Re: Pre-Tour Recommended Activities for Venice and Dalmatian Coast
I'd like to thank everyone who gave their input about visiting the Jewish Ghetto in Venice. We are back from our trip (which was great) and did visit the Ghetto. The museum is currently under renovation, so there was less to see. For sure one can visit the area and the synagogues without a guide, and there are also inexpensive group tours from the likes of Viator, so there is no need to pay for an expensive private guide. There is a public waterbus stop nearby, and it is also walkable, albeit a long walk, from the Marriot hotel's shuttle drop off. Thanks again - your assistance as always is appreciated.

Don’t think we still have any of those anymore. Mr. B takes charge of paperwork thank goodness. Now collecting them from everyone else, oh dear! We are having a final family get together next weekend before our trip. Have waited for this for so very long and now the time is finally going fast.

Her flamenco performance on the bus was an unexpected treat.

kfnknfzk - Is this the Patricia that you are referring to? If so, then I totally agree with you. We did the S&P tour in 2014.
Re: Spain & Portugal Small Group October 2024
I took this tour in 2015 and thought it was so good, I took the Northern Paradors tour in 2016. Every day it just seemed that we were seeing incredible attractions and I equally enjoyed the "quiet" days. Wish I could say, "I'll see you in October" but know you will have a wonderful time.
Re: Review
The Montmartre steps that killed me were coming out of the Metro. Find the elevator!

Re: Review
I didn't have much of a chance to speak with Patricia since we always seemed to be assigned to another director, but when we did converse she was always friendly and courteous. I'm glad you enjoyed the cruise. Safe travels home, mfrancis.
For those who might wish to visit Montmartre on their own and avoid steps, consider the trolley/train excursion. The hotel concierge can help with arrangements.

My husband and I are going on Best of Ireland August 27-September 9. Anyone else signed up for that tour?
Re: Review
Very nice and informative critique. It brought back wonderful memories of our Seine cruise (different tour) last year. Was Patricia by chance from Hungary?
