I highly recommend whatalifetours.com.  We used them for an early vatican tour and a underground colosseum tour.  They were fantastic. 

I received the one free specialty dining as part of my package.  I was able to reserve one night at the Crown Grill  through the Medallion app,  when I checked out the total amount due was zero.  

I highly recommend Whatalifetours.com we used them for both the early morning Vatican tour and an underground Colosseum tours.  Both were fantastic!!  We got to go into the Sistine Chapel before the crowds.   

We just got off the Breeze and had a balcony cabin, there were no USB ports in the room.

Just got off the Breeze this past Saturday and it was luggage tags.

We used whatalifetours.com for 2 tours our last trip to Italy and they were fantastic.  They do offer a night food tour.  We booked them for an upcoming cruise.

We used www.romecabs.com last June and it was very nice.  They were there waiting for us when we disembarked and had a very clean van to take us to the airport.  I would recommend them.

We also were on the Epic in May this year and embarked and disembarked in Rome. We spent 4 nights prior to the cruise in Rome. We did all private tours for each of the ports. In Rome I highly recommend What a Life tours. We toured with them for Vatican and Colosseum. We used Rome in Limo for the other ports in Italy. They were really good and would recommend them.

Just back from Dawn sailing that stopped at Harvest Caye. We were there early in the morning and had to be back on board at 12:30. I had a insulated mug that I filled up before getting off, no one seemed to care.

We are disembarking in Rome on the Epic in May and have a 12;30pm flight back to the states. We are using a private shuttle service to get to the airport and I asked them the same question. They indicated to request a pick up between 8:30 and 9am.

We are a group of 8 people that would like a private tour in Palma that includes the Cathedral, Bellver Castle and village of Valldemossa. We are traveling in May on the NCL Epic and dock at 1pm and have to be back on ship at 7:30. We would also like to have some time to explore downtown and do some shopping. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

I am looking a booking an excursion with them for Pompeii, Sorrento and Positano and a question I had was how do the tickets work for entrance into Pompeii? I asked them the question and they said you get them on site. Just wondering if that means you have to wait in long lines to get them, which limits the time at the site. Also, we want to get a guide at the site. Looking for people that have had experience on this excursion and if you would recommend.

Thanks in advance.

We are cruising next May on the Epic out of Rome and we were able to get cheaper airfare from Delta Vacations when we booked a package with hotel. The total price for hotel prior to cruise for 4 nights with airfare was cheaper than what airfare was on delta.com. It was like getting the hotel for free and a $1000 discount on airfare. So, if you are planning to stay in Rome pre or post cruise it might be something to look into.

Thanks for the reply!

Traveling on the NCL Epic and wondering if we would be able to make a 12:30 flight back to the US?

You plan sounds much better than mine!! Thank you for your advice!

We are arriving in Helsinki at 7am and depart at 2pm. I am wondering if it's possible to go to Suomenlinna and also see a few sites like Rock Church? There is a waterbus that leaves at 10, we could see the 25 min film and take the 11am English guided tour and catch the 12:30 waterbus back. What is don't know is if there is time to see Rock Church before hand and still get to Market Square prior to boarding the waterbus and then get back to the ship probably by 1:30. Thoughts?

Danish Viking, thank you so much for your help!!! I really appreciate it!!

Thank you for your reply.

We are looking at Friday May 27 to Sunday May 29. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

If I could get something less than a total of $1000 for two nights, that would be great. I was looking at the Marriott and a family room was around 1100. I am open to having two rooms or 1 room. Either works for us.

Thank you!!

My family of four is staying two nights in Copenhagen before a cruise in May 2016 and are looking at a moderately priced hotel to stay that is within walking distance to sightseeing and in a safe part of town. Easy to get to from the airport and cruise terminal.

My children are older, so we are open to getting two hotel rooms if needed.

Any suggestions? One place I was looking at was the Avenue Hotel, it looks like it gets decent reviews on tripadvisor.

Thank you!!

ljandgb - can you share the name of the tour company you used for the Food Tour in Estonia. I am interested in looking at that for our cruise next spring.

Thanks!!

I haven't cruised RCI for a very long time, and was wondering if like Carnival if everyone of drinking age has to purchase the drink package if one person does. It would be a good deal for my husband, but not for me, I only usually have a drink or two or maybe none in a day.

Thanks for your help!!!
