Review summary

Seabourn continues to be a fabulous cruise line. They go above and beyond expectations in every way. We didn’t even feel that we paid much more than on a regular cruise by the time you add tips, drinks and service. We used the Flight Ease program which worked out very well for us. We were also able to stay an extra week in Bali without having to make separate airline reservations. I highly recommend Seabourn to anyone who is considering a luxury cruise. You will never go back to a regular cruise line.

Take a taxi out of the city area and visit the more rural areas to see the real Bali. It’s entirely different and well worth the time.

Very hot. Snorkeling on Pink Beach was great. It was a better option than seeing the dragons.

We took a ferry on our own to Magnetic Island. Tried to snorkel but conditions weren’t good. We rented a car to get around there. Not expensive and less hassle.

We snorkeled at the shipwrecks with the hand held scooters. Lots of fun.

Sydney, Australia

Beautiful city. We had a private car and tour guide arranged by Seabourn. Top notch! Really saw a lot of Sydney. Food is expensive here. Lots of shopping is available.
