stompy Posted July 19, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hi CC's Does anyone know if there are any good Meddeterrean excursions involving animals? My wife and I figured out we love doing stuff with "aminals" We do the dolphins in the Caribbean, sting rays in Georgetown, I've ridden an elephant, and went swimming with a 6' shark (when the tour guides started throwing chum in the water I got a bit freaked...). We're going to Venice and Barcelona next year and I didn't see any of the RC ship tours that included zoos or animals-might just be that this cruise is all about history and palaces and naked David statues and tossing coins in the Trevi fountain but I'd like to see some animals if there's an easy tour to do and I figured if anyone knew it'd be CC folks...

madforcruising Posted July 19, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2008 In Barcelona the Aquarium comes to my mind http://www.aquariumbcn.com/AQUARIUM/index.php other than that I have to say that actually yes this cruise is more about the city, history, landscape etc. and not so much about animals. Maybe you want to ask on the ports of call boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a zoo in Rome in the Borghese Gardens. (fantastic itinerary, by the way!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scgirlatheart Posted July 19, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Monte Carlo, near Cannes, supposedly also has a beautiful aquarium. We didn't visit it, so I don't know anything about it, but I read good things about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
