Hi, I am Vanja from Ship to Shop. As a former Crew member for NCL and Royal Caribbean, like you, I was very busy on board with little time off in port!
I always appreciate when I could find a quick and easy crew shuttle, like in Miami.., so that I could do all my shopping and relax with a cup of coffee in a very short time, and get back on board to work on time.
After many years at sea, with my future husband, we decided to settle down in Genova, Italy. When I come to leave in Genova with my family, I was very surprised to discover that there was nothing for crew members!! Long walks for the simple things in different shops. So, we decided to do something about it!
Ship to Shop will take you in about 10 minutes to the biggest shopping mall in town.
Ship to Shop is a young operator, providing a friendly, affordable, quick and hassle free mobility solution to Cruise Ship’s crew members and all kinds of customers in need of reaching the Fiumara shopping mall during Ship calls.
