cruisegal415 Posted September 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2016 We are booking a Rome to Venice 10 day cruise, which will go from Rome up to Livorno, down to Sicily, then to Greece, Montenegro, Slovenia, Croatia then Venice. We've never done this itinerary. Trying to figure out which side of the ship would give us port views, but since we're going around Italy, I'm thinking starboard side would maximize the port views?

janecambridge Posted September 22, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Just done this.some ports are grotty!!! Get up about 3 hrs before docking in Montenegro to see the beautiful 'fjord' as you go through.Stunning,either side,... Not sure what ship you are on but we were on Riviera and so disappointed that there was nowhere at the front of the ship to see where we were going without looking through glass.

Rare LHT28 Posted September 22, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) get a forward facing cabin then it does not matter which way the ship docks ;) You have a 50/50 chance of being on the right side of the ship Edited September 22, 2016 by LHT28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggie.1008 Posted September 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I think the first half of you cruise port side would be best second half of cruise starboard side. Hard to predict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robjame Posted September 22, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2016 get a forward facing cabin then it does not matter which way the ship docks ;) You have a 50/50 chance of being on the right side of the ship I have never been on the Riviera or Marina. When I looked at the deck plans for Riviera, it appeared as if the side of the ship for ports that could take a level gang way was only the port side. Am I wrong? (would not be the first time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

san diego spartan Posted September 22, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I am not sure what you are looking at We are docked on the port side (smaller ship in photo) here on the starboard side We are doing an itinerary very similar (7 nights instead of 10) and wondered the same thing - then we decided it really didn't matter much. I do appreciate the suggestion to get up and watch going through the fjord 3 hours before arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
