Who all is staying at the Grand Bretagne? I am in the process of coordinating a van transfer to the ship on the 3rd, my taxi guy can do a van that will hold up to 12 with luggage and price for the van is 100euros, plus gratuity of course. Private taxi is about 35 euros for two.
Right now we have 7 (us, Mondaes, Burnsides and Olivia) and Spiros says he can get two vans if needed.
So if you are interested let me know. Six minimum per van makes the cost 32 euros per couple, so even if we don't fill two vans completely, its still a good deal.
Just fyi, I am scheduling pick up at noon, so those of us who are at the GB want to can walk over and see the changing of the guard at the Presidential Palace at 10:45 which lasts about 1/2 hour.

So we now have one full van. Anyone else? Am checking with Spiros to see if he can accommodate those at other hotels nearby, so anyone staying elsewhere let me know. If he can't pick up elsewhere, getting to the GB might be necessary.

JoAnn, we've got our transfers covered - but thanks anyway!
I was glad to book our excursions today. It feels like we're one step closer. Six months....

OK update on the transfer.
At this point we have 15 confirmed, which will mean 2 vans, 7 in one and 8 in the other. The van with eight will cost 26 euros plus tip per couple and the van with 7 will cost aprox 30 euros plus tip per couple.
List of those confirmed: Frank and JoAnn Tony and Joanna Brad and Leslie Olivia Peggy and Jerry Ralph and Carol Wayne and Charlotte (Amazon Hotel) Betty and Al (Amazon Hotel)
Before I email Spiros with this, is everyone ok with the price? We could pick up another couple or two, and if there is anyone else I have missed, please let me know, I'm sure I can add as needed till both vans are full.
