I am wondering if all of your cruises drop passengers off at a port and pick them up from the next port, with the expectation that you must take a tour that allows for this.

For all of our river cruises that we sell ships dock in the port and you have couple of hours (sometimes day or two) to explore ports before the ship goes to the next port of call. Most of our river cruise operators offer shore excursion packages and you have a certified English speaking guide that takes you around. In case you want to stroll around the ports on your own, that is also possible.

Truly marvelous, especially in the Douro, followed by visits to Porto and a hotel overlooking the Douro.

The trip was cancelled by CroisiEurope and they kept my funds. TourRadar did a Donald Trump ‘I take no responsibility’ and I had a choice to choose another trip by end of December or lose my entire tour costs. Not easy to just pick another date and another trip in Europe from Canada. It’s too bad one cannot give out negative stars as this group is certainly in the ‘Black Hole’ category!!! Buyer beware is too strong a warning!Show more
