Review summary

This a Is an interesting and relaxing cruise itinerary. We travel with a light weight mobility scooter and we're able to take it off the ship at all ports. The tender staff is the best! The scooter is a Travel Scoot - www.travelscoot.com. We like Oceania ant hope that they look into the reduction in number of staff. The housekeeping staff is less and it is very noticeable in the Terrace Cafe.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Iceland does not have a terminal building so passengers had to line up outside. They needed seating as many passengers were older.

So nice the scooter worked out for you. More folks seem to be using them. The mobility is a huge positive.
