"A place where you enjoy your sea-cation in a city on the sea with lots of panoramic views of the ocean, and will certainly have lifetime and memorable experience." - Quote about 'Cordelia Cruises in India' - Sachin Kumar Gupta
If you are searching for some information about Cordelia cruise experience, like what's inside, what you shouldn't miss and what you must remember before on-boarding the cruise. You are at the right place. For the experience, you have to be on top of the cruise in person, no photos/videos could ever give you the feelings to sail on the cruise.
Don't forget to read Part 1 of this, where I have written more about 'What's inside the Cordelia Cruise'.
What you shouldn't miss at Cordelia Cruise:
The cruise has few of its own production shows, which is not to be missed like - 'Balle Balle'.
Magician Show by Tejas.
Enjoy unforgettable, Indian Cine-magic performances to songs hand-picked from India's most iconic films.
The exotic 'Burlesque Show' set to the Bollywood music for 18+ adults only. You can also plan to purchase tickets for Twilight movie being held at 'Cordelia Academy' during the same time, if you are with kids.
Star Gazing from top or 10th Deck.
Try your luck in games in Casinos.
You can also get a lot of exclusive paid activities booked for yourself or the kids – which include fun games like Tambola.
Take some photos at entry by photographers as memories of a lifetime, which you can get at cruise later during your sail times.
What to do/remember:
EU/Universal power adapter to recharge your mobile, cam battery, etc. As Indian charging points aren't available in cabin.
Make sure to do online check-in 24-48 hours earlier for seamless experience.
Reach early at Green Gate (Colaba, Mumbai) for Check in (at least 4 hours before Cruise depart time), as It is long process due to many reasons. Enjoy the lunch too at cruise, if you are reaching early.
Even if you have taken full package, Top up your card during check-in for exclusive shows, games, food, drinks, etc, as nothing would be done in Cash/Card but via pre top-up 'Cabin Card' which is also your room key-card. Else you might need to top up your card again at Cruise (where you might feel standing in queue at time to time).
Have ample of sleep before, so you can plan your time accordingly, and enjoy the most.
Get your schedule of everyday from reception, in case you don't find it in your cabin, to enjoy the fullest.
Keep attention to periodic announcements for the activities that are ongoing and where upcoming ones will be held.
Wi-Fi facility is available on the cruise. But you can choose to disconnected with the world to have internet-free experience. Just capture the videos and photos for your memories.
Remember based on your package, where you have free entry.
Keep drinking lots of water regularly.
You will get hand soap, and shampoo only. You need to bring your own other toiletries - shower gel, shaving kit, toothpaste, and brush, etc.
Chose floor 6th or 7th for walk and photos during daytime, as you can be saved from direct sun heat at 10th or top deck, which has similar views.
There are a variety of food options available on the cruise. You can also choose, where you want to have your food. Do you want a royal restaurant or a sea view dinner, or Starlight Restaurant, all up to you and your mood.
The hospitality and the staff of the cruise is so humble and always ready to help. Everything on the cruise was well-defined and clearly pointed out at every place with directions. Trust me, if you love to travel and want to have an unique experience, I would HIGHLY recommend Cordelia cruise if you are considering this at all for any excursions available. The Empress is now cruising the West and East coast of India, both national & international trips. It is right fit for all ages and groups - whether you are a solo traveler, a romantic couple, a parent wishing for a holiday with little ones, or group travels with friends or company colleagues.
If you would like to book Cordelia Cruise, you can check out their latest plan & packages on their official website, which also have various offers at time to time.
