crotone, italy - DaY 8 - March 13, 2023

After a long day of slowly cruising around the end of ”the boot” of Italy, we ended up in the town of Crotone, Italy. Due to the pandemic, the Italian government is still not certifying new tour guides…so Viking got creative in Crotone. The town folk have stations setup and give out snacks and give talks - it was an interesting approach. We were dropped off by bus in the city center and then given a map of suggested routes around the town. Crotone is a fairly small town full of very small streets. We enjoyed our walk.

We went to Manfredi’s for dinner - it is a special Italian eating venue on the ship. We really loved Manfredi’s and ended up eating there several times!
