Exclusive Shoreside Events

One of the published "perks" for a world voyage with Oceania is the planned exclusive shoreside events. I say planned because they might change before — or even after — we embark upon our adventure.

On RTW2017, our events were scheduled for Hilo, Hawaii; Bora Bora, French Polynesia; Hong Kong, China; Singapore; and Seville, Spain. Due to logistics issues, we lost the event in Singapore about six months prior to embarking Insignia. In its stead, an event was added in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Of these events, we skipped two — Hilo and Hong Kong — opting instead to spend time with friends. The events in Bora Bora and Seville were really well done and we enjoyed them tremendously. The event in Dubai was a logistical nightmare IMHO and fell flat on its face.

What does Oceania have planned for us for RTW2023? I'll let the events themselves be a surprise. But I will mention that they are scheduled to take place in Buenos Aires, Argentina; Cape Town, South Africa; Dubai, United Arab Emirates; Yangon, Myanmar; and Ha Long Bay, Vietnam.

P.S. The collage of images, snipped from the RTW2023 brochure, may or may not provide hints for the events 😉Читать далее
