I checked the website tour information as I have already faxed in our requests for two weeks and found that there are no tours listed for Venice on embarcation day or Rome where the first week ends. Both ports have tours offered which we requested, an evening gondola ride, etc in Venice (ship doesn't sail until noon the next day) and a Rome tour for those staying on the ship and people leaving who want that tour before going to their post-cruise hotel. Both tours were in our fax information and are still listed in the cruise excursions area of the website.
SO....for future cruisers, check this more carefully before you use it as your final request form.
