I suspect however, that Oceania will not change the Winery excursion nor the beach excursion. They make far too much money on them. Far easier to refund some money. The fact that one does not scream and yell, I am sure is appreciated by Destination services and helped obtain a partial refund, but doubt it will do anything to change the excursions

On Rivera, last October our string quartet was completely male

Or perhaps, there was a staffing change and it had nothing to do with opinions and satisfaction

When an airline loses your bag, they take responsibility for its return. The baggage handlers in NYC airports work for the Port Authority but the individual airlines still assume responsibility for returning your luggage. They do NOT charge shipping and handling. Oceania’s response is indefensible, seriously unacceptable

We used a private car service, treviso airporter, booked online, for our transport from cruise ship in Trieste to Venice. They arranged for a water taxi to take us to our hotel as well. It was perfect. They handled our luggage, assisted with transfer to water taxi, who also helped with our luggage, dropping us at our hotel dock. Exceptionally easy, no waiting for others to get on the bus with Oceania transport! Cost was 400 euros for the four of us.

Either of those locations not at at all convenient, especially from near St. Marks. Agree, train is very easy to Trieste. Get a vaporetto or water taxi to St. Lucia train station, Venice to Trieste, where a porter will take your luggage into the terminal. $5 euro a bag.

We found the water taxi drivers were extremely helpful getting our luggage in and out of the taxi and even more helpful getting us in and out of the water taxi. The water taxi to the airport is a beautiful trip and well worth it! we used a private driver from Trieste to Venice and the company, treviso airporter also arranged for the water taxi to our hotel, included in our fee. The driver handled our of our luggage There are porters at piazzale Roma at the water taxi station who gladly help take your luggage into the terminal, or conversely to the water taxi, should you decide to take the train

We used treviso airporter. They were excellent, took care of everything. Driver even reminded us to not pay the water taxi driver in Venice, that it was taken care of. When we exited the ship terminal with our luggage, he was waiting right there with a sign and our name on it

Valletta, do not bother with the hop n/ hop off bus: a complete waste

In Rome we used Katie Farrar with eyes on Rome for a wonderful tour of the Vatican

Expensive, but so worth it. He arranges transportation from the ship to Pompeii and meets you at Pompeii.

In Pompeii, we used Gaetano Manfredi, he was absolutely fantastic

If Bonvoy elite, the Gritti Palace in Venice is fabulous

Yes, so you can get in and marvel and getting out is a nightmare!😂😂
