Hi, It is cheaper to get your owm visas as Cunrad will charge you a lot more if they do it for you. Go inline and find the High Commission for the countries involved and apply online direct to the HC.

Hi Bill/Christine, we are also off on the cruise from HK to Southampton next month(44nts) on the Victoria, have you not had your information pack from cunnard informing you of the requirements of visas for China and India, or is it next year you are off.The answer is YES you will need to obtain visas.There are many websits that will help, or if you would prefer Cunnard have a servce that will do it all for you, but it is a lot more expensive. Hope my comments help.

I strongly recommend you find out which visas you require, as some countries must be applied for yourself. Other visas are obtained by the cruise line, but the bottom line is, visas are your responsibility. Japan and India as an example can only be obtained personally and not by the cruise line........Wilba

I didn't think a visa was required for UK citizens to visit Japan Wilba, not for a stay less than six months anyway.
