Decorating Cruise Doors: A Complete Guide
Ideas & rules – everything you need to know about cruise ship door decorations.
If you’ve been on a cruise lately, you’ll likely have seen a variety of magnets, signs, or even full banners across stateroom doors. Cruise door decorations are a trend found on almost all family-friendly cruise lines like Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Princess, and of course Disney Cruises.
Why decorate your stateroom door + a few ideas
There are so many reasons people might choose to add a little personalization on their cabin door during a cruise vacation! Sometimes it’s as simple as quickly identifying which cabin is yours. Elaborate decorations might be used to celebrate a life event or holiday.
These are a few common reasons people participate in door decorating on a cruise ship:
It helps you to recognize your room/cabin
With the size of ships now, the chances of getting lost in finding your stateroom are pretty good! People use cruise cabin door decorations to mark their cabin and quickly identify it. Then there are those who tend to indulge too much and after an evening of breaking even on the drink package, a door magnet or small decoration will help you know when you’ve arrived — at the right cabin!
Stateroom Door decorations To celebrate a special occasion
Celebrate a birthday, anniversary, retirement, or any other special occasion with a fun door decoration on your cruise cabin. Walk through the halls of most cruise ships and you’ll see people of all ages being announced on their door!

Cruise Door Decorations to Celebrate a holiday
Christmas is a great time to take a cruise and an even better time to decorate your cabin door for the festive season! On a recent MSC Cruise on the MSC Meraviglia, we couldn’t believe the number of door decorations we saw with so many creative takes on the holidays! It was great fun!.
But don’t limit the door decorating to Christmas, we’ve seen both large and small decor for Valentines Day, easter, and especially Halloween.

You can leave messages on your cabin door
Fun + Practical, use a decorative magnet wipe board and announce to your travel mates where you’ll be. Want even more fun and live on the edge a little? Leave a dry-erase marker tied to the board and see other passengers get creative with your message board. Be warned, this is risky! 🙂

Cruise door magnets and banners.
The easiest way to add a little fun to your cruise cabin door is simply getting magnets you love. There are magnets for everything available on Amazon and Etsy, or even design your own and have them made! The ideas are endless. Additionally, this is the safest way to go when trying to adhere to cruise policies about flame-retardant materials.
Other passengers go all out with banners and foil letters that can be adhered with command strips or even double-sided magnets.

Can You Decorate Your Stateroom Door on All Cruise Lines?
While some cruise lines encourage decorating and personalizing your cabin door, others have decided to rule the practice out. Norwegian Cruise Line & Virgin Voyages explicitly prohibit door decorations (though some people still do it).
Cruise line rules about decorating cabin doors by each cruise line
Some cruise lines promote door decorating fun and sell decorations to guests, however, there are some important rules to decorating your door! Here’s a list of rules for each cruise line.
Can you decorate a cabin or stateroom door on Disney Cruise Line?
Yes, you can! Decorating a stateroom door on a Disney Cruise is a great family activity as well as a great roll call or group cruise activity!
Disney Cruise Line door decoration rules
You may not affix items to your stateroom doors using tape or any adhesive, including removable gel adhesives or command strips. Over-the-door hanging organizers are prohibited. Light bulb strings are not permitted.
The recommended door decorations for Disney Cruises are magnetic only… but it’s important to know that not all doors are magnetic. Concierge staterooms on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy have wooden doors.
Can you decorate a cabin door on Carnival Cruise Line?
Yes! you can decorate your stateroom door, but there are rules about what’s allowed and what’s not.
Carnival cruise door decoration rules
Carnival cruise line has put out the most extensive rules about decorating your cabin door. Some people may feel like these rules are too restrictive, but the fact that Carnival actually embraces the concept as well as they do, it’s no surprise there are rules.
Rules are updated on occasion and it’s good to read the Carnival website about decorating your stateroom door and stateroom here .
This is what Carnival allows, and doesn’t allow for cruise door decorations:
- All decorations must be fire retardant from the factory (not sprayed with fire retardant material after the fact).
- Only decorations on the actual door, not in the hall or on the frames & walls.
- Magnets and command strips only – no tape.
- Nothing is allowed on the balconies (which is no surprise)
- Nothing can be hung to restrict airflow or lights.
Most importantly – what I see violated sometimes, is the fact people hang string lights. This is a no-no. Not even battery-powered fairy lights are allowed.
When in doubt, Carnival Cruises sells door decorations directly, but here are a few tips on Carnival Cruise Line door decorations.
Can you decorate your cruise cabin door on Princess Cruises?
Princess is not necessarily the first cruise line that would come to mind to embrace creative door decor as the clientele trends older and there are fewer children (normally). There are no rules against decorating your cabin door on a Princess Cruise, but following the general guidelines of no adhesives and using items that are fire-rated will keep you from getting in trouble with the cruise line.
Generally speaking, most passengers on Princess Cruises, should they do a door decoration, it’s usually a simple magnet to help identify a cabin or a small magnetic celebration door sign. I’ve yet to see elaborate door decor on a Princess ship the way you might on a Disney ship.
Can you decorate your door on Royal Caribbean?
Following basically the same guidelines set out by Carnival, RCCL allows door decorations as long as they’re not hazardous or stuck to the door with tape or adhesives.
Norwegian Cruise Line door decoration rules
Stateroom stewards have been instructed to remove all decorations and place them inside the room. A real bummer, right?
The reality is, while NCL published a policy against cruise decorations in 2019, there are still plenty of people who put magnets on their doors and they go ‘unnoticed’. Much more than magnets, however, will likely get the decorations removed. Just know that it’s officially against NCL rules to decorate a door, but it seems that the cabin stewards have some discretion.
The below photo was from a Norwegian ship. So while they have rules, how they are applied or adhered to will vary. Just be prepared to have your treasures removed since it’s the official policy on NCL.
Can you decorate your cabin door on Virgin Voyages?
If you ask around about door decorating on Virgin Voyages , you’ll find that most people don’t participate and some travel agents have even said it’s against Virgin policy (we can’t find it in writing, though we’ve tried to confirm). On a couple of Virgin Voyages cruises, we saw only 2 doors that had anything on them and they were simple magnets. If in doubt, contact Virgin directly, just know it’s not a common practice with this cruise brand.

