Cruise Deals
Cruises are a great method of travel because they cover your accommodations, meals, and transportation. When you break down how much you would normally spend on lodging, food, and transfers, you just might find that a cruise is the more affordable option. You may not have as much time in a given destination as you'd like, but it's a great way to get a sampling of a variety of places you may want to go back to and further discover! Check out these websites to find the best cruise deals!
Excursion Companies - Europe
Pretty much every cruise line out there offers endless options for shore excursions ranging in price and activity level. Truth be told, we prefer to book private shore excursions when we cruise because we can typically get a better price and a more personalized experience. There is a little bit of risk involved, in that if the private tour company gets you back to the ship late, you are responsible for making your way to the next port of call, whereas if you book with the ship directly, they will hold the boat for you. We used the following two companies during European cruises and couldn't have been more pleased. Use the Roll Call feature on Cruise Critic to find other cruisers on your ship interested in sharing the private tour with you. This not only brings the per person cost down, but allows you to meet fellow cruisers before you ship sets sail!
ROME IN LIMO
Rome in Limo specializes in tailor-made tours throughout Italy. Also, perfect for private/group shore excursions with a personal touch!
JOE BANANA LIMOS
Joe Banana Limos provides shore excursions, local tours and private transfers throughout Italy. Great for private cruise ship excursions.
