We thought it was mediocre but given the size of the vessel it was the best they could do. The cruise director and her team were very efficient and always present which is nice. It is there that Marco Polo was born and raised and his house is one of the main attractions. A true experience and as the weather was nice and pretty warm everyone was out on deck , party with sangria and music. Although time is limited the little town has some nice spots and shopping opportunities.
Disembarkation is by tender and the town is located high upon a cliff.
You can take the cable car or go on the back of the donkeys . We did the latter and had the most fun of our entire cruise. The children loved it and so did we. Having taken the first taxi coming out on the pier we obviously paid too much but given the limited time we did not start negotiating with the other cabs. The site is nice but you need a good documentation to imagine what it looked like long time ago.
