Wow! Life suddenly got busy and I didn't have time to come back here. Here are some things to give you an idea of the type of cruisers we are.
For a cruise like this, we are going to learn as much about the history and culture of the area as well as scenic beauty. We never do cruise sponsored tours but hire private tour guides in every port. We like to stay away the overly touristy spots but will do the "must sees" that an area is known for. We prefer to have lunch in a place where the locals eat.
But we don't like tours to be 8 hours long so things that are a long drive from the port aren't of interest to us. Small villages aren't really our interest either. We appreciate natural beauty but want something more than just that.
I guess my original question was more about if this is are only British Isles cruise ever, what are the places we should go to get the most experience of this area of the world.
I appreciate any and all answers!!
