  1. I believe you can select that time for the Acropolis when you buy the combo ticket. Then visit the other sights when you wish. Watch the You Tube video that someone posted above.
  2. With a combined ticket, do you have to book a separate time for each attraction at the time of booking?
  3. A full day tour to Delphi would involve about how many hours on the bus?
  4. We also have 3 days pre cruise in May. We will probably stay in Athens since there is so much to see in the city. Thinking about a food tour but otherwise mostly explore on our own. We will have lots of tours on our cruise.
  5. Fortunately, tickets for the Acropolis Museum are available for farther than the current month. They are also issued by time.
  6. Hollyann: I was looking at George’s Taxi tours, but it looks like they charge for the group, not per person. We are a group of 2, so I wouldn’t want to get stuck paying for a group. How did you book the tour?
  7. Can you buy the Acropolis tickets at the Acropolis Museum?
  8. We stayed in Bayswater which is on the north side of Hyde Park. A little out of the way, but possibly a little less pricey. Many small hotels, restaurants, and convenient tube station at Lancaster Gate. Great for a morning run or walk in Hyde Park.
  9. Viking has changed our hotel from the Splendid Hotel to the Grand Hotel Majestic on Lake Maggiore. Any comments on this change?
  10. Our Canterbury included tour only allowed for a few minutes of free time in the town. It’s about a 15 minute bus ride from Dover, so you need to stay with the guide. It was one of the better included tours.
  11. In My Viking Journey, select Account/Request Invoice. Viking will send you several PDF’s including the likely excursions for your cruise.
  12. Thanks Blairsville Girl. That sounds great but DW says “No Way”..lol
  13. Thanks for all the great tips. We have 2 months until our excursion sign up day.
  14. Our May, Athens to Venice Adriatic cruise includes ports at Olympia, Corfu, Kotor, Dubrovnik, and Split. What excursions in these ports (included or optional) did you particularly like (or dislike)? Thanks !!!
  15. Definitely check before boarding, but it is disabled after boarding. Does Viking Voyager show excursion availability onboard?
  16. Do previously Sold Out excursions ever become available during the cruise? If so, can you book them up to the day of?
  17. Do other cruise lines also discriminate by cabin category in selecting excursions?
  18. Any included tours that can be skipped in favor of an optional tour?
  19. Any rooftop restaurants in the Koukaki district?
  20. I only looked at the direct hotel website, (marblehouse.gr) and it requests that you pay in cash, but they still need a credit card number to guaranty the reservation. Maybe it’s different if using a third party booking site. I always book directly.
  21. Marble House requires cash payments. Is this typical of small hotels in Athens?
  22. Is it typical for small hotels in Athens to require payment in cash?
  23. Is anyone familiar with the Marble House in Athens? Friend recommended. Thoughts?
  24. Wow, Athens Gate is already booked for our May 2024 Athens to Venice cruise. Does anyone know the Marble House?
