/or ties for the welcome and farewell…
We’re on the trip starting July 27. Anyone have recommendations for the excursions for the day in Akureyri and the Godafoss?
