Creator's Key Takeaways

I recently took a 25-day cruise on the Oceana natica which holds up to 670 Passengers

the Wi-Fi on this ship was abysmal it was a consistent complaint from most of the passengers on the ship

I thought the ship was nicely appointed and very comfortable

I met some delightful people on this voyage and had a marvelous time

YouTube Video Description

Wondering what your experience will be like on the Oceania Nautica? This video will show you the embarkation process and the ship layout. It will also review the ship experience. Oceania Nautica was built in 1999 and set sail in 2000. The ship can carry 670 passengers. It has 11 decks of which the passengers use decks 3-11. There are two specialty restaurants, Toscana and Polo Grill, the no-reservation Grand Dining Room, the poolside Wave Grill and the Terrace Cafe buffet. The ship cruises to many destinations and itineraries. The cruise I took was billed as Scots, Celts and Vikings and included stops in Scotland, Faro Islands, Orkney Islands, Iceland, Greenland, Canada, Boston and Bermuda. However, once on board, I realized some passengers had booked my trip as two separate cruises: A Viking's Crossing and Bermuda Palette. Senior Travelers: As with any cruise, there were activities geared for all activity levels. There were some complaints from passengers about communications on excursions, especially when one miscommunication required passengers to stand in the pouring rain for over 30 min. However, this was an exception rather than the rule. There were excursions geared to various levels of physical activity. Solo Travelers: They had a solo traveler gathering on the first day, which allowed us to make connections immediately. During the cruise, they had two dinners hosted in the Grand Dining Room for solo travelers. Many of us continued to share meals and conversation. @seniorsolotravel Facebook Travel Forum: https://www.facebook.com/groups/443309331791413 Senior Solo Travel Website: https://www.seniorsolotravel.net/ Oceania Inside Stateroom Overview: https://youtu.be/DKxId9yjnnk Videos from this journey: Edinburgh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLZiSpBRojs St Andrew's Day Trip Excursion: https://youtu.be/U9Ho9_eeW3c Highlands Tour to Loch Ness and Glencoe: https://youtu.be/dOWrl52ex3o Orkney Islands: https://youtu.be/Pf7omHQ7wzY Faroe Islands: https://youtu.be/-OUdDlJtjAI Akureyri, Iceland: https://youtu.be/LKHMYTqaD8k Isafjordur, Iceland: https://youtu.be/j8SprJ7LaLY Reykjavik, Iceland: https://youtu.be/QoBZa6wprW8 Nuuk, Greenland: https://youtu.be/pNANqdrg9ns Corner Brook, Newfoundland, Canada: https://youtu.be/mTyMpfeFkSs St John/Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick, Canada: https://youtu.be/0UZym3bzBpE Boston Duck Boat Tour: https://youtu.be/Sv09LJADv-4 Newport, Rhode Island: https://youtu.be/WuMYw5YAjhw Bermuda: https://youtu.be/nLlEE5JqG34
