Dis / Dreams Viking Sea Cruise around Italy 3/24 - 3/31/2018

Not sure if y'all saw the itinerary for when we should be arriving and departing each port but might help those looking to start some planning like me.

Thanks, I didn't see that. Interesting we don't leave Civitavecchia until 11:00pm and don't get to Naples until 12:00pm. Oddly enough Naples is listed as a 6 hr port, but there are 3 shore excursions over 6 hrs.

I read a disclaimer somewhere that not all excursions would be available, so I'm guessing those 6+ hour ones won't be for that port, which is disappointing. On other sailings that go Venice to Rome, I'm guessing those would be available as there is a full day in Naples on that itinerary.

I know. I wish we would leave a little earlier and get to Naples sooner since we were really interested in some of the longer excursions. Hopefully this is just a tentative schedule that may change. Here is the link to the whole thing that shows the itinerary and the pre and post options they offer. Which apparently they also offer an Ultimate Italy add on for a 3 night in Tuscany, Florence & Siena

Thanks for the link - very helpful

Also am disappointed not more time in Naples as that is one port I am most looking forward to - and concern won't have time to also fit in the Pizza excursion in ;)
 


If anyone is disappointed in the cruise schedule and wants to switch to a different itinerary...let me know and I will work with Viking to make that happen.
 
The three night Tuscany pre-stay has recently been added.

It's been listed for 2017, but hasn't been available for 2018.

Now that it's on the site, I'm guessing it's now ready to go.

The 2017 pricing is $1400 per person.

If interested, let me know and I can get 2018 pricing.
 
I went on YouTube yesterday and although I have not found any videos regarding the Viking Sky there were several about the Viking Star and what I saw was very impressive. One of them was an 18min review of a Caribbean cruise by some guy who apparently cruises all of the time. He gave it a 9/10. His main complaints were lack of good evening entertainment and the depth and temperature of the pools. As I said to Chuck, we may be so tired at night we won't want any entertainment or we can relax in the bar area..... Do I see a trend here.... And just chat. Unfortunately for the gamblers there was no casino on the Star. Don't know if this applies to the Sky.

bar relaxation with an aprel.......hmmmm. this sounds like an excellent idea :)
 
We could arrange our own Italian wine tasting aboard if anyone is interested. I guess we'd need to ok it with Viking. But everyone could bring a bottle purchased in Rome/Florence. We could open them up and have our own little Italian wine mix and mingle some evening. Let me know if there is interest.

Me!:yay: Me!:yay: Me!:yay:

Regarding the nighttime entertainment, I'm not there for that. I'm expecting to be exhausted at the end of the day and sitting quietly with a glass of wine and talking about my day.
