We have booked a guide recommended by Rick Steves.

Thank you so much for all the great info! We had already decided we would be having drinks on their rooftop bar! 🍸🍷🍹

Out TA HIGHLY recommended the Hotel Grande Bretagne. Since this will probably be our only trip to Athens, we decided to splurge and stay there for two nights. We are looking forward to ending our trip at such a famous hotel! https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/athlc-hotel-grande-bretagne-a-luxury-collection-hotel-athens/

“Venice will no longer permit cruise ships to dock after the vessels were blamed for damaging the city's foundations and ruining the skyline. The Italian government made the announcement yesterday, revealing cruise ships would now be rerouted away from the historic city centre.20 hours ago” I wonder how this will affect our overnight in Venice next May?

Agree! The food on Oceania is ONE of the reasons we love Oceania!

Yes, loved that cruise. Do you remember the photo shoot of the young girls on the Segway’s! 😂

We would appreciate recommendations for private transportation for six from the port of Sorrento to Amalfi/Positano/Ravello. a nice place with a view to have lunch and any other suggestions you might have for us!😊 Thank you! Judy & John

Thank you, Paul!

How fun! I always wanted to meet StanandJim in person. CintiPam, I can't remember anything anymore. Didn't we go on a tour of Berlin with you guys? I think you arranged it.

Thank you for all your recommendations! I love the Oceania Forum. So excited to be taking another O cruise!

Thank you, Mura. We are excited about this cruise. We plan to stay a couple of days afterwards in Athens since we have never been there. We are also looking forward to the hotel we have booked there! Our wonderful TA recommended it. It is the Hotel Grande Bretagne. She also recommended a private guide for there.

We agree about Marriott. We are booked there now! Thank you again!😊

Thank you so much for this post! This is what my husband wanted to do in the first place! We are arriving just one day before the day we board the ship. We have already been to Rome twice and have no desire to go again, so we are going to use Marriott points and do as you suggested. Which Marriott do you recommend near the airport, if there is more than one, and any suggestions for transportation from hotel to ship? Thank you! Judy & John
