Rávena is well worth a few nights on its own. The city has some of the finest Byzantine mosaics in the world. The food is great as is the shopping
-
Chivi-Chocolate-Covered-Cherry has been the best one so far!
-
Barcelona may be your favorite port, but some of the citizens don't seem to be too thrilled with all of the tourists and cruise ships. Good video.
-
Morgan, you are just a darling!! I have enjoyed your content for years now and Sunday Sofa Time is something I look forward to every week.
-
I have YouTube premium so I saw no advert! You do a great job, and are a natural on camera. I’ve done tv for 44 years, so I know it when I see it. Keep making them!
-
Ohhh Morgan, your Civitavecchia puns never cease to amuse me!!!
-
Your video on Rome trains is what I used to get to the cruise. Thank you was one your 1st videos I watched years ago. The warning about the ncl epic. Much appreciated this information. Great job 👏
-
I got a Lowe's ad & I watched it so you would get credit. Cruising out of Barcelona in November & I can't wait. This was a very informative video for the newbies.

We just did a Med cruise leaving from Rome ( Civitavecchia) . We flew into Rome 3 days before our cruise. We got a train into Rome then another train into Civitavecchia. It was very easy. We choose a hotel to stay at in the cruise port of Civitavecchia where the Prices were reasonable compared to Rome. We then took the train into Rome for the day , again the train prices were reasonable and wandered around Rome at our leisure. We then went back to our cruise port hotel. It was a stress free time . I was surprised at the number of people who also did this.

When we cruised from Ravenna, we flew into Rome, spent 2 nights there, took the train to Ravenna and spent a night there, and arranged private transfer to the port. Ravenna was charming, and I would have loved another night there. We took the train back to Rome upon disembarkation, and spent another night there before we flew home.
-
awesome information, thank you! and yes, your commercial break was spot on - very slick :) Ravenna is same deal as Trieste/Venice!!! My cruise ends there and it's a heck ton of trouble to get to venice and then to our flight home.

From Athens to Piraeus, it was 30 minutes or so by car service. Not a big deal or expense. We loved spending time in Athens beforehand.
-
Thank you! This was super helpful!

Really appreciated your video about Rome/Civitavecchia Watched it a couple of times. We decided to opt to take a Lemo from our hotel to cruise port. Our driver took us directly to where he u loaded our bags & then our bags went directly to the ship people. So easy. We heard several stories of difficulty trying to get to the correct cruise as the port is huge. Some people took the train to Civitiavecchia the day before & stayed in a hotel overnight. Taxied to the ship the next morning. That sounded nice too. It’s just way more confusing than any other cruise port we’ve ever sailed into or out of.

Great topic to cover. Well done!
-
Love your informative videos. You always make me smile 😃
-
We took a cruise where we had a choice of embarking in either Civitavecchia or Barcelona. We actually chose Civitavecchia because we thought Barcelona was easier to do via cruise ship stop. We felt we needed more to do Rome than you have allotted in a cruise ship stop.

We got an Allianz Travel Insurance ad - thanks for the helpful information.
-
Thanks for the great insight on ports! Though I don't have a cruise in the Med scheduled yet will file this away as it is definitely on the bucket list. The adv was perfectly places and was for Princess Cruises so actually relavent to me for once.

Very helpful and on time! Thanks