![custom made cruise door decorations](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20231225_021735-1-728x546.jpg)
Before you start decorating, it’s important to note that not all cruise lines permit cabin door décor, so be sure to check with your cruise line before you start. So, let’s get started on making your cabin door the talk of the ship!
![custom made cruise door decorations Photo of cruise ship hallway](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Depositphotos_557907946_S-e1690050943828.jpg)
Cruise Cabin Door Decoration Ideas
Whether you create your own unique door design or personalize a template, decorating your cruise cabin door lets other guests know something about you. Special occasions can feel even more special if they are shared. You may also want to include something about where you come from or your destination.
If you are cruising as a family, planning your door decorations can be an exciting pre-cruise activity. Make it a dinner-table-boardroom-type discussion where everyone can offer some input – some of the best ideas are often the simplest!
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20231225_021833-546x728.jpg)
Things to decide:
- Theme – do you want to focus on the season, a family event, the family members, or the destination? You may want to let your fellow passengers know information about which countries you have visited, how many previous cruises you have been on, or some details about yourself or your hometown.
- Overall look and feel – do you want the effect to look glam and modern, vintage, classic, chic, or trendy? Maybe it just needs to feel homey and welcoming.
- Color scheme – This is especially important for full-cabin door designs where too many bright colors on a busy design can look overwhelming.
- Do you want to include some type of communication system ? An erasable message board is a great idea for groups or families that split up during the day for activities. (Find other ideas for communicating on a cruise .)
- Do you want to use one large door covering, or would you prefer a group of small decorations you can add to during the cruise?
- Do you want the door décor to be specific to the current cruise, or will it be used again on future cruises?
- Are there any specific symbols, signs, or messages you need to include on your cabin door decorations?

10 Fun Cruise Cabin Door Ideas
Your cabin door is your own to decorate and communicate with other cruise guests as much as your want. It is like the screensaver on your phone, or the profile pic on your FB account – it conveys a message about the residents of that stateroom.
Let’s explore some fun and unique ways to decorate your cruise cabin door that will stand out and bring a smile to fellow passengers.
1. Go Retro
Popular cruise door retro themes include posters and pics featuring scenes from the iconic ‘Love Boat’ series. Retro pics from magazine covers can be customized and made into door magnets – be sure to personalize your design to ensure that it stays in place, as these can be pretty popular.
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20231225_021818-546x728.jpg)
2. Make A Grand Statement Or Announcement
Door decorations can be great opportunities to celebrate or recognize a birthday — particularly those BIG milestone birthdays.

Or, they can feature other announcements that you want to share with the world. A giant ‘Jennifer, will you marry me?’ banner covering your door when your partner returns from a day at the pool would be a unique and memorable way to propose and get noticed!
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20231225_021942-600x800.jpg)
Other big event cruise door announcements can include:
- Just Married!
- Wedding Anniversary Cruise
- New Graduate

3. Have A Favorite Movie Or Book Theme
Using a theme from a favorite book or a famous line from a movie is a great way to meet new people and make friends. A short motivational motto or words from a favorite book can be interesting. Imagine a cruise door themed to Dr. Seuss’s ‘ Oh the places you’ll go!’ .
4. Nautical Theme
Yes, we know this has been done a million times, but there are new ways to jazz up an old theme. Your cruising vacation is special family time, so if you want a pirate, mermaid, or sailor theme on your door, go right ahead. Kids love keeping things simple, and the cabin door should also have special significance for them.

5. Destinations
If you and your family are frequent travelers, use your cruise cabin door as a logbook of destinations you have visited. Add small flags of countries you have been to, and you can even add a bucket list of places you plan to see in the future.
6. Convey An Interest Or Hobby
An excellent way to meet people with the same interests is to provide clues about what you are interested in on your door. For example, families who enjoy bird watching or horseback riding may use decals of birds or horses. Sports fans may like to include logos of their favorite team.
![custom made cruise door decorations Cruise cabin door decorated with 3-D elf.](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/20231225_022111-600x800.jpg)
While all the decorations on your cruise cabin door must be made of flame-retardant materials, you can hang signs, small toys, or seasonal items like a wreath or tinsel on your door. Just ensure that it is well secured, looks neat, won’t fall off, blow around, and doesn’t cause obstruction in the passage.
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://familycruisecompanion.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Cruise-Cabin-Door-Decoration-Ideas-600x400.png)
8. Practical Cruise Door Decorations
If you are part of a team or tour group or have extended family cruising with you, you may like to include an erasable whiteboard as part of your cruise door décor. It’s a great way to communicate while you are in informal holiday mode!
9. Minimalist And Elegant
Door decorating can be fun, but it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Many passengers enjoy the anonymity of being on a cruise and don’t want to attract any attention.
At the same time, having a decal on your cruise cabin door is a good idea as it differentiates it from all the other identical doors. That makes it easier to find, and you are less likely to have other confused passengers trying the door while searching for their own cabins.
There are loads of tried-and-tested simple cruise cabin décor designs available to order online that look elegant and stylish. An inexpensive peel-and-stick porthole may be all you need to make your cruise cabin door easy to locate without being showy.

10. Seasonal Cruise Door Decorations
Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, or Halloween decorations are always on point during the relevant seasons. You may be cruising the seas in a tropical destination, but you can still have a gorgeous warm, decorated fireplace motif on your cabin door.

Practical Considerations When Decorating A Cruise Cabin Door
The first and most essential step to decorating a cruise cabin door is to figure out the best way to attach your décor. Cruise liners that do permit door decorations all have strict rules in place. These include:
- You may not damage, stain, or mark the door
- No adhesive tape or sticky putty should be used
- The materials used may not be a safety hazard
- Potential fire hazards like string lights may not be used
- The decorations must only be on the door, not the surrounding walls or doorframe
- Decorations must never include profanity or be offensive
In addition, if you are planning a large banner or poster, you need to know the size of the cabin doors. Door size can vary slightly between liners, but the width of a regular cruise cabin door is usually around 23 inches. It is slightly wider for wheelchair-accessible rooms.
Another valuable tip is never to put anything sentimental or irreplaceable on your cruise cabin door. Unfortunately, some cute generic items or cruise magnets may get removed.
An excellent way to prevent your cabin door décor finding new owners is to personalize everything as much as possible. It is far less likely that a banner that says ‘Happy Birthday, Susan’ will vanish than one that simply says ‘Happy Birthday.’
How To Attach Cruise Cabin Door Decorations
Since you cannot damage your cabin door, it is essential to carefully plan how to attach your decorations securely to the door so it doesn’t fall off and look untidy. The two most commonly used methods are:
- Magnets – Cruise cabins doors are most often metal. So magnets can be a perfect option.
- Command hooks or strip s allow you to decorate neatly and securely and are easy to remove without leaving a trace. Just remember to bring a pack along on the trip! (Make sure that your cruise line allows command strips. Here’s an example of an approved policy from Carnival .)

