Hello from Missouri! My sister and I will be joining you on this beautiful ship! Our first time on Venezia and in Halifax, but we spent 3 days in Bermuda on an NCL ship in 2019. I don't think we will book any excusions through the ship. Will probably just self tour in Halifax and find something through another tour company for Bermuda. My son lives in Manhattan and we will spend one day pre-cruise and 4 days post-cruise seeing the sights.
