Before you walk off the ship

• Ask at the gangway or check the app for the berth: in large ports the walk depends on the terminal.
• Some ports run a short shuttle bus to the port gate — it is part of the route, not an excursion.
• Wear comfortable shoes: old towns mean cobblestones and steps.
• Count back from the all-aboard time, not from departure, and keep a reserve of 30 minutes.

How the club fits in

In the club's search you see each cruise's ports, so you can look for itineraries with the ports that suit you. Not every cruise line can be booked through the club: check the specific sailing. More about booking with points.

General information compiled from our port guides; berths, tender use, walking times and access change by ship, season and day. Check your ship's daily programme. Reislite is an independent information site run by partners, not a website of inCruises.
