Carnival Legend - Rome

@firefly333 I booked almost all of my excursions/tours through TripAdvisor way ahead of time. They all turned out great and we got back to the ship with time to spare. Pull up the TripAdvisor site, search for the port and click on Ports of Call for that port. I found that TripAdvisor tours were usually with fewer people, less expensive than cruise excursions and cancellation could be done the day before with no penalty. Plus there would be many more reviews to read compared to ship excursions and they would be current.

Im excited for you!! Planning a trip like this is half of the fun👍😁

I have finished booking hotels, excursions in rome and flight home. 2 are thru viator and 1 thru trip advisor. Which seems to be the same thing. 2 I clicked pay later but cant get tickets until I pay, the other is nonrefundable and I meet someone somewhere and exchange the voucher they sent to print for tickets. The one I cant refund is the skip the line sisteen chappel ticket. Seems confusing the whole ticketing thing.

 

For the ports I'll decide when I see what royal offers. Easier. All these different ways to get tickets idk. I'll decide later. I got a lot of ports. The 13 day ta goes to Barcelona, then the leg with greece and Italy, maybe Turkey. Havent sorted those yet, waiting on royal. That's a lot of ports. 

 

I just moved and still things to do. Lol I no showed to my may cruise so that's 2 I no showed for since my mom passed. Been kinda overwhelmed.
