SpicyCherry Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 We are considering an 12 Night itinerary on Infinity in November 2025. The cruise departs from Athens and concludes in Barcelona. Are there shore excursions available in Athens prior to departing, perhaps in the days prior or the day of even as well as excursions in Barcelona after debarkation? Or is it best to book an independent tour? Anybody know??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasticbrain Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 There are loads of things to do both places. I would check Tripadvisor/Viator. When it comes to Barcelona some of my favourites are: Park Guell Tibidabo mountain The Beach The zoo and citadel park SpicyCherry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMOKEY0202 Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 Plenty of independent tours. Barcelona there is Spain Day tours and there is hop on hop off bus. Athens has options as well with independent and hop on hop off bus. You will find better options and cheaper than thru cruise line.

That I do not know, but I doubt they offer anything precruise. They will probably offer a airport drip off the day of debarkation, but not if you are staying longer is my guess. This is only based on my experience with Royal SpicyCherry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great!! A lot of people from the US tend to arrive in the departure city early and plan to stay in the city of disembarkation a few days so it would make sense.

Post cruise don't remember any overnight stays, just the usual airport drop off options. SpicyCherry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our TA booked Hotel Colon for us for 2 nights pre-cruise. Including airport transfer, it was about 500 US in Oct 22. It's on the plaza by the cathedral.
