my family was in Santorini on July 22. We ended up walking down the stairs. Never again!! OMG, it was horrible. Maybe it would be better when its not so hot, but I wore running shoes and I slipped many times. My legs were shaking I was so scared of slipping and falling on my ass LOL. Plus the donkey's were rushing by at one point...made it scarier. Btw I'm 48, DH 51 and kids are teens. We all slipped and in the end wished we had waited for the cable car.

I am sitting at home killing time, waiting to board my flight to Paris later tonight. We are in Paris, Venice then Rome before we board our cruise on July 18th. We have our carryons and backpacks ready to go. I have found the packing cubes very helpful in saving space. Granted I will have to repeat outfits I wore on land part of the trip, on the cruise...I'm so happy we were able to fit everything in carry ons. I"m on Air Canada and our flight is delayed an hour....not taking the chance of losing time fighting for my luggage too!! Good Luck...it can be done!

Wow, thank you so much for the detailed information!! Exactly what I was looking for! 🙂 Appreciate it!

great, thank you for your response. 🙂

awesome, thank you. 🙂

Hello, My family of 4 will be in Mykonos in July. We have never been. I want to just spend the morning/early afternoon relaxing at a beach, but DH and kids (aged 15 and 17) want to go to Delos before meeting up with me for lunch. I've already asked here, and the recommendation was not to book a sunbed ahead of time, but just go to a beach and rent one once I'm there. Do you have a recommendation where a single woman will feel safe and not scammed? Does anyone know if I'll be able to rent 2 sunbeds even though I'll be the only one there for a few hours? How should the rest of them go to Delos? There is always the option of booking through the cruise line, but I try and do things on our own. Is there an easy way to get a tour once we are on the island? Thanks

Oh wow, thanks for the information! I think I'll just go to a beach and see what happens.

Hi, my family of 4 will be stopping in Sicily in July in the port of Siracusa. I have a tour with Rome In Limo to take me to Mt. Etna. How do I book a tour up Mt. Etna before we get there? I haven't been able to find the official site. thanks

Right?? Like we prefer you not to come to Canada to possibly spread it here Thank you!!

can I ask a question here. I asked it in the port board, but no one answered. I will be in Kusadasi in July. We have a tour of Ephesus booked and I've asked to be dropped off at 1:30 at Ladies Beach for lunch and leisure. I wondered what the best way to get back to port was? Thanks

I did. I can see the menu for other restaurants, but for some reason it doesn't show on the Main Dining room

I did what you said, but the word menu doesn't appear. I will keep trying. Thanks for the help 🙂

I'm in the app right now and can't see the menus. Could you walk me through where to find this? sorry, not the best at technology!

great info thanks!

okay great, appreciate it.

Hello. I was thinking of booking a dinner at Izumi for a night on my upcoming cruise on Rhapsody departing on July 18th from Rome. Do you save money by booking prior to being on the cruise? Is it best to book on the one Sea Day, or is there a special dinner or something that night? It's been a while since I've been on a RCL cruise. TIA 🙂

Hi, my family of 4 will be taking a tour with Ephesus Shuttle in July. Once we do the tour of Ephesus and Terrace Houses we have requested to be dropped off at Ladies Beach to relax and have some lunch. We want to also have some time to shop and wondered what the best way to get to the port area from Ladies Beach was. is there a market around Ladies Beach, or is it better to shop around the port. We are there form 7am to 8pm. TIA

Thank You Hank, appreciate the detailed info. So I guess I will not book a day pass but use the bus to find a beach. My husband and kids want to first go to Delos then meet me at the beach. I guess it should be okay for me to go by myself and grab 2 sunbeds for when they are back right? We definitely will be eating lunch and I will order some drinks for myself while I relax without the family LOL. Does anyone have experience with a place that has good food on Ornos beach? thanks

I had asked the same thing as my husband and kids wanted to first do Delos then come. I was hoping for a reduced fee, but they said no. I haven't booked anything yet. I've also seen where you can book a subbed elsewhere but I'm still not sure. I haven't gotten much feedback here for that. Most people are saying to just find a beach once there. I kinda of want to book ahead though. Still looking.I will update if I find any other info.

I'm disappointed to be honest. May never be in Sicily again..wondering if it's worth still going to Mt. Etna?

I'm on the July 18th sailing of Rhapsody and kinda bummed we are not going to Catania. I had already booked a tour of Mt. Etna and Taormina. We are in port from 8am -6pm, I'm guessing the time it will take for us to get there from Siracusa is not worth it right? The kids were so excited to be going up the volcano...ugh

Oh man!! I have a reminder set on my phone to book the colosseum tickets 30 days out, but now it seems I'm going to have no hope of getting them. That really sucks! I was hoping not to pay the crazy prices of the tour groups.

Good to hear...we have them booked for a tour in July!

has anyone used this site to book a sunbed on a beach in Mykonos? I was looking at Kostantis Beach Restaurant...has anyone been there?

hello, my family of 4 (including teens aged 15 and 17) will be in Mykonos on July 24, 2022 (DH's bday) and wondered if anyone has recently gone to a beach resort with a day pass? I read about Saint John hotel but I don't see anything about a day pass on their website.
