Just got back from the May 25-June 6 cruise on Riviera. I must honestly say that Concierge is not worth it at all. The Lounge has a few bagels and coffee in the morning and yesterday’s news paper. The Laundry takes a minimum 3 days. Breakfast in the morning in our cabin was a nice touch, especially on days when we had to be out for an excursion at 8 am. The room itself is identical to a regular balcony room so no value there. I would not have booked concierge at time of booking except that was all available when we booked. Save your money for private excursions. I only saw my concierge twice, when I went to the Lounge and ask to book the specialty restaurants an extra two nights, he was not even all that pleasant and helpful, I went to the restaurant myself and did the booking. There you have it my 2$$ worth.

Hi Asha . Believe the date we are in Livorno is Sunday June 3. You can include myself and my wife to make us 4 in total. Are you planning to go straight into Florence ? As we have been to Florence previously and were hoping to find a group like this. I see that we are in port till 8 pm. What time were you thinking about the return trip. You should repost this on the role call. More will join in possibly.

Hi Asha. My bad. Had the wrong cruise. We are on the cruise previous. Enjoy your cruise.

We (2 people) are interested in taking a mini bus to Florence from Port of Livorno I have been advised by Tuscany bus company if 8 passengers travel together the cost would be Euros 40 each pick up and drop off at the dock, is any one interested?

My wife and I are on the May 25th sail on Riviera. We are planning on taking the ferry back and forth from Amalfi to Positano. We have done this before a few years ago. The Amalfi coast and all its small towns and alley ways are our favorite part of Italy.
