The meeting point was confusing. Ticket said 1A but we kept moving to different places. Since we do not speak Italian, this was especially hard for us.

The only issue we had was when we arrived at the pier it was confusing as there are many tours leaving at the same time. Tour was lovely and our guide was great.
