  1. Our Airbnb is close to the Borghese, restaurant recommendations in that neighborhood, please?
  2. Not a cult. Generally, kind, loving people who seek to spread positivity. Keeping “religion” out of the topic, but everyone is entitled to call their personal spiritual guide by whatever name/title/description of their choosing. My only concern would be the impact of any large group on venues etc…
  3. I love Transatlantics. I’m looking forward to sailing on the Beyond later in September. Keep posting! Enjoy every moment.
  4. Our port time has changed. We are now arriving in Istanbul at 4pm, departing the next day at 1. We have a tour scheduled for the second morning, but are considering what to do on our first evening. Any suggestions for a group of four well traveled women?
  5. For me, Portovenere is magic. It has been dubbed “Where the poets go to die”. I did purchase some great pesto, but can make no restaurant/tour recommendations. I was swept away from the sheer beauty, perhaps a memory from another lifetime.
  6. Portovenere is my favorite town in all of Italy. I revisit in my dreams often.
  7. After 28 days, I am still dragging my feet, clutching the handrails as I am forced to disembark.
  8. Thank you. Sailing out of Civitavecchia and through the Greek Islands.
  9. I was adopting the wait and see philosophy until I heard about the VAT added on in Europe. Is this true? I typically upgrade prior to the cruise, but with the increased daily charge, considered waiting a day or two onboard. Thanks, Dawn
  10. Thanks for your input. We decided to leave Denver on Friday and spend four full days in Rome. Happy Travels to you
  11. Has Flights by Celebrity replaced Choice Air or is it the same service with a new name?
  12. Thank you all so much. We’ve also been toying with the idea of flying into Venice on Saturday, taking the train to Civitavecchia on Wednesday before cruise on Thursday.
  13. Not renting a car. Private tour. Thank you.
  14. We’ve been to Rome a few times and are contemplating spending three nights pre cruise in Civitavecchia. Recommended day trips/tours that would work from the port town?
  15. Following along…same question for our sailing next October. We’re looking for a slower pace prior to our port intensive cruise. Three nights sipping great wine, sampling wonderful food.
