Creator's Key Takeaways

I have to tell you this tour was quite disappointing. Um, it was a awful lot of walking, very little talking, very little history.

I honestly think I'd be asking for my money back. I mean, it's it was a lot more walking than they advertised.

The headsets didn't work. Just really I mean, it's beautiful. That's that's what I can say.

I would recommend coming. Um, I just don't know if this tour was it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check for promotions that offer journey experiences or destination credits when booking.
โœ“Bring your own water bottle, as the ship does not provide bottled water.
โœ“Verify activity levels for shore excursions, as they may be more strenuous than advertised.
