First time cruiser, but experienced traveler here.

For the NCL Greece/Italy cruise I am scheduled for in September, I know that the port in many stops is not really near the destination (Athens, Rome, Florence, even Santorini for example.)

Do I need to pre-plan transportation in these cases?  I don't think I want to spend a day in Piraeus and I know that port is half an hour from Athens proper..

I am guessing that ship sponsored excursions are one solution, but I really prefer to explore on my own.

My sister was born on this ship in 1960-61 NY. I am looking for any news articles, photos, or other mentions of this event. She passed away in '74. If anyone has information on this, please let me know.

My condolences on the loss of your sister.

It seems that she was born on the same cruise that my Popou passed away on.  I picture part of his spirit transferring to her!!

May their memories be eternal.
