me and mum

[incacola]

hi there!
My mum and I have booked a last minute cruise on the viking 3 with discoveregypt.
I just have a few questiions, and wondering if anyone can help.
What are the chances of us being able to get 2 seperate rooms when we go - mum has tummy bug which means she will be up and down a lot on the night. The company say it is �200 extra each! I have read around and it seems that sometimes the boats arent full, but dont know how much to offer price wise?how much money did you bring? ease of obtaining it via ATMS?
Aside from the itinery/optional extras has anyone done anything else that is brilliant/worth doing?I am justa bit limited on research time unfortunately ( we fly monday).I have read about the clothes which was another question. Anything people really wished they had brought with them or not on the cruise?The balloon trip sounds amazing.Any tips or info would be really really good. I really want to get the most out of the trip. Iam 29, mum is 57. I cant wait! thank you.
