Mykonos is very easy to do on your own. Get off the ship as early as possible to get on the water taxi and take photos in the Old Town and by the windmills. We then went to the bakery and to a delicious taverna for a Greek lunch. Afterwards, we went on our own to the beach.

tips on transportation from Venice to Explorer of the Seas
KDK replied to Christine C's topic in Royal Caribbean Discussion
I flew into Bologna and out of Marco Polo in Venice. The Bologna transfer is much, much easier! Super fast and you have the option of taking a very inexpensive and quick train ride or taking the Royal Caribbean shuttle from either the airport or train station. Royal Caribbean also has a shuttle from either Marco Polo or city center in Venice. -

They changed the itinerary just a few days before we left on the cruise. It wasn’t that Southsider was complaining about being disappointed with the original itinerary. The new port was not at all a place that had the same level of guest engagement or opportunity. I completely empathize with their disappointment and frustration.

I was on your cruise on the same deck. Same issues with ceiling noise and MTD. The MDR food was also pretty disappointing. The Kotor situation was a huge disappointment. I did enjoy the itinerary, however. We think this will be our last cruise with RC.

Just got off Explorer and the MDR food was very disappointing, particularly the red meat dishes: steak, roast, prime rib, etc. full of gristle, fat etc. people next to me ordered premium and had to send it back. On the other hand, the service was wonderful, which leaves me in a bind when I give my review to RC. I don’t want the staff to be penalized for food quality over which they have no control.

Thank you all for your helpful advice! We had a great day in Mykonos and Agios Stefananos was perfect for our needs.

I just finished my cruise and Mykonos was a port that we found didn’t need an excursion unless you want to see Delos. We had an amazing time on our own. Disembark as early as possible and take the first seabus to old town (4€ round trip per person no credit cards). The old town was empty and perfect for exploring the windmills, Little Venice and gorgeous streets. We took tons of amazing photos. Then we went to Giora’s Medieval Bakery (running since the 1400s) for amazing baklava and spanikopita! We had a delicious Greek lunch of tzatziki, Greek salad, grilled octopus and fresh grilled fish at Vegera in port. We then took the sea us back to old port and walked to Agios Stefano beach which had beautiful water and stayed there until time to return to the ship.

I have a few questions about passports. 1) Does royal Caribbean keep your passport for the duration of the cruise in Europe? 2) if not, do you take your passport with you on your excursions in case of an emergency or do you leave them locked in your cruise cabin safe? People seem totally split on this and now I’m confused what to do.

My daughters would like to go to the beach at Mykonos. The royal Caribbean excursion only has departures left for 930 instead of the 830 time we want it does anybody know how easy it is to get to the beaches on our own? Also, does Royal Caribbean have a shuttle that brings us to old town?

I’ve been spending a lot of time researching, and it seems like a great place to go is to Lake Skadar. He would take a traditional wooden boat cruise through the lake maybe swim in a few locations and then have a fish lunch, which is a specialty of this lake region. I have contacted a few tour companies to see what the possibilities are to get transportation from bar to the lake and whether it is possible within the time constraints we have.

Royal Caribbean just changed our itinerary from KOTOR Montenegro, which I was very much looking forward to going to to another location called Bar. I’m super super disappointed. Does anyone know of any exciting things or beautiful things I can see in this new location?
