Clancampbell Posted September 9, 2016 #26 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Just saw the post about 'high powered hair straighteners' not working. I have no idea if thats a concern for you but my GHDs worked fine in the euro plug! Thank god for that. DW was coming out in a sweat wondering how she would cope without them!

fshagan Posted September 9, 2016 #27 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Thank you to everyone for your replies. We are sailing to Italy too' date=' what company have you booked your excursion with please? I also thought NCL's trips were really expensive in comparison to other companies.[/quote'] We did ours through RomeInLimo.com ... we booked an 8 person van in Florence / Pisa, Rome, and Naples for the two of us, and I posted an offer that anyone could join us for 1/8th the cost (subject to my discretion ... had to be able to walk without assistance, etc.) We quickly got 6 additional people. I think my pricing scheme worked out well ... saying "split it equally between us" would make people think twice about being the first additional couple, but getting a private tour for the same cost as the NCL big bus tours was a no brainer. RomeInLimo suggested pre-buying tickets to see the Vatican Museum in Rome and recommended a tour guide, and both were well worth the cost. We also had a guide in Pompei. The cost broke down to just over / under the excursion prices for the big bus tours and we had a much better experience (I hate those buses).
