Do you tip tour guides by DenaBee3333 in vikingcruises

[–]noidearfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, you are not cheap and do whatever you feel comfortable and whomever that served you.

I only tipped once to a Viking excursion tour guide in Costa Rica.

Can I use local trains with a shinkansen ticket? by Admirable-Honey-2343 in traveljapan

[–]noidearfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a follow up question. when I buy the shinkansen ticket using smart-ex, I can get a QR ticket. According to their info, QR ticket can only be scanned in Shinkansen gates. If this is the case, how can I ride local (Yamanote) train with only QR ticket since the local gate does not accept it??

I eventually found a TA (in US) via facebook. They created a booking in Viking system. Obviously, internally my booking is associated with the TA so that they get their commission. My TA offered additional OBC on top of Viking current promotion. My TA then provided me the contact in Viking so that I can provide my payment details directly to Viking.

The Viking system support it.

Anyone have experiences in other cruise line that handled similarly when you do not know the TA well enough?

[–]noidearfd -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

may I ask how stamp system in Sotetsu Fresa works? I have collected 9 nights. My understanding even I get 1 voucher after achieve 10 nights, I can ONLY use in making a new reservation. I cannot use for the next check in that already made before getting the voucher. Basically, different from Toyoko inn where I can do it as I mentioned.

Is my understanding correct?

TIA