Do I Have To Decorate My Cruise Cabin Door?
Cabin door decorating is a fun, voluntary activity. If you don’t want to decorate your door and want to relax, unwind and not attract any attention during your cruise, there is no pressure to put anything on your door.
Some tour groups may arrange a door decorating competition as an additional activity to look forward to during the cruise. However, it is always optional; if you don’t decorate your door, you won’t be alone.
Some cruise lines do not encourage door decoration. Norwegian Cruise Lines have banned door decorating, citing it as a safety hazard. However, most cruise lines allow door decorating to a more or less extent. Royal Caribbean allows door decorating, but it should remain simple and elegant, while on Disney and Carnival cruises, you can show off your creativity.
What Is A Fish Extender?
You may come across the term ‘Fish Extender,’ especially if you are on a Disney Cruise. Essentially, it’s a gift-exchange program among Disney cruise passengers . This is not an official event sponsored by the cruise line, but it is one that is well-established and operates through internet message groups .
A practice that has evolved is that passengers leave small gifts or tokens for each other on the fish-shaped hook outside each cabin door.
Fish extenders cannot be purchased on board ; rather, you must pack one if you want to participate. They can be purchased at various sites online, or you can make your own before the cruise that fits with your door décor.
What Is The Deal With Pineapples On Cruise Cabin Doors?
While pineapples are often associated with tropical islands and a relaxed beachy lifestyle, they have taken on an entirely different meaning on some cruises. An upside-down pineapple on a cabin door may indicate that the cabin occupants are swingers.
While there is nothing wrong with including pineapples as part of an overall large design, family cruisers may be better off if they ensure that individual pineapple motifs on their cabin door cannot be flipped over as a prank by mischievous fellow passengers.
Closing Thoughts
Decorating your cabin door on a cruise can be a great way to stand out and make it easy to know which room belongs to you at a glance. Plus, planning and creating your door decor in advance can be a fun pre-cruise project. Just remember to check with your cruise line first to see the rules regarding door decorations.

Why Decorate Your Cruise Cabin Door?
Walking around the cruise ship, you’ll find many passengers who have taken the time to decorate their stateroom doors.
There are many reasons to decorate your cabin door, not the least of which makes it easier to find your room.
1. Show Your Personality
Your cruise stateroom door is the perfect canvas to express who you are. Think of it as the front porch of your temporary sea home.
You have a vast ocean to explore, but your door is your personal stamp.
Show off your interests , whether you’re a fan of tropical paradises, a Disney enthusiast, or love nautical themes. Your door decoration can be a fantastic icebreaker and give others a peek into your world.
2. Easy to Identify Your Room
![custom made cruise door decorations Cute Flamingo Stateroom Door Decoration](https://highseascruising.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Cute-Flamingo-Stateroom-Door-Decoration-300x300.jpg)
Cruise ships are so big that it’s common for passengers to get lost on board. Even the most experienced cruisers can have difficulty locating their cabin door in the long corridor of identical staterooms.
A unique door decoration makes spotting your room a breeze . Apart from being practical for you, it’s also beneficial for others in your group. You won’t be that person awkwardly trying their key card on multiple doors before finding their own.
3. Start Conversations with Other Passengers
One popular door decoration is a magnetic whiteboard .
Attaching a magnetic whiteboard to your stateroom door is a great way to leave messages for other passengers. You can write words of wisdom, inspirational quotes , or fun jokes for fellow cruisers to read and enjoy.
A whiteboard is a great way to communicate with your travel companions while traveling in a large group. You could leave a note letting your friends and family know where they can find you or when you will return to your cabin.
4. Celebrate A Special Occasion
Cruise ships are celebration-friendly zones, and what better way to honor a special occasion than with a well-adorned door? Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or graduation , your door can reflect the joy and significance of the milestone.
Plus, other guests and crew will join in the festivities by offering their well wishes as they pass by.
4. Fun for the Kids
For little sailors, a decorated door is like a treasure map’s ‘X’ marking the spot. It’s a beacon of excitement and a signal that fun lies behind the door . It can feature their favorite characters, colors, or themes.
With every return to the room, their decorated door reminds them that this trip is an adventure made just for them.
Before your cruise, having your kids create their own door decorations is a great idea. Getting your kids to design cabin door decorations can keep them occupied for hours or days and excite them about their upcoming cruise vacation.
5. Send a Secret Message
![custom made cruise door decorations Pineapple on a cruise ship door](https://highseascruising.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Pineapple-on-a-cruise-ship-door.jpg)
Sometimes, your door decor can be more than just decoration; it can carry a secret message . Maybe it’s an inside joke among friends or the secret upside-down pineapple . The door becomes a conversation starter, a mystery for others to ponder, and a fun way for you to communicate a playful or romantic gesture.
Does Every Cruise Line Let You Decorate Your Cabin Door?

- You are welcome to place magnetic signs on your stateroom door. Please note that Concierge staterooms on the Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy have wooden doors.

Royal Caribbean’s guest code of conduct states, “Inappropriate or abusive behavior is not permitted. This includes…placing materials (including signs, banners, decorations, etc.) anywhere on the exterior of the ship, placing materials anywhere on the interior of the ship (including stateroom doors, along corridors, etc.) without the express permission of ship management or which may be deemed by ship management as inappropriate …”
Celebrity Cruises

Celebrity Cruises guest code of conduct states , “Inappropriate or abusive behavior is not permitted. This includes…placing signs, banners, decorations, or other materials anywhere on the exterior of the ship; placing materials on stateroom doors, along corridors, or anywhere else on the interior of the ship without the express permission of ship management…”
Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises, and Holland America Line
Princess Cruises, MSC Cruises, and Holland America Line don’t provide specific rules for door decorating. While door decorations are allowed on these cruise lines, they’re not as common as on other cruise operators.
Norwegian Cruise Line Door Decorating Rules
In August 2019, Norwegian Cruise Line updated their policy prohibiting cruise door decorations of any kind.
The announcement stated, “As per safety requirements, stateroom door decorations are strictly prohibited. Your stateroom steward has been instructed to remove and place all decorations inside the room. Thank you for your understanding and compliance with this safety policy.”
The cruise line cited fire safety concerns as the reason for the decision. Cabin stewards are instructed to remove all decorations and place them inside the room.
Tips for Decorating Your Cruise Cabin Door
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://highseascruising.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Mini-Mouse-Cruise-Ship-Cabin-Door-Decoration.jpg)
Here are some general tips for decorating your cabin door:
- Never decorate the door frame, wall, railings, or light fixtures. Only stick door decorations on the stateroom door itself.
- Only attach decorations using magnets or command strips to avoid damaging the door. Avoid tape and adhesives of all types.
- Only use decorations made of flame-retardant materials.
- Cruise lines DO NOT allow string lights on your door or in the hallway.
How to Attach Cruise Door Decorations
![custom made cruise door decorations Fun Cruise Ship Door Decoration](https://highseascruising.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Fun-Cruise-Ship-Door-Decoration.jpg)
Attaching cruise door decorations requires secure and non-damaging methods to the door.
Most cruise ship doors are made of metal, making magnets the perfect way to attach decorations. You can use magnetic strips or hooks to hang lightweight items. Ensure the magnets are strong enough to hold your decorations securely.
Sometimes, the doors are covered with a non-metallic finish, so you need stronger magnets.
Avoid using glue, tape, or other adhesives which can damage the door.
Editor’s Tip
If you’re on a Disney cruise, it’s essential to remember that the Concierge staterooms have a wooden veneer. The extra-thick surface requires extra-strong neodymium magnets to attach your decorations.

