Good to Know

  • Shoes are not worn on the travertines, so bring a pair that slips on and off easily
  • Pack a swimsuit if you want the option of the paid Cleopatra Pool
  • Shade is scarce: a hat, sunglasses and high-factor sunscreen are essential
  • The total driving distance is long — a light wrap or neck pillow helps you nap on board
