I have tried to book with Grimaldi for March 2008 but they are still awaiting sailing dates.
But I WILL be going then.
I thought the sailing was 34 days from London? Have I got it wrong?
It sounds as if you have been before. Any advice welcomed.
I am hoping to organise a visa, as I was told you need a ticket out as well as in and I am hoping of doing the whole of South America.
How long is your trip for?
I spoke with someone on the docks in London. He recommends that whenever the ship docks, go stand by your bike. Read a book, talk to the deck guys, whatever. Nothing will happen to it if you are there.
