I used ItalyTours.eu for a tour in Florence/Pisa and again in Rome. I enjoyed the smaller more personal nature of the tour (8 people vs. 60 in a tour bus). Our driver in Florence/Pisa, Elizabetta, was so lively and fun and she made the trip so much more enjoyable.

On both excursions, the drivers met us outside of the ship and the predetermined time and took us to great photo stops until they met us up with our tour guides. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and took us where we needed to be and allowed us to also have free time on our own.

The company was very professional with the booking process and kept us informed of where and what time to meet. They knew exactly when the ship was leaving the port and got us back to the boat with plenty of time to spare.

I used the cruise's excursions for the other ports, but would've gladly booked with ItalyTours had they been available. It was a more economical and personal experience.

Sounds like a good time! I'll be cruising solo in December, before joining friends on an Atlantis charter in March.

Sounds like meeting some folks on board won't be an issue! :)

This does sound fun, especially with staying in NYC before and/or after the trip.

I wonder when they'll announce it. They definitely have an amibitious first half of 2016 planned with cruises in January, March, April...and now May.

Right now it's just the Atlantis Southern Caribbean Cruise on the Summit in March 2016.

If my solo "normal" cruise goes well this December, I might make that an annual getaway. ;)
