I don't think there are too many differences, though I haven't really looked

We've been on two Royal Caribbean cruises, on the Novigator in the med and the Oasis of the Seas in the Caribbean in January, after a week in Universal. Loved them both, great food, entertainment, things to do and ports.

Glad you enjoyed it!

We've sailed RCI once before, this Easter gone on Mariner (Singapore to Dubai) and have booked another RCI cruise for next year, October on Quantum (Beijing to Singapore)

Really looking forward to it, though it's a long way off yet!

We are on the Beijing to Singapore cruise too! Are you doing the Walls and Warriors land tour too?

We have booked our first cruise for next year on The Navigator of the Seas - we are doing a 4 night Bahamas cruise.

Any must do recommendations?

We've just comeback from our first RCI cruise - a 13 night crossing from Barcelona to Miami on Vision of the Seas.

The experience was really good and I would book RCI again without hesitation and although Vision was looking tired and clearly was ready for the dry dock it went into for 2 weeks upon our arrival in Miami on Wednesday, it didn't impact upon our enjoyment.

I was a little worried as we love DCL but it was a close 2nd to DCL and way nicer than Carnival. There is just something about DCL and it is reflected in the price!

Same cruise?!
Amazing itineraray isn't it? Can't wait to see Hong Kong, oh and Japan. In fact it's all good isn't it!

We are definitely going to see the Great Wall, and possibly the warriors too, but we haven't booked via one of the travel agents offering this tour, we've booked direct with RCI so we'll arrange our own tour

Are you booked with a TA?

I was a reluctant cruiser 3 years ago and now I absolutely love the convenience! The ports were amazing, and the weather on the whole was fantastic!

So glad you had such a great time. We are now confirmed cruisers. We are on the explorer in May and have just booked a week on Harmony for my OH significant birthday year.

We did Indy the last two summers and loved them both we did the French and Italian ports in 2017 and did French Spanish beaches this year I preferred the French Spanish beaches more but both were enjoyable. Which cruise have you booked?

If you could keep track on your planner you can pick up a dining package when they have the offers on.

Thanks for this recommendation I'm definitely going to try wonderland next year.

We are also going on Explorer next May for a week. After booking I've had some trepidation that we shall spend a week in the Bay of Biscay in May

I'm hoping that it won't be too choppy