1. Personalized Door Signage
2. wreaths and garlands, 3. themed door decor, 4. interactive elements, 5. diy magnets and clings:, 6. repurposed materials, 7. group projects and themes.
As you step aboard a cruise ship, you're greeted by a world of adventure and luxury. But amidst the grandeur of the vessel, the stateroom coridoors can be a little dull and lacking personality. But don't worry - that can be easily fixed with some fabulous diy cruise door decorations! Consider the stateroom door as a blank canvas just waiting for your personal touch. Elevating this space with DIY decorations not only adds a touch of fun, or marks a special occasion but also makes your cabin stand out in the sea of doors lining the corridors. As a first-time cruiser many years ago I had no idea that cabin door decorations were even a thing on cruise ship holidays but now I think they are such a fun way to add a personal touch to your cruise vacation.
In this guide, we'll explore a treasure trove of DIY cruise cabin door decoration ideas that are easy, fun, and guaranteed to make a splash.
First up would be to check whether cruise cabin door decorations are allowed on the ship you are travelling on. Most cruise lines do allow them but some don't for safety reasons so make sure that you check before you travel. You will also want to make sure that any decorations you use don't damage the door or paintwork. Consider using magnetic decorations or command strips so that when your stateroom door decorations are removed, the doors are back to normal. It is a good idea to check the cruise line rules and make sure also that any decorations are made from fire retardant materials and that you are following guidelines they provide for cruise decorations and cabin door decorating.
You will also want to make sure that your cabin number is still visible. You might get into trouble if you obscure your stateroom number with your cruise ship door decorations and also make it difficult for your cabin to be found by friends or stateroom stewards.
Make a statement with a personalized door sign that reflects your personality and sets your cabin apart. Get crafty with paint, markers, or vinyl decals to create a custom design featuring your name, a witty slogan, or even a fun cruise-themed pun. Incorporate elements like anchors, seashells, or palm trees to add a nautical touch to your signage and showcase your creativity to fellow passengers. You could also get a personalised door sign made before you travel from somewhere such as Etsy, especially if you are in concierge staterooms where you will want the decor to remain classy!
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://wemadethislife.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Screenshot-2024-03-21-at-13.05.02.png)
Adorn your cabin door with festive wreaths or garlands to welcome guests and add a touch of seasonal charm to your surroundings. Get inspired by the destination or time of year and craft DIY decorations using materials like seashells, faux flowers, or colorful ribbon. Whether it's a tropical-inspired wreath for a Caribbean cruise or a winter wonderland garland for a holiday voyage, let your creativity shine as you deck out your door in style. We went on a Christmas cruise this year and I loved seeing all the Christmas decorations on doors and it really helped me feel festive although we were in the Caribbean! This must also be the easiest way to decorate your stateroom door too.
Decorating your cabin door with themed decor inspired by each port of call is a great way to get into the spirit of your cruise itinerary. Whether you're sailing to exotic locales or historic cities, let the destination influence your DIY creations. Consider crafting mini paper lanterns for an Asian-themed cruise or adorning your door with mini flags representing the countries you'll visit on your voyage. Themed door decor not only adds visual interest but also sparks conversation and excitement among fellow passengers. It is especially fun on family-friendly cruise lines as the children will love seeing all the different themes and colours.
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://wemadethislife.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/ff966967979dbfa24f51fc82cbfb3d6a.jpg)
Take your cabin door decorations to the next level with interactive elements that engage and delight passersby. Install a small chalkboard or whiteboard on your door and encourage fellow cruisers to leave messages, doodles, or well wishes throughout the voyage. If you are travelling on a large group cruise this can be a great way to leave messages for each other throughout the trip!
Add a pop of personality to your cabin door with DIY magnets or clings featuring quirky designs, travel-themed motifs, or favorite quotes. Get crafty with printable magnet sheets or adhesive vinyl to create custom decorations that are easy to apply and remove without leaving any residue behind. From cute animal magnets to retro travel posters, let your imagination run wild as you customize your cabin door. I love these cute disney cruise door magnets which would be perfect for a disney dream or disney fantasy fan. You could also have a custom magnetic sign made. Another idea would be to decorate the door with simple magnets from each destination that you visit on the cruise. Just make sure that the cabin doors on your cruise are metallic and not wooden doors! If you don't have magnetic doors don't worry, you could always use removable gel adhesives or clings which will have a similar effect.
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://wemadethislife.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/i-had-no-idea-people-do-this-to-their-rooms-on-disney-v0-uis6xalyaj1b1.webp)
Embrace sustainability by incorporating repurposed materials into your DIY cabin door decorations. Upcycle old CDs into dazzling sun catchers or transform empty soda cans into whimsical wind chimes that add movement and sound to your door decor. Not only are repurposed decorations eco-friendly, and will save you money in local craft stores but they also add a one-of-a-kind charm to your cabin door that sets it apart from the rest.
Foster a sense of camaraderie among fellow cruisers by organizing group DIY projects or coordinating themed door decorations with neighboring cabins. Whether it's a family reunion cruise, a bachelorette party at sea, or a gathering of like-minded travelers, collaborating on door decorations creates a sense of community and camaraderie that enhances the cruise experience for everyone involved. You could have a decorating competititon and have fellow passengers vote for the best decorated door!
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://wemadethislife.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/9785a8de4166ee8d5909c2e89ace2a07.jpg)

From personalized signage to themed decor and interactive elements, there are countless ways to make your cabin door stand out and set your voyage apart.

