katiegirl1264 Posted July 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Hi We are on EDGE next month in Italy and Greece. With the hot weather we want to do custom excursions that assure higher end cars with good air conditioning. What would you recommend? Thanks!!!

Rare mom says Posted July 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Have you tried asking this on the Ports of Call forums for the Ports you're interested in? Or your Roll Call. Private tours are not uncommon, so you should find some recommendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the coaches, mini vans, private cars we’ve been in the Med were well equiped. From a bit run down coach on shorex to a private Mercedes, all were adequate and all turned on their A/C as soon as the door closed. I don’t think there will be any difference, besides not being able to escape the heat on port busses, short walks to and from the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GastroGnome Posted July 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 20, 2019 There are always warnings about the AC not being "up to American standards" when outside America. But unless you guys travel in freeze boxes the AC has always seemed more than adequate to me. And I've not known anyone (American or otherwise) have a complaint about it. I don't think you would be guaranteed higher end cars on a private tour. There are lots of reasons to do private tours - but I don't think getting better AC is really one of them? None the less - as others have said. Post on the ports of call boards for your ports and see what replies you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alakegirl Posted July 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Withut telling us which ports, nor ehat you like to do, it is not possible to make a y recommendation beyond going to the Ports of Call boards and trying again there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeRick Posted July 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Celebrity Shore Excursions also does custom excursions for individuals or small groups. Expensive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted July 20, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 20, 2019 So we are guessing what ports the OP is going to be in? katiegirl1264, every port in Italy is covered here extensively, including tour vendors. A few, like the wonderful Rome in Limo (huge thread just down the board) provide tours in many of the ports, and booking multiple tours through them will get a discount. Just takes a little research around the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have experienced beater car/bus with excellent AC and high end car ( Mercedes E300 ) with terrible AC, be sure whatever tour you ask for you are clear on expectation. You could end up with a low end beater with great AC 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
