We are on this cruise as well. DH, DS (25) and myself. We did this same cruise in 2014 and are very excited to go back. Last time we flew in the day of departure which was a mistake as we were very tired and it was unseasonably hot (104 degrees in Florence). This time we are flying in on Wednesday night and staying for 2 nights at the Hotel Colon which is where we stayed one night post cruise last time.
We will arrange for Barcelona Day Tours to pick us up at the airport and take us to Montserrat then the hotel. On Thursday I think that we will take a day trip to Costa Brava and Girona. Last trip we had Barcelona Day tours pick us up at the ship and we did a 1/2 day tour of Barcelona. That evening we took a food tour of the gothic quarter with Barcelona Taste. I highly recommend both companies.
Last trip we did all Disney excursions and will do all but Villefrance with Disney again. We are going to do the 4x4 Vesuvius hike, wine tasting and Pompei, St. Peter's and the Sistine Chapel, and Florence on your own. These are all pretty much repeat excursions except that we didn't go to Vesuvius or see the Sistine chapel last time. We also went on the Eze and Nice wine tasting excursion last time.
Please let me know if anyone has any questions.