Rules And Policies For Door Decorations

Disney Cruise Decorations Policies
Disney Cruise Line encourages passengers to place cruise door decor on their stateroom doors, but they have a few guidelines:
They will also allow a fish extender, a hanging fish that is like an add-on to your mailbox next to your door. In other words, it is a fish mailbox. An extender is a place your friends and family can leave presents for you.
Do’s and Don’ts
- Do : Use magnets to hang your decorations.
- Don’t : Use adhesives, over-the-door hanging organizers, or any item that may scratch or damage the door.
Carnival Cruise Door Decorations Policies
Carnival Cruise Line allows passengers to decorate their doors, but they recently changed their policy to say: “ For the safety of all guests and crew, any decorations not made of fire retardant material or deemed flammable will be removed, and no compensation will be provided.”
The policy goes further to state that you cannot make flame-retardant cruise door decorations with a spray. It has to be purchased with the flame-resistant product already on the decoration. With this in mind, I only found one item that meets these requirements.
- Do : Use magnets for your decorations.
- Don’t : Use tape, stickers, or anything that may damage the door or leave a residue. Decorations also must not be a fire hazard.
Princess Cruise Ship Door Decorations Policies
Princess Cruise Line has certain restrictions regarding cabin door decorations:

- Do : There are no Do’s
- Don’t : Do not use any cruise door decorations
Celebrity Cruise Door Decorations Policies
Celebrity Cruises does allow door decorations but under certain restrictions:

Remember, the enjoyment of your cruise is paramount, and following these policies ensures smooth sailing for everyone on board.
Do People Really Decorate Their Cruise Ship Doors?
If you’re a first-time cruiser, you might be wondering if this cruise door decoration business is as widespread as we make it sound. The answer is a resounding yes! But why do they decorate? Well, let’s look at some reasons.
A Unique Tradition
Decorating cruise cabin doors is a beloved tradition among many seasoned cruisers. It’s a unique way of adding a touch of home to the ship, and it turns the experience of navigating the hallway into an art stroll. For frequent cruisers, it’s one of the fun aspects they look forward to, and for newcomers, it quickly becomes a delightful discovery.
Community Building
Door decorating often serves as an ice breaker, opening opportunities for interaction among passengers. Seeing a decorated door often piques curiosity, leading to conversations, friendships, and even friendly door decoration competitions!
Celebration of Special Occasions
You’ll often notice door decorations increasing when there’s a celebration on board. From birthdays to anniversaries to honeymoons, decorations allow passengers to share their joy with others and make their special day stand out.
So, whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned sailor, why not jump into this fun tradition and add a dash of personality to your cabin door? With your Cruise Door Decorations, you’ll not only create memorable experiences but also a unique identity that sets you apart on your sea voyage.
Cruise Door Decorating Ideas
Now that you’re aware of the policies for different cruise lines, it’s time to let your creative juices flow and explore some exciting cruise door decoration ideas!
Themed Magnets
Themed magnets are an easy and quick way to decorate your cruise cabin door. If you’re on a Disney cruise, for example, you could consider Disney character-themed magnets. Or perhaps you’re on a holiday-themed cruise – Christmas magnets would be a great fit!
Personalized Signs
Creating a personalized sign that features your family name or a fun message can add a touch of uniqueness to your door. It’s a great conversation starter too!
Celebratory Banners
Are you celebrating a special occasion during your cruise, like a birthday, anniversary, or honeymoon? A celebratory banner could be the perfect touch to make your cruise door decorations truly special.
Travel Adventure Map
A fun idea for frequent cruisers is to put up a travel adventure map that marks all the destinations you’ve visited. This can be a magnetic map or a decal that you add to each cruise.
Light-Up Decorations
If permitted by your cruise line, light-up decorations can make your door stand out in the cabin hallway. Consider string lights in fun shapes or perhaps even a light-up wreath for a holiday cruise.
Interactive Decorations
Consider having an element of interaction in your decorations, such as a dry-erase board. Not only can you leave messages for your family, but you might also get fun notes from your fellow cruisers!
Remember, your cruise door is a blank canvas, ready to be filled with your personality and creativity. No matter which decorations you choose, the most important thing is to have fun with it! After all, you’re on a cruise – it’s all about the joy of the journey.
What does a pineapple on a cruise ship door mean? You may be in for a surprise because pineapples are swinger cruise door decorations signify you are a swinger. In addition, an upside-down pineapple says you want to meet fellow cruisers who are of like mind.

Cruise Door Decorations: 125 Ideas
Find this again easily by pinning it!
And 5 reasons that decorating your cruise room door is good to do.
I just returned from another cruise and as usual, enjoyed looking at all of the cruise door decorations. It is always fun to see how people decorate their cabin room doors. You can tell that some people plan ahead and prepare banners and decorations prior to their cruise departure. Others realize the benefit of decorating their cabin room door while on board and throw something together with whatever they can get their hands on.
In this post I am going to share photographs of 125 decorated cruise cabin doors from my recent trip and five reasons it is a good idea to do it. AND – at the bottom of this post, I’ve linked up cruise door decorations you can buy on Amazon, making is super easy for you. I am an Amazon affiliate, meaning that I may make a small commission for a purchase you make, but that doesn’t change the price you pay at all.
5 reasons to decorate your cruise room door
- It is sometimes hard to find your room when you are walking down LONG hallways where every door looks the same. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve passed my room. Having a cruise door decoration makes it easy to spot your room.
- If you are with a group, having a cruise door decoration makes it easy to find and connect with others in your party because you’ll recognize each other’s decorations, which often include names.
- It is Fun and Festive!
- It is a place to share something that you are celebrating (birthdays, anniversaries, graduations) with other guests.
- Incorporating a memo board into your cruise door decoration allows members of a larger group to leave notes for each other. Most cruise ships now have social media plans that can be purchased and used for texting, but this can work for those that don’t.
There are 125 photos shown below. As you reach the bottom, you’ll notice that many people also simply tie something onto the their “mail slot” right next to their door. I wanted to share a sampling of these too in my collection of cruise door decorations.

Wipe off boards
It is so helpful to have wipe off boards when you’re cruising with a group.
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://i0.wp.com/myinspirationcorner.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/CruiseDoor1s-e1552857793246-768x1024.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&ssl=1)
I had to include this last one because I just stared at it trying to figure out what it was.
As you plan your cruise door decorations, please see your cruise line guidelines for adhering/hanging things in your room to avoid any charges for damage. Keep in mind that the doors are magnets, so magnets can hold your decorations up. While there are stated rules about what can be used, I see everything – scotch tape, duct tape (don’t do this one!), magnets, plastic temporary hooks, etc.

