You might find these links useful. The first is an over-view of what to see in Venice with other helpful embedded links which will perhaps help you decide what you would most like to do.

This is a thread from some time ago - but still relevant I think. Kotor is included but isn't on your itinerary though and Brindisi is new to Thomson so unless any posters have been there independently or with a different cruise line you might not get much feedback on that destination. However you can do a search on the Ports forums to find out more or post a question there.

 

But this review does contains info on most of your ports plus some excursion details. The posts which are most relevant are numbers 1, 6, 7, 15

Hope this helps.

I agree with Jim buy an all day ticket for the vapporetta and hop on and off wherever you want to go.
