neverenoughtime Posted July 12, 2012 #1 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Can you all please help me to understand what is available to transport two people from the port to the town?!:) Is there a port shuttle -(if so, how much?) Is there a ship shuttle - how much? City bus- ( which route numbers and how much? Where do we get a ticket?) taxi - what is the approx fare? bikes - how much and are there paths or do you ride in the street? Finally, can you walk it?? Thanks!!!

CCJack Posted July 13, 2012 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2012 You cannot walk. I remember the ships docking in an industrial area a long way from the town center. We signed up for our ship's shuttle (Royal Carribean). I think it was $12 per person round trip. It worked well. They drive you to the town center and drop you off at a central shuttle bus stop. If you want to see the mosaics and churches, you then walk another few blocks, but it is the town center and a nice walk. For the return, the shuttle leaves every 20 minutes or so. We purchased shuttle tickets as a shore excursion from our cabin TV after we were on the ship but a day or two before Ravenna. There may also be taxis available, I don't remember. For the return to the ship however, there are security fences, etc. it is possible that the shuttle bus from the ship could get you closer to the ship than a taxi could, I don't remember for sure. I don't remember there being any taxis in the area close to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCJack Posted July 13, 2012 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Also, this is not a good biking area (near the ship) nor do I remember city buses that go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted July 13, 2012 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2012 There is a city bus that goes out to the port, but the service is somewhat limited. The shuttle sounds like a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dln929 Posted July 13, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 13, 2012 The shuttle bus is your best bet. As everyone says, it's too far too walk and it's not through a scenic area either. The cost is minimal and the bus will drop you off in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