Door decorations on cruises: How to get creative in your cabin corridor
![custom made cruise door decorations Megan duBois](https://ils.development.thepointsguy.com/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net%2Fus%2Foriginals%2F2023%2F01%2FIMG_3075-scaled.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
You've likely walked down the endless cabin corridors on a cruise ship only to find that every door looks exactly the same. While it can be challenging to remember your room number (I'm one of those people who's lost for the first few days of a cruise), one way to remember which room is yours is by decorating your door.
If you've ever sailed on Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean or Carnival Cruise Line, you might have even passed some cruise door decorations like magnets, signs and small banners and thought about doing the same on your next cruise. It's a great idea since decorations are an easy way to know which room is yours, plus it adds a little pizzazz to the vibe in the hallways.

Which lines allow cruise door decorations?
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/20230722_DCL-door-decorations-DVC-member-magnet-Credit_-Megan-duBois.jpg?width=3840)
Not all cruise lines allow door decorations. For the lines that do, here are their basic decorating rules.
Carnival Cruise Line
Carnival Cruise Line allows door decorations as long as they're made from fire-retardant materials. Decorations can only be placed on the cabin door and not on the adjacent hallway walls. Magnets or command strips are acceptable ways to hang decorations, but tape and glue are not. String lights are also not allowed.
I love going with a themed door when I'm sailing with Carnival. I try to think about what upcoming holidays are close to my sailing or where the cruise is sailing to. For example, if the cruise is heading to Mexico, I might try to find some taco and margarita magnets to put on my door to bring a bit of fun flair to the hallway.
Royal Caribbean
Royal Caribbean permits guests to decorate their cabin doors, but you should ensure that all decorations stay on the doors and not stray to a nearby wall. Decorations should not destroy the door in any way. If you want to decorate your door while on a Royal Caribbean cruise, simple magnets are best.
I try to find decorations that fit the lively party vibe of Royal Caribbean ships. Party banners that can be hung with magnets are always a hit. I also love finding fringe curtains and cutting them to the size of my door to add a little sparkle and shine to my cabin entry.
Disney Cruise Line
Disney Cruise Line passengers can decorate their doors but cannot use adhesive to affix the decorations. Otherwise, Disney is fairly open to all types of door decorations. Decorative magnets or hanging signs with magnetic hooks are a popular choice.
Unfortunately, Concierge rooms on Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy have wooden doors, so magnets will not stick. If you've booked one of these rooms, you'll be limited as to how you can decorate.
Many Disney Cruise Line decorations take their inspiration from the huge collection of Disney characters and movies. In the past, I've seen everything from The Muppets and "Star Wars" characters to Mickey Mouse and Pixar decorations on doors.
A particularly Disney trend is to attach a magnetic pin board to your door. Fellow cruisers will pick up one of your pins and leave behind one of their own. I've gotten some really fun pins from international parks this way. On holiday cruises, generous travelers will even attach small gift bags to their doors and passersby can help themselves to a holiday treat.
Princess Cruises
Princess Cruises allows door decorations, and doors are often decorated for celebrations like birthdays, anniversaries and graduations. Like all the other lines, Princess Cruises prohibits decorations that might damage the door, so the use of adhesives to stick decorations to the door is a no-go here.
Princess leans into its connection with "The Love Boat," so you might want to find decoration inspiration from the 1970s sitcom. Print out pictures of characters, the ship and the logo, then laminate and stick a magnet to each piece and you're set to sail.
Holland America
Holland America also allows guests to decorate their doors but offers no rules about the size or placement of the decorations. The brand does ask its guests not to display any inappropriate decorations.
The best decorations for a cruise with Holland America are themed around the cruising lifestyle, with magnets that show off your favorite cocktail, trivia champion status or any big milestone celebrations you'll be having while on board.
MSC Cruises
MSC Cruises does allow door decorations as long as they are family-friendly. If I had an upcoming sailing on MSC, I would find some decorations that showcased any celebrations like birthdays or anniversaries I might be celebrating or some cute cruise magnets or banners.
Celebrity Cruises
Decorating cabin doors is less common on Celebrity Cruises than its sister company, Royal Caribbean, but the cruise line does still allow decorations. One thing to keep in mind if you're decorating your cabin door on Celebrity is that nothing should damage the door in any way.
If you want to decorate with something that's on theme for a Celebrity cruise, consider decorating with martini magnets, which are right in line with the brand's iconic Martini Bar.
Which cruise lines do not allow door decorations?
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/Cruise-Ship-Cabin-Doors_grandriver.jpg?width=3840)
Norwegian Cruise Line
Leave your cruise door decorations at home if you're sailing on Norwegian Cruise Line , as it has banned door decorations on all ships. The line cites the safety of guests and crew because many cruise door decorations can be a fire hazard.
Virgin Voyages
According to the Virgin Voyages cabin FAQ, "We think our lady ships look fabulous as they are, and door decorations inevitably lead to unsightly damage." So, no, you cannot use cruise door decorations on any of the ships in the Virgin Voyages fleet.
Which types of cruise door decorations are best?
To ensure you comply with the majority of the cruise line's door decoration policies, try to find decorations that are either magnetic or can be hung with magnetic hooks. None of the decorations should leave a residue on the door. The best decorations are easy to pack, lightweight and won't get in the way of your room steward as they enter your cabin.
Which types of cruise door decorations should you leave at home?
Leave string lights, crepe paper, garlands and cumbersome decorations at home. Cruise door decorations that might get in the way of your room steward or other guests should also be left behind. Do not pack any decorations that are so large they extend beyond the door or need to be attached to the hallway panels. Most cruise lines only allow decorations on the actual door of your cabin.
What should you keep in mind when packing decorations?
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2024/07/20230722_Room-decorations-on-the-Disney-Wish-Megan-duBois.jpg?width=3840)
Think about space when picking and packing your cruise door decorations. I love bringing magnets that can lie flat in my suitcase but look great on my cabin door. If you're flying to your cruise embarkation port, you'll need to think about size and weight. You don't want heavy decorations that would weigh down your bag. For example, big wooden signs or pinboards that could be held up by magnets might look cute on your door, but they can also weigh down your suitcase.
If you want to decorate your cabin door as soon as you board, you should pack your decorations in your carry-on bag.
Where do you find cruise door decoration ideas?
If you're looking for decoration inspiration, Pinterest is a great place to start. You'll find thousands of ideas for door decorations on the site. You can filter your selection further by putting the cruise line name into the search bar. For example, if you're going on a Carnival cruise, search "cruise door decorations carnival cruise line" to get ship-specific ideas.
I also love finding ideas on Etsy because I can see and buy decorations right away. Hundreds of Etsy shops sell cruise door decorations, but buy them early so they arrive in time for your vacation. Also, read reviews before you place an order because some shops offer higher-quality products than others.
You can also find acceptable door decorations at party stores, dollar stores or the Target Dollar Spot. If you're looking for decorations where you live, you can find great cruise decorations with a tropical vibe during the spring and summer months.
Do cruise lines sell decorations on board or online?
Some cruise lines sell door and cabin decorations online before a cruise begins and on board once you've embarked. These include Disney Cruise Line , Royal Caribbean and Carnival Cruise Line . If you plan on buying your decorations online or on the ship, be sure you have plenty of room in your suitcase to bring them back home with you, too. The decoration package might include souvenir pillowcases, towels and picture frames, as well as easier-to-pack magnets.
Do you have to decorate your door on a cruise?
![custom made cruise door decorations](https://thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net/us/originals/2023/11/20231129_Carnival-Cruise-Sunshine_KTolley_192.jpg?width=3840)
No cruise line requires you to decorate your door, but joining in the fun of decorating can enhance your overall cruise experience, especially on certain cruise lines. If you're sailing with Disney Cruise Line or Carnival Cruise Line, you'll find that many doors in the cabin hallways are decorated. Disney cruise door decorations can range in style from large magnets featuring Mickey and Minnie Mouse to smaller decorations that showcase a family's personality and interests or even themed decorations to match a holiday-based cruise, birthday or anniversary celebration.
For Carnival cruise door decorations, the majority of the options tend to lean more into the fun party vibe on board Carnival's ships. You'll find that many of the doors are covered in cocktail glass magnets and have cute signs that say something about a celebration or being on vacation mode.

