Another video said there's a Coke dispenser that you can choose many drinks from~~ but on that you have to have the drink package. Possible you could just order one, and then pay with your card for that. The waitress will come around.
Although common on cruise ships of this class, the cabin layout isn't the most practical. It's actually inconvenient for room service trays. Additionally, the small table from the balcony can be used. (Even though we adapted easily, we gave up some habits on this cruise.) Have a great time onboard! Thank you for watching!
A very helpful video. Thank you. Question about "Bramante" shuttle bus stop behind Fort Michelangelo: Do the busses behind Fort Michelangelo also have signs in front that show the ship they go to? Or does one bus take you to all of the ships in the main (4-ship) area, with passengers getting off when the bus arrives at their ship? Is there any advantage in going to Largo della Pace, instead?
Hi! There is no difference in the size of the beds, including the space underneath, I had 30 inch suitcases, they fit well. But, access is only done under the "footboard", and the space in front of the beds is rather small (if they are handled often, it becomes frustrating - I say this because in our case the storage space in the cupboards was not enough so that the "storage" under the bed had to be accessed all the time). And on the carpet, in front of the beds, things gradually accumulate, shoes, shopping bags, water packs and many others... Sorry for the long answer, I hope it helps. Thank you for watching!
Hello! I don't have a clear confirmation for 2024, but in previous years (2023, 2022, '19, '18 etc) the train platform for Civitavecchia remained the same. However, maybe we will get an answer from someone who traveled this year. Thank you very much for watching! (besides this clip from 2019, I posted another updated one with more details, please check that one too)
Hi happy to see your videos, I have a question about when you but the tickets I saw Civitavecchia and Civitavecchia(Tutte Le Stazioni),is it different stations or same? Did we stop at Roma Trastevere and change other trains
Was in Civitavecchia train station a few years ago, at that time it was impossible to understand public announcements made over the PA system. Even locals could not understand the mush of sound that came out.
We arrive the Civitavecchia station with the 6 Euro bus ticket and stood in the sun for 2 hours waiting for the bus. Only bus is exclusive for Norwegian and MSC every 45 minutes. There is no bus to the port entrance. Most people give up by walking to the gate for 30 minutes 0.8 miles or take a taxi. Even at the gate, we have to wait another 45 minutes go get transported inside the port to a tent 0.4 miles from berth 12e. We just finished joining a cruise from Rome ( Civitavecchia) in August 2023. Do not buy the 6 Euro bus ticket to the port bus, there is no bus take you to the gate and there is no one you can ask questions. We stood in the hot sun for 2 hours and no bus. The white bus comes every 40 minutes and only go the Norwegian and MSC ships. Most people have to walk the 0.8 miles with luggage to the gate or share a high price taxi for the 10 minute ride to the gate. At the gate, you have to wait another 45 minutes to board a bus to your ship. What a mess.
Excellent detailed video! Just what I was looking for. Thank you for assisting me in making up my mind on where to stay at CPH Airport. Your video was very helpful indeed. Thanks again!
Hi! Provence is the name of the region in the South of France that also includes the city of Marseille (and the port called Marseille Provence Cruise Terminal). Do you mean Aix-en-Provence?
Hi. Why are there more than one Civitavecchia on the panel to choose. Why did you chose the one you did. And it wasn’t clear which train is the better one with only 45 min. I tried to listen to it several times but I couldn’t understand it. You were either speaking too fast and your accent , I couldn’t understand. Please help. Thx.
Hi! The name of the fastest train (45'-47') is Frecciabianca. It is the most comfortable but also the most expensive - the "good" tickets are bought some time in advance, online; often these "good" tickets are sold out. The other trains are "Regionale" (very frequent but it is the slowest and cheapest; it stops at all stations) and "Intercity" (not so frequent, it takes about 48 minutes and the quality is between the two above). The chosen train is related to several factors (such as price or comfort). But the most important factor is time. I know that when I arrive at the station I find at least one available train. All these are available on the official website of the Italian Railway Company. It is available in English. Link: www.trenitalia.com/en.html Don't worry, everything is very easy. Remember to stamp the ticket on the platform (if it is bought at the station). If it is bought online, stamping is not necessary. Have a great time and a safe trip!
Thanks for the sub! Same here. I just discovered your channel, it seems to be full of useful information as I like it so I will definitely check it out.
I went on this ship last July. I originally had a studio, but got an upgrade to an aft cabin #11320. It was awesome, but there were some drawbacks. The shower was very small, but doable. Same with the separate toilet. The cabin sink was at a very odd area outside of the shower. The worst part about the cabin was being vibrated out of bed when the ship was docking. The noise was unbelievable. The views were spaectacular. I will never forget looking out at Mount Vesuvius while docked in Naples. The cruise was really good. Food was also good. Had the best ever steak in Cagney's. I will be going back!!!
Thanks for sharing! Sounds like you had a great time. Epic is my second favorite cruise ship, I have many pleasant memories so I relate to everything you wrote. But along the way, I got used to it. I don't mind the noise from AFT, I agree that it is like a "natural" clock alarm. All in all, it becomes like an irresistible pleasure and when I come back, I always enjoy it like on the first cruise.
I'm sorry for this. I can try to help you. If you have questions about what is not clear. I have experienced this route many times, so I might have some useful information. Just ask. Thank you for watching!
