We are staying at the Amsterdam Renaissance Hotel chosen because we had such a positive experience at the Renaissance Hotels in Paris and Barcelona last year and on the very positive reviews on Trip Advisor. It is on a quiet side street just a 10 minute walk from some main sites. Although the hotel is unassuming from the exterior, a major renovation was recently completed...looking forward to seeing the new lobby and room decor AND to the Elite lounge for complimentary breakfasts and snacks. A real perk of my Elite status with Marriott.

We have booked a 2 day tour of St. Petersburg with Alla Tours (based on the recommendation of our dear friends Tina and Tim) and a tour of Tallin again with Alla since they have been so good and responsive. I put together a group of 16 for St. Petersburg and a group of 8 (so far) for Tallin. Details will follow when we get to those ports. Our plans are to do the other ports on our own using either Hop-on Hop-off buses, walking from the port to the city center in those cities where the port is close by and enjoying free Walking tours when available.
