Re: Help with extra tour options in Rome
We did several tours with LIV Tours. Love them, small groups, great colosseum early tour. Followed that with Domus Area on our own. Well worth it and short walk from colosseum.
Re: Received Luggage Tags
My daughter and daughter in law both sponsored students for a year at the school we visited. I took soccer balls and a pump. My husband and I prioritize donating to FAME hospital each year near Karatu, we have visited twice. Last year when we visited we could not believe the expansion in services. It’s rewarding to see.

Re: Visa for Namibia
If I were you, I would stay an extra night at Omaanda and let them arrange a game drive for you. It is a stunning resort.
Re: Feb 2025 tour comments
Hi Mary. I cannot comment on the Belmond. We heard it was a bit of a hassle getting into the Brazil side from the airport , which is on the Argentina side. We were happy we were at the Melia because the hotel is actually in the park. It is a beautiful hotel.Two nights there is definitely enough. We actually only spent one night : we took an early plane to get there and a late plane back to Buenos Aires the next evening. Yes , we did spend an extra night back in Buenos Aires at the Sofitel after Iguazu. It worked out well because they held our luggage while we were in Iguazu. Our planes back to the US were in the evening so we had another day to explore Buenos Aires. If you have specific questions , you can certainly PM me.

Wondering what to bring, to wear, to consider... doing the Silver Muse this August, 2025. Any suggestions?
Re: Vaccines for Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda safari
Check with your primary care doctor or a travel doctor familiar with Africa trips. Along with yellow fever, I got a typhoid, polio and one other. Each person is different based on what vaccines they have had and what might need to be boosted.
Re: Received Luggage Tags

Re: Tables for two and dining questions
This is really not that difficult. Yes, there are few tables for two, and generally speaking they don’t ‘reserve’ them. But, if you request to dine as a ‘couple’ they will seat you as a couple even if it is a table for rourl. They do not make you dine with other guests if you don’t want to dine with other guests. All that being said, we often travel as a party of six, and they normally reserve a large table for us.
