Mr.Bill- We were going to do a Med cruise this year but changed to a tour of Italy in the fall. I did a lot of excursion research. In Rome-The ship docks approx. 1.5 hours from the city. So any tour is going to include 3 hours of travel time. IMHO the best you can do is to bite the $$ bullet & hire a private van(with another couple or 2 it cuts the $$ dramatically). You are only there for 1 day so you have to pack in anicient Rome & The vatican. Venice- We have visited 4X's.It is a city you can do on your own. Very small & easy to navigate.You must take a gondola ride. Dubrovnik-There is a ship excursion for about 3 hours that is a walking tour of this walled city. For specific info google. FYI-The best way to obtain Euros is thru an ATM machine-Many located in whatever airport you land in. Jack

We did this trip last year. We hired private drivers in Naples, Rome, Florence,Santorini and Villefrance. Best thing that we could have done.Got lots of historical information and saw those areas through the eyes of a native to that area. We got into venues very easily as they spoke the language and knew the people at all of the places we wanted to visit. I would do it again in a heartbeat.Have fun planning!!!

Linda,

How did you find the people who toured you? Right on the dock, or did you know ahead of time?

Thanks!

Curious - how did you arrange your tour in Villafrance? I'm traveling with a group and my responsibility is organizing Villafrance outing.

Where you pleased with the service, etc.

Thanks for any input you can provide.

We researched ahead of time & booked online. They were waiting for us at the pier.
