Is This Trip Right For You?
This tour is partially escorted with independent time allotted in select destinations that allow the flexibility to explore on your own.  Affordable optional sightseeing excursions are available to enhance your vacation. The cruise portion is a leisurely-paced program, and affordable optional shore excursions are available locally on board the cruise for purchase. This program is moderately active. Walking is done over cobbled streets, uneven surfaces, stairs, steps, and significant slopes. Expect most of the sightseeing to require two to three hours of walking. Many historical cities have specific driving regulations, with set drop off and pick up points, that result in extra walking to and from the sights.  For more information, click here.
