cruza

Will have 3 cars (12 people) coming from NJ to NYC. Trying to figure out how to get us all there. Anyone find any inexpensive parking garages not too far from the pier(s)?

Park across the river on Imperial Ferry parking and take the ferry across the river. Very convinient and easy. You don't need to drive to the NYC:

I am traveling to the following in ports in Italy: Florence, Rome, Naples, and Venice. Can you tell me which port has the best pizza? And what restaurant would have the best pizza? Also, what are some good restaurants in Venice for dinner?

 

Thank you :D

Of course, pizza napoletana!!! They have saying in Italy , to prepare good pizza, you need the guy from Naples. We've had relly good pizza Margherita in trattoria across the entrance to Pompei.

I'm booking romeinlimo for some of my pre-cruise time in Rome, thanks to the many accolades here on CC. My questions:

1-They are suggesting an 8 hour tour with a driver, and a guide for the Vatican. Do we need a guide for other sites? Or is the driver usually knowledgeable enough to provide info?

2-Have you ever just gotten a guide at the Vatican rather than scheduled one in advance? If so, how did that work out? Did you still have to stand in line for tickets? Can you just visit the "church" on your own without tickets? (I obviously have lots more research to do! I visited Rome years ago, but I was on a tour and they took care of everything.)

3-Do you tip on top of the fee for the driver, or is it included?

 

4- Not a romeinlimo question, but has anyone ever done a day trip from Rome to Pompeii? Is that possible?

 

Thanks in advance for answers to my questions!

We had tour from Rome to Pompeii and Napoli as one day tour during land tour few years ago. It's took us full day and it's possible.