Frequently asked questions
What types of wood do you use for your solid wood doors.
We use the highest quality of mahogany wood for our doors.
Mahogany is considered one of the best woods for doors due to several reasons:
- Durability : Mahogany is a dense and hard wood that resists wear and tear, making it highly durable. It also has natural resistance to decay, rot, and pests, which makes it ideal for exterior doors that are exposed to the elements.
- Stability : Mahogany is relatively stable and doesn’t expand or contract much with changes in humidity and temperature. This stability ensures that doors made from mahogany won’t warp, twist or crack, even in extreme weather conditions.
- Aesthetic appeal : Mahogany has a rich reddish-brown color that develops a beautiful patina over time. This unique color and grain pattern give doors made from mahogany a classic, elegant, and timeless look.
- Sound insulation : Mahogany is an excellent sound insulator due to its density, which makes it ideal for exterior doors, where noise reduction is a priority.
Overall, mahogany’s combination of durability, stability, aesthetic appeal, workability, and sound insulation make it a highly sought-after wood for doors.
All our doors are crafted from sustainably sourced materials and are built to last.

Best of Moscow by high speed train

Sure would appreciate someone who has taken "Best of Moscow by high speed train" from St. Petersburg could please share their impressions of this shore excursion. From the description this sounds like a very long day.
Wondering how the 4 hour train trip was in terms of accommodations, etc. Also what time did you leave the ship and what time at night did you return? Were both legs of the trip on the high speed rail (I read that slower trains also travel the same tracks)?
My wife and I are considering this excursion. We thought that if we are making all the effort to go to Russia then how could we pass up going to Moscow, walking in Red Square, seeing St. Basil, etc.

If you are considering this on the 2015 June Baltic cruise on Voyager; my suggestion is don't. There is so much to do in St. Petersburg and although a train is one of my favorite ways to travel the time would be far better spent in St. P.
Thanks for the advice. Yes, this would be on the Voyager during the 2015 season but not yet sure exactly which cruise.

We did the Moscow excursion "on a different luxury line", but from your brief description it sounds very much like the same trip, so I will operate on that assumption. It is a VERY long day! We left the ship at 5:30 AM and returned at 12:30 AM. The highspeed train trip is comfortable, and while they call it "Business Class" it does not compare well to the equivalent class on say Rail Europe. When we did it in 2011, we did have highspeed both ways, and the trip back seemed much longer as the adrenaline and excitement had worn off!:D
Moscow itself is not that terribly different from any other big city in the world, but this Cold War kid never thought he would ever stand in Red Square, never mind walk the grounds of The Kremlin, or tour The Kremlin Palace, or see (but not visit) Lenin's Tomb, or visit The Armoury. But he did, and he loved every minute of it! Yes, it is a long day, and you barely scratch a scratch on the surface, but it is worth it. There is a tremendous amount to see in St. Petersburg, but every Baltic cruise goes to St. Petersburg, so you can go back if you choose to. Not every cruiseline offers you the chance to see Moscow.

I have not personally done this tour, but our last time in St Petersburg, the private guide that we hired for a day was leading the regent tour to Moscow on the high speed train the next day. He said it was way better than the previous alternative, which was flying to Moscow and back. He said that you actually got to Moscow faster because you didn't have to deal with airline checkin etc. it did seem like a very long day to me, and there is so much to see and do in st. Petersburg that I didn't consider doing it.

We toured to Moscow from St. Petersburg via the hi-speed SAPSAN train last September, from a Baltic cruise on the Oceania Marina. You need to have a two-night, three day port call in St. Petersburg to take this tour because the tour typically leaves the ship around 5:00 - 5:30 AM and doesn't return until after midnight the next day. We didn't take the ship's tour; we made private arrangements with TravelAllRussia for three days of touring, the first and third days in St. Petersburg and the second day the tour to Moscow by train. Our cost for the private tour for three days was about the same as what the ship charged for the excursion to Moscow alone. There are a number of private tour agencies that operate in St. Petersburg and offer the Moscow train tours; we would strongly recommend them over the ship's tours.
All three days had private guides with car and driver. The second day, the driver picked us up at the ship and took us to the train, but we were alone on the train, and met in Moscow by the guide on the station platform. After our tour and dinner, we were brought back to the train and after the return train trip met by the driver and taken back to the ship. Because you are alone on the train you must have your own Russian visas.
If this is your first visit to St. Petersburg, I would agree there is much more to see there. We found Moscow somewhat a disappointment, particularly Red Square. The Kremlin and the cathedral in Red Square were also worth seeing. But the best thing we saw was the Moscow subway! I worked for the Washington Metro system back in the 1980s as it grew from 40 to 80 miles and although I was in the computer area, I learned a lot about the challenges of running a subway system. We used the Moscow system to get across the city from where we had dinner to the train station, and I was amazed at the cleanliness', speed of operation, the short headways maintained, and the courtesy of everyone involved. A very impressive experience!
We had been to St. Petersburg before, and so had the time to take a day and go to Moscow. Also, I really like trains, and the SAPSAN is a German train set running on Russian rails. Seats are like first class domestic air, spacious but not too plush or comfortable, but with enough room. Not too much recline, and almost 8 hours on the train in two shots is a lot for an old man. They come through and sell drinks, candy, etc. but the sellers don't speak English and no one around us helped, so we had just poor coffee once coming, and brought stuff with us for the trip back. Not too much to see from the train either, particularly on the return when it is night the whole way.
If you decide to go, take a private tour and avoid the overly expensive ship's tour. I'm glad we did it, but wouldn't bother to repeat the tour; we've seen Moscow.
Thanks so much to all of you for the thorough and thought insight. Yhe information you have provided is most helpful.
countflorida: Your detailed post is very helpful. We are not quite ready for a Baltic cruise but should do so within a year. Time enough to do our pre travel research, bookings and visa gathering.:) Thank you!

