uCruise Doris Visits episodes:

November 06, 2022 To excursion or not to excursion? From rain forest to beach.
Excursions can turn a cheap cruise into an expensive holiday. Even a day at the beach can require reliable transport both ways, and often a day is cut short by taxis that only wish to work half days. Each port destination has a style; some have great ports; others have nothing there so the beach is the best gig in town. They use the bus in Antigua to go to both Jolly Harbour beach and Nelson Dockyard. They take a ship-arranged day in the rain forest in St Lucia, visit Amber Bay and go into town to see an amber museum, as well as find that the moon is right for Chi Chi fishing in St Vincent. David's tech tip this week is on beating the scammers

October 30, 2022 Spooky cruise destinations. Halloween horrors & fireworks at sea.
Trick or Treat or fireworks on ships, it is the time of year for spooky stories and Halloween cakes on the ships. Stuart thinks that Boston is a spooky cruise port and with good reason. The ghost tours are normally at night, and cruisers have left, but as he joined the ship at Boston for his few days as an entertainer, they flew him in a night early. He thought of a ghost tour, but he went to Cheers and then to Joe's instead.
Jean chose New Orleans as her spooky voodoo cruise stop. On the podcast, you will hear her and comedy magician Manuel Martinez going into the cigar factory. In the film, they saw far more.

October 23, 2022 Strictly Come Dancing on P&O Britannia and pre-Christmas markets.
Strictly Come Dancing means it is nearly time for Christmas. The best way to get up close and personal with SCD is on a Strictly cruise. Jean takes a dance class with Janette in the Crystal Room.
We meet two scouse brothers; one has a standard cabin and the other has the biggest suite on the P&O Britannia. Having bunged series 1 and 2 of the Norwegian drama set in Stavanger, they talk about the village it was shot in. They then look at the pre-Christmas markets including Hamburg, Olso and Copenhagen and compare them to the sunshine of Christmas in the Caribbean. Plus, Jean has a tip about what to do in the morning before the Christmas market; in Hamburg, it has to be Wunderland!
David explains marine telephoning. The blog for this podcast is here. https://www.dorisvisits.com/cwdv-s1-e02/

October 12, 2022 'Why cruise?' Meet lecturer and actor Robert Daws and visit St Kitts.
Cruising with Doris Visits comes from two accidental cruisers. Stuart St Paul and Jean Heard took over Steve Wright's show on Radio Orwell when he moved to Radio 1. They have worked in TV and Film for fifty years and never considered cruising or themselves as cruisers, but were sent by the ITV press department and immediately asked themselves - why have we never done this? Having been sent by ITV to talk about Emmerdale on their first cruise, they have cruised ever since 2005. They now make port guide videos, and ship tours, and they explain cruising with some great tips, as well as talk to those who work onboard, and those who go for a few weeks a year to enjoy it. There is a ship for everyone.
