  1. After typing in info several times, I still don't know if any of it took.

     

     

    After booking excursions and drink wine and beer packages, if I submit Am I locked in or can you change them b4 cruise?

     

    I thought I read that certain wine packages ( the 4 bottle vs the 6) can be used in bars and not just the main restaurant, does anyone know?

  2. We disembark in Genoa and are not sure if we want or need to see city central. We are taking train to Rome and would like to be there by 430. I think theres a train that leaves 1215. Would we have time to see some of Genoa and if so, what do we do with our luggage? Thx

  3. Thank you all! We are looking forward, too. DH has been to Rome several times, first time many years ago studying during college and stayed a few months. He can speak language but is rusty. We plan on Rome 4 nights after cruise.

     

    We are travelling w 2 other couples ( one couple we met many yrs ago on CC)

     

    They are going to Australia next month.

     

    I did not know you could take water/sodas/BEER off ship, but don't think I would want a beer that early! but hey on vacation , when in rome.....

     

    And I thought w so many port days. Both of us would be $770. for all inclusive. So I thought a wine 10 bottle package, couple books of vouchers or even 3 books would be under 350. which is half the all inclusive-- What am I missing here??

  4. We will be doing Med Nov 2 on Fantasia.

     

    About how much is the wine package? And vouchers?

     

    I don't think we need all u can drink w 9 ports in 11 days.

    Most evenings we will be a couple hours w friends at dinner table

    so I thought wine bottle pck would be better.

     

    But I just don't know!!!

  5. Great to hear! We will be on Fantasia first time Nov 2, 9 ports in 11 days.

     

    What drink package did u get? The all inclusive which I don't think we need with so many port days and I only have a few few wine/beer per day. DH would drink more though.

     

    I was thinking about a wine and or beer package. Are there prices on website? I find all the package info confusing.

  6. has anyone done the MCS tour of Vatican?

     

    We normally do excursions on our own, but this is first Med cruise.

     

    we are going to Rome after 11 day cruise, but thought we should do ships tour of Vatican when we pull into port the week early. what do you think?

     

    Or any tours of Vatican not sponsored by MSC you recommend? Thanks

  7. We have looked at many rooms for just one night pre cruise and cant find anything inexpensive.

     

    We are flying from Texas 10-31 and wont arrive Milan till next morning. Then train ride to Venice probably arriving late afternoon. Of course , will be tired. Just need a room Saturday night b4 cruise on Sunday. Everything near plaza was either booked or very expensive. any ideas?

  8. We were looking at this for our 4 night pre cruise in Rome. Our first MSC cruise Nov 2 with cruise friends for 11 nights. So excited.

     

    DH studied in Rome during college and went back couple times, my first. He prefers to stay historic center. We saw price of about 200 per night.

     

    Any other places , maybe 150 per night?

    Hello, We are doing our first Med cruise Nov 2 Fantasia MSC. We are going to Rome first for 4 nights. DH studied there during college and has been back couple times, but my first.

     

    We are trying to find very reasonable hotel in historic center? Have looked at Resideza Zenardelli among others. He would like to be near Pantheon if possible. I will look at Maison. Best way to get from airport to hotel. train?

     

    Are you familiar with Romapass?

  11. We are going on Fantasia 11 day (9 ports) on Nov 2. First MSC cruise with our cruise friends, very excited.

     

    Want to go to Rome 4 nights before cruise. DH studied and stayed there for months during college and has been back a couple times, but not since 95.

     

    Will take train to Venice day before and will need to find hotel stay one night.

  12. We are doing our first MSC cruise Nov., 11 day Med with 9 ports, on fantasia.

     

    How much is package? We are not big mixed drinkers, but DH loves wine. And I like some whites, or sweeter wines and beer. So not sure what dif is between package and buying drink coupons. And keep in mind, we only have 2 sea days. Please tell me what you think.

  13. We've done it a couple times. I think last time they said they dont really like to or advertise, but our buddy Ray Snoozman talked him into it. It was about 6 bucks ea for a group and it was much better than taxi ride. I would just ask the operators you see at the dock there.
