JStigs6 Posted July 9 #1 Share Posted July 9 We are new(er) cruisers and booked our next cruise to the Mediterranean. One of the stops is Rome, but there is only one excursion and it is already sold out. Does anyone know if they would be adding more excursions as the time gets closer?

jsn55 Posted July 9 #2 Share Posted July 9 No doubt there will be all kinds of SEs, they're just not formulated yet. What I can heartily recommend for Roma is a golf cart tour. It was a fabulous way to see everything up close while having a ball. I booked it through Viator. We were incredibly fortunate to have a high school history teacher as our driver and he was delighted that we were so fascinated with everything. A super afternoon in Roma! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can easily do Rome by yourself, or there are many recommended private tours - have you joined your roll call group ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trivia addict Posted July 10 #8 Share Posted July 10 A roll call thread is where people who are on your sailing discuss that particular sailing and get to know each other before the cruise. It is a good place to arrange slot pulls, bar crawls, shared private excursions, questions about your particular cruise, or even arranging an informal dinner to meet and greet the night before a cruise in the port city. Since I never use a ship excursion. I have had great success on a roll call finding and making many private excursions with those I will be sailing with. In fact on my Bermuda cruise last month my daughter and I booked a fantastic private sailing excursion. The cost was $1,000, but we found 8 other people on the roll call who were willing to pay $100 each and all of us had an afternoon of snorkeling, beach, and cliff diving! Made new friends and had a great time! For private excursions use google or I have even taken suggestions from Rick Steves and other guide books to find local guides. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
