Has anyone ever used the company ShoreTourGuides?
I’m looking for a private tour from the port of Taranto, Italy and ToursbyLocals guides were all booked. I found ShoreTourGuides in a Google search, but don’t know anything about the company. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thx!

There are cruise ship forums where you may be more likely to get experienced cruise opinions.

Just be aware that if you are on an excursion through the ship, and are late getting back, the ship will wait. Not so if you are on your own or with a private tour company. Several times on different cruises (including a stop in Naples) we were stuck in traffic but the ship waited for the group. On the other hand we've seen people running along the pier as the ship was pulling away. Our rule of thumb is that it's ok to do something on our own if we will be close enough to the port to get back on foot if traffic or mechanical problems arise. Just food for thought.
