I will be on a cruise in May that makes a stop in Trapani. I would like to see Erice, but it is listed as strenuous. For those that have been, how difficult is it? Is it just a lot of walking, or are the stairs difficult? Thank you for your responce.

Try the Auto Europe site. I have used them before successfully.

Windstar.

Thank you for your advice.

We are on a Windstar cruise in May with a stop in Cagliari. Has anyone had experience driving on the island and what are the best options for renting a car? Thank you for your advice.

So sorry, Try putting an ice pack on the area. It might help until you can get professional help. Hopefully, the new antibiotic will kick in and give you some relief.

Thank you Edinburgher and Cruise Mom

Any other tour ideas when docking in Cagliari, if you are not interested in beach time?

Have you thought about a river cruise? They are smaller and much easier to meet people. Depending on the cruise line you choose, excursions are included. I have not traveled solo on one, but I think I would feel comfortable doing so.

Check out AmaWaterways.

Thank you. That sounds delightful!

I have not sailed on Avalon, but have been on 4 cruises with AmaWaterways. I would not call them formal. The food is very good, if that is important to you and all excursions are included.

Thank you so much Susan!

I am also prone to sea sickness, and the wrist pressure band and ginger chews really helped me. I was skeptical, but they worked.

They really take care of their gentle walkers. Just make sure that you get in the "pink" group when you arrive at your destination. In Salamanca, they even arranged taxis back to the restaurant for those that needed them. They are very accommodating in Lisbon and Porto also. We were in Lisbon on our own before joining the pre-stay group. We took a Tuk-Tuk tour which worked out well because he drove you as close as he could, so you were not climbing hills. Once we were on the pre-tour, they also had different groups for those that had difficulty with hills and stairs. It is a great trip.