Sure would appreciate someone who has taken "Best of Moscow by high speed train" from St. Petersburg could please share their impressions of this shore excursion. From the description this sounds like a very long day. Wondering how the 4 hour train trip was in terms of accommodations, etc. Also what time did you leave the ship and what time at night did you return? Were both legs of the trip on the high speed rail (I read that slower trains also travel the same tracks)? My wife and I are considering this excursion. We thought that if we are making all the effort to go to Russia then how could we pass up going to Moscow, walking in Red Square, seeing St. Basil, etc.
I did this on Seabourn. IMO DONT. Take Aeroflop (er Aeroflot). The train has non folding seats where you are literally knee to knee with your fellow passenger (facing each other). Further they don't believe in air conditioning. It's also the worlds slowed bullet train. I think I would have found more enjoyment wandering around the St. Petersburg and Moscow airports.
Countflorida,
This is a little off topic,, however we had planned a river cruise in Russia but decided we would rather stay on land and have booked about two weeks with Travel-All-Russia using the private guide and driver. I'm curious as to how you found them as a tour company.
The guides they provided were fine. We had a different guide each of the days in St. Petersburg, but both were flexible, pleasant, knowledgeable and spoke English very well, as did the guide in Moscow, incidentally. She was a bit aloof, distant, not too friendly, but otherwise fine. In fact, she was the one who suggested taking the Metro, which unexpectedly became one of the highlights of the Moscow excursion. If I have a complaint with AllTravelRussia, it is with their plan and its execution (more later).
I had requested emphasis on World War II (in Russia, the Great Patriotic War) sites and info. In scheduling us, they weren't careful about dates and a couple of the sites we wanted to see were scheduled on the third day, after we'd been to Moscow. But both sites were closed that day of the week, and that info was readily available, right on web sites describing them. Also, the included meals (lunches in St. Pete, dinner in Moscow) were not what we asked for: light meals with some choices, so we could avoid things we didn't like and choose things we did like. My request was ignored; we were given full Russian meals with a fixed menu, no choice. On the first day, a fish dish was the entre, but I am allergic to fish. Fortunately, I had the e-mail I'd sent with me and showed it to the guide, and she was able to change my entre to chicken, which was very good actually. But we didn't want a 3-4 course lunches or dinner (in Moscow). We had the guide drop the lunch the third day, although we never got any credit or refund. But, particularly in contrast to the ship's tours, the prices were so reasonable we didn't worry too much about it.
The people who were on the ship's tour to Moscow saw us boarding the same train for which they were forced to queue up and wait on the way back, and asked us what we had done. I was candid and open so they were not happy when I explained what we had arranged and particularly what it had cost. Also, when we returned to the ship, we found they had laid on a late supper for those who had gone to Moscow, so up we went and had something. Well, it turns out the late supper was supposed to be just for those on the ship's tour, but we and others on 'independent' tours, there were a dozen or more of us, crashed the party, actually got there first, and they didn't realize it until the larger group arrived and there weren't enough tables/places set. By that time, the 'independents' had all gotten served and were eating; what could they do?
A couple from the larger group sat down with us and asked us about our tour, and they were the ones I told about our arrangement and its cost. They turned to others who’d been with them and announced the details, loudly enough so the whole room heard, which started a lot of bitching and complaining. I gathered they weren't very happy with the ship's tour to begin with, and this was the straw that broke the camel's back. We finished up and beat it out of there, but overheard later that one of the excursion staff came to check on something and ran into a real mess. I caught a cold on the trip, which forced me to bed the second day following in Tallinn, so by the time we reappeared we heard about the contretemps' but apparently no one recalled who started it, thankfully.
Because of what happened to us, I would probably not use AllTravelRussia if I were to go again, or if I did, I would be sure to get confirmation of every detail of the tour. They do have good reviews generally, and we were certainly helped by their visa department and liked the guides and drivers. Their weakness, I say now with full 20:20 hindsight, is that once the sales person who plans the tour, sells it to you and collects your money, he (or she) transfers the plan to their Russia office for implementation; there is no follow-up to make sure it gets done right. And that is where our problems arose; we paid for a custom tour but got a standard package with a few destinations switched, and no one checked them out, even to see when they were open the day we were scheduled to go. If you check every detail that’s important to you, it should be OK, but that’s a hell of a way to have to do business, in my opinion.
Thank you for the 20/20 hindsight observation on your Russian tour operator, and better priced than the ship's excursion cost.
Thanks very much for the feedback.
We had the same experience as you so far as price. We originally booked a Viking Cruise but, hearing some things about the river cruises that made us unhappy, looked into other options. T-A-R cost the same or less than a cruise and had us in hotels for 11 days. We opted for the private tour. They have three tour levels, based on hotels. We originally opted for the four star as it did not cost much more than the three star hotels. Finally we decided to throw it all in and upgraded to five star. In Moscow we will be at the newly opened Kempinsky which is two blocks from Red Square. In St. Petersburg it is the Grand Hotel Europe, one of the most vaunted luxury hotels in Russia. Location is important for us as the tours use up only part of the day so being in the center of everything for our independent touring is important. As with many other cities, the less you pay, the farther out of the center of town you are.
We have been working with our salesman in D.C. and he seems to get back to us with the changes we want. He recently returned from Russia so is up on everything. When I asked they said they paid the full TA commission if I wanted so I got my usual TA on board so he is watching our back and giving us that extra level of comfort. He also set up our air, which I know pays him little or nothing, and got us business class for much less than T-A-R wanted for economy, though it took working for a while with a consolidator. He's happy to get his 10 percent on this trip without having booked it. He also took care of the trip insurance. We've been doing a lot of research on the CC sister site Trip Advisor and will write a report there. We will, I guess, become a source of info for CC members after having spent 5 days in Moscow and 6 in SP.
