Booked a private limo into Rome and toured on our own.
Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy
Booked a private limo into Florence and did things on our own.
We took the Axe in Provence Excursion and loved it.
Took the Excursion to Agios Nicholas. Great tour.
Booked the Acropolis/Parthenon tour. Good Excursion, but Guide difficult to understand.
Loved it. Stayed in the Gothic Area for a few days prior to the cruise. Take the cable car from the port for a good view of Barcelona.
Booked a private tour to Pompei and Herculenean.
We did not take an excursion. Toured the palace and Hop-On, Hop-Off Bus.
Good and not so good. Took the Excursion to Split, which was a wonderful town. Guide conducted a very nice walking tour, good lunch provided, and some free time for exploring on own. Not so good: 2 hour ride both ways to Split.
We stayed on our own several days after the cruise.

When booking Specialty Dining, book as soon as you can after boarding. The restaurants are small and fill up fast.
Liked: The room and layout of bath area. We had a wonderful Steward who looked after our every want/need. Once during the cruise, they offered laundry for 19.99, all the clothes you could fit into the bag provided. Really liked the Freestyle dining...eat when you want to, where you want to. Dress up if you want to...don't if you don't. The restaurants for complimentary dining offered great food and the waitstaff were excellent. We used the Card Room on "At Sea Days" to play games with our friends. Liked the smaller ship.
Improvements: We had dining vouchers for the Specialty dining, but the dining rooms for the 4 restaurants were small and options for dining times were limited. NOTE: Book first thing when you get on the ship. The balconies are small; but still glad we had one. Older ship that showed some wear.
