Most cruises offer excursions to suit all types, from a city tour of Barcelona to see Gaudi's architecture (about £40), to a boat ride from Sorrento to Capri (about £70), to a tour of the Acropolis and other treasures in Athens (about £50), to a tour of Rome - from the port of Civitavecchia - including the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel (about £150). You should plan your activities to suit your interests and fitness levels. Don't try to do too much and tire yourselves out. Note that English-speaking guides in many European countries must be fully government licensed. Most excursions require some walking. It is also simple (and cheaper) to go ashore and explore yourself, especially if you have been to a destination before. [4]
