All shore excursion tours are private therefore can be custom made. So if you’d like to combine more than one place or see just one, we will give you an outline of the tour, the various possibilities and our best advice to help you see and enjoy the most. Our drivers are not guides, therefore aren’t required to know all detailed information on the history of the cities and monuments and cannot accompany you round the sites on foot . They will pick you up at the dock and they will be at your disposal for the whole excursion. They will advice you on what to visit and where to eat giving you enough time to discover the place and organize your return trip. Therefore you can choose to have an additional service which is that of a Tour Leader or Tour Guide, who both require two distinctive and separate licenses: The Tour Guide is a licensed qualified expert who can give specific information on history, art, architecture and culture of the sites (The tour guide has to obtain a license for each city and it’s province). The Tour Leader is with you throughout the whole shore excursion and leads the group, giving them general information on the countries and cities/towns visited on the vehicle. They will help you with general guidance around a city/village, and give you information on the place visited on the bus, but they are not required to have specific knowledge on the sites. They are not allowed to give a guided tour of the place Tour prices don’t include meals or entrance fees. If you’d like to visit a specific Museum it’s best if you pre-book as the most famous ones usually have very long lines and would waste most of your precious time. We’re here to help you make the most of your stay so don’t hesitate to ask for help and advice! The following tours are a good way to see the most famous places so you can decide to come back and see them more in depth. So although you might feel like it is too much to see in one day, just remember that this is a taste of the many beauties this area offers.
