Cruises in Calgary, Canada

ABsolutely please call my friend, Mary Graves, at Cruise Planners. Her business is in Florida, but she is a cruise specialist and though I am in Alberta, she has taken care of all cruise planning for myself, my parents, my friends, for over 10 years and is wonderful. http://www.comesailawaycruises.com/ YOu can also find her in my friends list on my Facebook profile, and you can message her through FB.

Cathy Driedger did our Alaska cruise for group of 22 back in 2011. She is a cruise specialist at Expedia cruise ship centre right in S.W. Calgary . She even held a presentation for us in her office. Cathy's phone number is 877.978.SHIP (7447).

Vicky Barzey at Expedia cruise centres in chestermere is very helpful.

We use Vacationstogo.com and have always had great success and service. This is snapshot of their "90 day ticker"..sell offs. You can do a 7 day Cruise out of Vancouver or Seattle for between $650-$800 if you can do it with 2-3 weeks notice. Canadian Dollar Pricing

We have used several agencies, including Vacationstogo - BUT watch out for US $ costs, and their on-line fares do not include fees and taxes. We have had great service from this Edmonton company - fares in Canadian $$ - great service et al....ask for Jason and tell him I recommended him to you .......you will be treated well http://www.cruisevacationsinc.com/

Where are you going to be In Florida? From Miami, or fort Lauderdale, I’d recommend an Everglades airboat tour. If going to Orlando, I would recommend Kissimmee airboat tour. There are great outlet malls to be had. Miami Beach and the architecture is worth seeing. Rent a bike and cruise the boardwalk.

The drive to Key West Is great as well as seeing the sights there, taking a water taxi on the canal from Fort Laderdale to Hollywood was another great day and Kennedy Space Center is awesome! Epcot, the Magic Kingdom and surrounding area could easily use up all your days.

Check out the visitflorida.com website. There is no shortage of things to do in Florida but what you do really depends on what you enjoy doing and how much driving you want to do and how much money you want to spend. The “top” attractions place that way for a reason.

Miami Beach area is a good spot. We did several nights post cruise last year. https://www.thebetsyhotel.com/m/

Siesta Key beach! Nicest beach I’ve been too including Mexico, Belize, even Grenada. The sand is like flour and the water is soooo warm!

She is on my friends list. I have never met Mary as she is in Florida and I am in Calgary but I booked my first cruise through her in 2006 and my latest one in 2016. I never need to go elsewhere. Feel free to PM her. She will happily answer any questions you have. http://www.comesailawaycruises.com

What do you consider a lot? It’s worth shopping around and getting quotes from different places. I was with TD for a while, they kept bumping me up and wouldn’t insure my house so I moved over to Simplinsure. Cheaper rates and better coverage.

Its best that you look around. TD gave me the best rate out of the 8 companies I got a quote from.

Desjardins and TD have given me the cheapest rates!

CIBC has one. If you don't bank with CIBC I think they had a couple options where it could be purchased. https://www.cibc.com/en/personal-banking/prepaid/cibc-smart-prepaid-travel-visa-card.html

Yasmak Sultan Hotel in Istanbul is a great boutique hotel a short walk to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Lots of good restaurants in the area. Have also stayed in the InterContinental near Taksim Square...good location, but just another big chain hotel.

Currently we are staying at Hilton Bosporus and it's very good except their food although breakfast is good lots of variety. The service isn't great depends on who is serving you. At dinner we had a lovely lady who took care of us well but at breakfast we had to ask what we want to drink etc. The view is amazing we picked this hotel because it's view. It's a high end hotel where ministers etc. stay and it's not too expensive compare to other hotels around the area with this magnificent view. Stay away from The Marmara hotel in Mecidiyekoy. The service was non existence and they tried to trick us. Then try to justify. I can speak Turkish if I didn't we would have been taking for a ride. So be aware. Dedeman was ok but we only stayed there for the night so can't say anything about the service. Hope it helps.

Embassy Suites is great, and includes a huge buffet breakfast. It is a sitting room and separate bedroom...

We booked through Hot Wire to stay in Fort Lauderdale had a fantastic deal got to stay at The Westin Diplomat for the start of the cruise then after the cruise we stayed in Las Olas both fabulous

I have cruised in Europe, but not Croatia. My fav is Celebrity. Great food, beautiful ships, good itineraries, nice crowd. Generally European or Mediterranean cruises attract a middle aged or older group, since they are more expensive and usually longer than a week. The cruiseline that they call "party boats" is Carnival, and I'm not sure the label really applies anyway. Besides that, you have so many options of things to do, places to go on a ship, that there is no need to involved or bothered by any partying if you don't like it.

We have visited Dubrovnik three times, Split and Venice on Holland America and on Princesscruises. It is an easy way to see this coastline and cover a lot of ground. The really large boats can no longer visit Venice.
