  1. We will be on the cruise in May 2024 and we have already booked "Oia in our own" for the descent and transport facilities to Oia. Then we’ll see on site
  2. We did a (Mediterranean) cruise on the vision last year and there are many activities even if the ship is smaller. No time wasted. The advantage of Baltimore for you will be the transport time to and from and... the price. The money saved can be used for shore visits.
  3. Cinque Terre, it's 4 000 inhabitants in all for the 5 villages... but 2.5 million tourists every year ! In 2016, Italy wanted to limit to 1.5 million but the project stopped
  4. London -> Southampton ? By train !!!!! London Waterloo station and southampton central (1h50) Cheap Train Tickets | No Booking Fees | South Western Railway
  5. The cruise arrives directly in the port of Naples. It is very easy to take a ferry and go to Capri for example to visit alone. No difficulty and it’s much cheaper than a RC excursion
  6. It depends on the destination. If you visit Rome, a lot of the city is flat. So the effort is not intense. If you go down to La Spezia and you visit Cinque Terre, the effort is sustained because the villages are high up, (there are steps and slopes). What is your cruise ?
  7. We were in Jewel in May to cruise in norway 8 nights and... no lobster

  9. Welcome to Europe, Some information: Split is easy to visit. The cruise arrives in the city centre. Split is a very beautiful and ancient city. Nearby, possibility with boat shuttles, to go to the small town of trogir. Dubrovnik: very easy to visit alone too. but the cruise does not arrive nearby. Either there will be a shuttle to the port or with royal caribbean, or the urban bus. Afterwards, the historic heart can be easily visited on foot. Naples: the ship arrives directly in town. there is just the street to cross. If this is the first time, it may be useful to take the sightseeing bus to visit. There is a bus stop right in front of the castle... in front of the port. Also, the possibility to get to Capri... Civitaveccia to finish: a shuttle bus to get out of the port. Then go to the station to take the train to rome (less than an hour by train).
  10. It's fantastic cruise. Beautiful country ! we will back to visit others ports cruise
  11. We will be also on this cruise and the next (B2B). This is not our first cruise and it is not the first time in the Mediterranean because we are... french
  12. Yes, this cruise have two ports to embark/disembark In barcelone, it's very easy to visit alone old city, ramblas, museum... or beaches in town
  13. 35km but a lot of traffic to enter and exit to marseille and... cassis is very touristic (a lot of people). By train, it's not easy. The train is direct but the cassis train station isn't in the center (4km distance from cassis port)
  14. it's very easy to go to capri
  15. Good morning, We are French and we know these destinations well (we also did this cruise 3 times). Palma: there is the possibility of bus or taxi to get off the boat to the foot of the cathedral. Then you can visit the old town on your own without any problem. It’s a very pretty city. Marseille: it is recommended to take the bus ticket with royal caribbean. It is more convenient. Otherwise, you have to walk in the port to enjoy the urban bus... La spezia: pretty city to visit. Popssibilités to take boats to visit cinque terre. Or the train, you have to go to the station (by taxi because it goes up). Many, many people on cinque terre Rome: royal Carribean excursion. Alternatively, a shuttle to get out of the port. Possibility to walk to civitaveccia. Or go to the resort to take the train to Rome. There is also a shuttle bus (but watch out for the car ciculation). Naples: the port is directly in the city. Just go down and cross the street. It has bus discoveries (sightseeing) very interesting. Otherwise, from the port, a lot of boat connection to visit Capri for example
  16. We were in Norway with Jewel of the seas (may 04-12th). 3 excursions in Geirenger, Alesund and Molde with local travel agency https://www.norwayexcursions.com/en/ Same royal excursions but... cheaper
  17. Good morning, The city of Split is very easy to visit alone and there are many things to see if it is a first time. There are urban beaches but also some nearby beaches (kasjuni beach). https://goo.gl/maps/u3xJKKJEnhVo9Mbe8 Otherwise, it is also very easy to get to Trogir from the split port. There are regular shuttles and it is much cheaper than the royal Carribean excursions
