Here is an approximation of our route - as with any travel, world events will impact our trip. Our one stop in Russia was cancelled before we made our final payment and now China has been removed. The file attached is our detailed day by day itinerary - first 2 pages - the third page contains the changes we received when Oceania removed China from our stops. We've lost China but gained more time and stops in Vietnam and two new stops in the Philippines. It's our plan to provide daily or close to daily updates and that's how you'll know exactly where we are.

Many countries require visitors to obtain a visa before visiting. Visas for our 180 day cruise have been challenging, thankfully the ship is handling most of them and has provided forms and detailed instructions - we have our photos and forms all filled out! India was different, the ship paid for our applications through https://cibtvisas.ca/ - I have used this company before and they're great. India puts the visa directly in your passport so  we had to send out passports to Toronto for processing, with a warning it could take 45-60 days! It's always a worry to have your passport in someone else's hands!  Today we're celebrating the return of our passports, with visas, one step closer to our trip of a lifetime!

Welcome to our blog! In January 2023 we begin a once in a lifetime adventure - a world cruise, on Oceania's Insignia. Visit this space regularly as we document our excellent adventure. Our plan is to use this site to keep friends and family up-to-date, post pictures, and to document our travels.
