Heading to Greece next July. There will be five of us, 3 adults and 2 teens. Would appreciate some hotel recommendations near the port in Ravenna. Molto grazie!

Come on folks, anybody?

We were at Trunk Bay in April of 2013, had a fantastic time. Really enjoyed the snorkeling course that is marked very well and not too deep water. What was more fascinating were the pelicans. Our travel group was 10 adults and we would be in waist deep water with schools of small fish swimming near us. The pelicans would dive right into them less than 20' away from us and come up with a full mouth pouch of fish! They didn't mind us at all. I recommend Googling Trunk Bay.

You will spend A LOT of time standing in line either the day before or day of disembarkation when paying in cash. Best and easiest way is to set up your on board account with a credit card. No standing in line.

My wife and I along with our daughter and two grands will be on the Explorer OTS next July. We will be embarking and disembarking in Venice. The islands we will be visiting are Santorini, Mykonos, Athens and Olympia(Katakonos). The questions I have are: 1. Do the beaches excursions by Royal have lounge chairs, umbrellas, bathrooms, snack/drink bar? 2. What is the duration of these beach excursions? I appreciate your comments, this is our first trip to Greece. rjac

Good deal, grab it while you can!

True Story

Why don't people like Dracula? Because he's a pain in the neck.

Hope this doesn't offend anyone.

I don't think it matters what port you are embarking from if you're staying on the same ship. We have done many b2bs and that's the only way we like to cruise!
