To verify…is the cab fare $30 per person to and $20 per person back from the port to Mambo?  Is it a set price or can it be negotiated?

I would rather not do the bus option. 

We are sailing on Beyond for an 8 night cruise to the ABC Islands.  How many formal nights are there and do you know what nights they are? 

I recently saw a copy of a MDR menu that showed prices for lobster, fillet, and one other item. Is there a charge for these?

I read that the eclipse was scheduled for dry dock March 2021. Did this happen?  We are thinking about an Alaskan cruise next year and want to be sure that the ships been updated. Thanks. 

My husband and Iare considering booking the 7 day Greek Isle Cruise on the Dawn next summer.  The last dry dock for this ship was 2016.  I'm a bit concerned that the ship may be looking a bit worn by that point.  Should I be worried?  Also, would love any input from those who have done this itinerary.  Thanks!

Sailing on the Equinox in 2 days.  Can't wait!  Is there a elegant chic or formal night in the MDR?

Has anyone been here recently and taken the train that will take you the winery and the beach? Is it reliable? We were considering renting a car but thought this would be much easier. Thanks!

We are arriving in Piraeus on the Norwegian Star next week. We are planning on taking a ferry to Aegina. How far is the ferry dock from the cruise ship dock? Can we walk or do we need a taxi?

We are traveling with another couple. Is it possible to get separate bills for dinner or is that frowned upon?

Can you buy a single ride vaporetto ticket at the dock or should we buy a 24 hour pass? We are there only 1 day prior to our cruise.

Thank you!

Thank you! I will order one right now! :D

We are staying at the Hotel Canal Grande and are planning on walking to St Marks to attend Sunday mass at 8am. It looks like the walk should take about 25 minutes with about 25 different turns! Should we take a vaporetto instead?

I read that the Star was supposed to be out of dry dock a week or two ago. Has anyone sailed on her since? Reviews?

Pics? Thanks!

We will be docked in Athens on July 5 from 7am to 5pm. We are planning on taking a ferry to Aegina. I understand that there are 3 companies that travel there. Is one any better than another? I have read some bad reviews on one company due to delays. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Thank you Dubrovniktravelady! I was thinking about taking the taxi up to avoid long lines for the cable car. After hearing about the taxi ride, I think I'd rather stand in line! :D

We arrive on July 1 at 1pm. How bad can the cable car line get?

Can you reach the panorama restaurant by taxi? We'd like to take a taxi up and the cable car down.

We are arriving at Marco Polo Airport from Atlanta on June 30 at 9:10 am. We are planning on taking a private water taxi directly to our hotel. If I reserve it for 10 am, will that give us enough time to clear customs and collect baggage? Or should I not reserve it and just hope that there is availability when we arrive?

When you say "a couple glasses of wine" do you mean 2 or 2 each? ;)

We plan on having lunch at the MDR when we sail out of Venice this summer on the Star. What hours will it be open for lunch? Thanks!

Thank you.

Do you know approximately what hours the specialty restaurants are open and is the day we depart a good day to go? We are leaving out of Venice at 5:30.

We're traveling on the Star this summer with another couple. Is it correct to assume that only one of us call and make a reservation for 4 or does someone from each room have to call?

We're planning on taking a flying dolphin ferry from the port in Athens to Aegina. Does the flying dolphin ferry drop you off at close to shops and restaurants? Is there a beach within walking distance?

Does anyone know approximately how much a taxi would cost from Split to Trogir?

We will be docked in Dubrovnik from 1pm- 9pm on July 2. We are on the Star and will be the only ship in port. There is a ship excursion, Sea Kayaking on the Adriatic, that looks really cool, but it goes from 1:45 until 7pm. It include a motor boat ride, kayaking and swimming. That will not leave any time to experience the city of Dubrovnik. Has anyone done this excursion or have any thoughts on which way to go...walk or paddle?

Thank you Dubrovniktravelady! You are a wealth of information! 😊
