Welcome to the group!! It is going to be a fantastic trip!! How exciting it is a surprise for some!! :) :)
 
For UK Cruisers booking on 15th March. We know that you can book from Midnight, - eastern USA time, which, " normally" is five hours behind us, well in the USA,- Daylight Saving Time Starts 13 Mar 2016
When local standard time is about to reach
Sunday, 13 March 2016, 02:00:00 clocks are turned forward 1 hour to Sunday, 13 March 2016, 03:00:00 local daylight time instead

But the UK goes over March 27th, so there is just four hours between us, so those booking on 15th March will need to be up at 4 am. Gold booking will be post the UK swap to BST, so your back to 5 am!

Got it?
 
I am looking to put together a private small group tour on the 20th with Extreme Iceland, The Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon - Geysir, Gullfoss, Thingvellir and geothermal spa bathing.
I need 10 people total. The tour takes roughly 10 hours and the cost is 12500 ISK per person plus entrance fee for Blue Lagoon.
I need at least 6 more people...
Anyone interested ?


Does anyone know where to find a private horse riding tour into the lava fields of Mt. Helgafell Volcano ?
Someone also interested for this on the 19th ?
 
So who is booking what?

We have booked.

Flight to Copenhagen.
Hotel there.
Shore trips in Iceland (3).
Scotland (3).
In touch re Oslo but may just walk it as its all do close to where we dock, been there before.
The port times at the other two Norwegian ports leave me concerns, I like the idea of the railways at both not sure with early departures if there possible


I just booked our flights from Düsseldorf to Copenhagen. We are flying in the day before the cruise with SAS nonstop and are only paying 60$ each person - so a very cheap fly.
I also booked a room at the Tivoli Hotel and will visit the Tivoli Park on that day. We never been there except or daughter Denise, she was there on a disney teen portadventure on our last cruise. I am more interested in just looking around than in doing the rides.
We have been to Oslo two times before so we will decide on what to do addicted to the weather, maybe Frammuseum or Vigeland Park. I am also interesting in a guided tour of the Royal House, but I think they haven`t started with the tickets offer for the summer opening - maybe someone knows more ?
In Bergen I would like to go with the funicular and walk around the town.

All other ports I have to work on it - normally we have much more time to plan them.

Any suggestions of must seen are very welcome.
