Dream vacation made even better
We slept in on this morning and didn't get off the ship. But again the scenery was still very beautiful.
Very beautiful scenery. The city itself didn't have much to offer but the scenery in and of itself is breathtaking.
Make sure to walk inland about a quarter mile to one of the travel agencies on the island and take the bus tour that goes to the cave and then a beach swim. The beach they take you to is secluded and one of the most serene places on earth.
Beautiful beaches but that's about it. DO NOT RENT A CAR HERE! Our personal experience was not good here but mostly because of the car rental disaster. Plus there just isn't much to see except for the beaches. Take a taxi to wherever you want to go.
We stayed four days in Venice before boarding the ship so our experience will vary wildly against others but the city itself is amazing beyond words. So unique it must be experienced and seen with your own eyes. Any review or pictures do not serve this city the justice it really deserves.
Best port of call without question. My piece of advice is to walk inland past all the hustle and find a taxi driver to take you around the city. They are experienced, knowledgeable and will show you the best stuff to see on your own personal excursion at a much better price than anywhere else.

The only piece of advice I would offer is to talk to as many people as possible. Ship crew and patrons. The personalities and experiences the people have and share are what really make this experience once in a lifetime.
