Hi just a few questions, we are a first time cruisers (well in this sence)

I know the drinks are not included in our package we are going on the OV2 Villas & Vino cruise, are there any packages I can buy to get all inclusive for drinks ?

We are a gay couple also wondered if any one else is going about these times ?

Also how much money does anyone recommend to bring with us ?

Hi welcome to Holiday Watchdog,

You will not be able to get a AI package on OV2, although they do offer some wine and drink deals sometimes, if so, you will find details in your cruise folder in the cabin.

As for money, all on-board spending and any ships tours are put on your shipboard account and settled at the end of the cruise by credit card, which you must register in the first two days. (believe you can now do this on line before you go).

For spending ashore, it will mostly be Euros which you should buy before you go, although ATM are available in most ports. I would allow 50 Euros a day each to be on the safe side if you intend to do your own thing in the stops. You can purchase small amounts on board but at a price. Doing sights by local taxi is cheaper than the ship, but not so informative.

Have a great cruise lets know how you liked it.
