I may look into it this summer. I'm too busy during the school year. We don't need another credit card. We put all our purchases on the ones we get air miles for, mostly the Sapphire Reserve.

No, I had not considered this. I hate the thought of dealing with opening a new account and moving funds around, but it's something to consider. Our Sapphire card doesn't charge foreign transaction fees. We will use it for everything except cash withdraws from our WF account. We get triple points on that card for all travel related purchases. We will have an alternate cc with us just in case something would happen to that card.

It looks like WF just charges a flat fee of $5.00 for debit card ATM withdraws. We will use our Sapphire Card for purchases.

Marina Grande looked perfect but appears to be fully booked already.

Too late to change my original post, but it should have said food tour not good tour. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hotel Rialto

I know some of our excursions require cash.

My friend gave me a beautiful scarf I plan to bring for churches, if needed. Our plan is to travel there with carry on and then maybe purchase a suitcase or backpack to bring home new purchases. I’ve already “warned” him that I plan to do some shopping.

We have the Pearl booked Athens to Venice this summer. What themed nights should we expect? Do they have a white party? Will the men need long pants for the restaurants? I plan to bring dresses/skirts since it will be so warm so I’m not worried about myself. (We have 10 nights in Italy pre-cruise) I know dh is planning on brining one pair of long pants to enter the churches and such, mostly while staying in Rome. Is one pair sufficient for him. We’re going to attempt to do all carry on for the first time! I’m hoping they will have a silent disco. They are SO fun!!

June 21st. Can’t wait!!

Thank you! Thought so but it’s been so long since I did all my research.

We have booked everything for our 3 weeks vacation this summer except dinners. Tours, transfers and ship excursions. We are starting with 5 nights in Rome. We have a good tour planned one night and are going to try to get reservations at Armando Al Pantheon and my dh has a reminder set to book as soon as reservations open. Should we make other reservations? One day we have a day trip to Tuscany and will get back late. Should we make any reservations for our 3 nights in Amalfi. I wouldn’t like our hotel’s restaurant, it’s too “fancy” for my taste. I do want to have at least one water front meal. Would that require a reservation? No idea where I’d want to go. Our one night in Naples we will most likely do pizza. Then it’s off to Athens for a couple nights pre-cruise. Not sure what we’re doing in Venice yet. We’ve booked Doge’s Palace and plan to do a gondola ride. Not sure what else. We have a full two days there, fly home early afternoon on the third.

How many cash would you suggest for 3 weeks in Europe?

We’re booked at Albergo Del Senato. I don’t recall, do they have an elevator? They do have A/C, right? No pool but does have a roof top bar, I believe.

We ended up booking with Get Your Guide. Thanks!
