It was a busy three days but we made it to three places in Italy! Which of these Italian cites would you visit or re-visit? Florence/Pisa, Rome, or Naples/Capri? 🇮🇹
Great video. Nice to see you and Kevin having a awesome avenue in Italy. We've added the underground Colosseum tour to our bucket list and the cruise is already on it. Love you guys. See you in the next one. Your friend in Pennsylvania -SARGE 🇺🇸
That's awesome, Sarge! We loved the underground tour experience - be sure to book EARLY. I can't wait to hear about your experience 😊
I love the music when you were at the train station it was suspenseful.
The way we RAN 🏃🏾♀️ to the train… it was quite a dramatic moment!
Can you please make a vid showing you getting on and off the ship/tender boats? I am nervous they will take up most of our time. Thank you :)
Hey Zhane! Unfortunately I don’t have a lot of footage showing me getting in or off the boat 😬 there is a security screening that takes place so I can’t film parts of it, but thankfully all the ports we stopped at didn’t require a tender boat 🚤
10:10 bookmark for myself. Thanks
Awesome, thanks KC!
the smaller ship you board the ( usually) closer you will be to destination
I am going on there at the end of September to the beginning of October. We will be going on this tour to Florence and Pisa. We will be spending two days in Rome before going on our cruise. We are going to Sorrento and Pompeii from Naples.
I hope you have an amazing time, Dawne! Make sure there is plenty of space on your camera/phone because the scenery is photo worthy 😍

when you speak italian french spanish german it goes deeper than only speaking english also teochew hokkien cantonese in southeast asia chinatowns
I was stressed watching you get back to Tremia station!
I hear you - never in my life have I ran a 200 meter dash so fast and with such focus and intensity! 🏃🏾♀️💨 Haha, never again!
@@FrolicAndCourage it’s a good story though! 😂
Great video - we are taking the very same cruise in early June. QUESTION - when you return to the ship in ports of call are you allowed to bring on SEALED NON-ALCOHLOIC beverages such as bottled water, juice or soda? Thank you!
You’re taking the same cruise in early June? How exciting, Rick!
You bring up a very good question 🤔 The Guest Health, Safety, Conduct policy states you can bring sealed non-alcoholic beverages (not to exceed twelve, 17oz cans/bottles) as carry-on items on embarkation day, but is vague on whether or not you can bring sealed non alcoholic beverages specifically from ports of call. In the Alcohol section, it says “Security personnel may inspect containers (including water bottles, soda bottles…) at any time…” In some cruisers’ experience, they stated they were allowed to bring those items onboard from a port while others said they had to toss them. I’d call Royal’s guest services line for the final answer or, just in case, drink the non-alcoholic beverages before you get onboard from a port to not worry about it 😊
Thank you for this playlist. My wife and I just booked our 1st cruise for our 1st anniversary and are doing this same port itinerary. We are now debating which excursions to do and if we should disregard the cost of the big ones because YOLO or try and explore on our own.
Thanks for watching Steven and happy early anniversary! Congratulations on your first year 🎉 My husband and I debated the exact same thing - to explore on our own, go with the cruise line excursion, or book through a reputable company (since we travel often and are comfy with doing so). What are you both most excited to see??
Did you take the excursion or DIY ?
@@daisycaunan We did all our excursions through Royal. We are too anxious to risk being pier runners!
no milano( genova portofino)? how long were commutes? please make sure you know future passengers

Hello! Thanks for these videos! My husband and I are going on the same cruise this May. For the Amalfi coast excursion, which cities did you visit? There is one currently available for Capri, Sorrento, and Pompeii. I was wondering if yours was similar.
Hey Elaine! Thanks for watching 😊 you nailed it - we went to Capri, Sorrento, and Pompeii. It was the “Amalfi Coast & Pompeii by Land and Sea” excursion.
@@FrolicAndCouragedid you get to stop and walk around positano or was it just a quick drive by?
Hello
Great and informative videos!!
You mentioned you did videos for each city in Italy but I “m having problems finding them can you please share the link?
Sure, no problem. They are in my Planning a Trip to Italy Playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLl0Gx5WgtQ14pErR5zccT0W584W6UbAE7.html
Thank so very much for your videos.
New subscriber! Who did you book excursions through
Woohoo, thanks for joining the F&C family! 😁🍾👏🏽 I booked these excursions through Royal
What excursion did you take in Florence/Pisa? We are going in October and was watching your blogs
Hey Jeffery, thanks for watching! We went on the "Best of Florence & Pisa" excursion because it gave us the most value for what we were looking for...although I must admit we had a hard time trying to narrow down what we wanted to see because Italy has so much to offer! What excursions are you considering?
@@FrolicAndCourage that is the one we are leaning towards also. I think it will cover the most in the amount of time giving. What about the port in Naples? She really wants to see the Amalfi cost. What did y’all do?
That was our rationale - I’ve been to Florence before but my hun has not, so he really enjoyed seeing all the sights for himself 😊 In Naples we did the “Amalfi Coast & Pompeii by Land and Sea” excursion.
What time did y’all get off the ship while visiting Rome? What time did you have to be back on board as well, I believe our cruise in October says we are there 7am to 8pm and we are trying to pre plan what we can accomplish.
Thanks jeff
Hey Jeff - good move pre-planning before you get onboard 👏🏽 The schedule in Rome was from 7am-8pm.
Breaking it down, the boat technically arrived around 6am (they have to dock and get prepared), were able to get off the ship around 7am. Don’t quote me on this, but I believe we had to return around 7:15pm. The cruise staff will communicate the time on the television (cruise news channel), through the security staff, and through the daily planner (received the night before). General rule is to plan to return at least 30min before (some prefer 1-2hrs before to be extra safe). If you’re taking an excursion through the cruise line that includes transportation, there will be a set time and place to return to the bus that will take you back (and they will wait if it’s late.) If you are traveling on your own…keep good track of the time!
@@FrolicAndCourage Do you have to book an excursion with the ship to get priority disembarkation? What if you go on your own without booking an excursion with the cruise ship? What time realistically do you think we can get out of the ship in Rome?
Hey TofuGurl! It all depends on what time the ship reaches the port. They will announce the disembarkation time on your cruise planner (if you’re cruising with Royal) and on the cruise channel. Realistically, ours was around 8 or 9am but nobody can leave until the ship is properly docked and cleared by the port authorities.
what’s the name of the Amalfi excursion? and would you recommend it for ppl who would love to explore the shops of Positano and Amalfi as i’m aware they don’t offer much time for shopping
Hey Radeef! We went on the “Amalfi Coast & Pompeii by Land and Sea” excursion booked through Royal Caribbean cruise planner. I wouldn’t recommend it for people who want to explore shops because we didn’t quite have enough time for shopping, but we did have a lot of time at Pompeii (totally worth spending the time at Pompeii!)
@@FrolicAndCourage good to know! do you remember at what time the excursion started and ended?
@rafeefhalawani4318 I believe it started early in the morning - around 7:30/8am and lasted until an hour or two before boarding.
