What to Expect

Activity Level

Takes into consideration the physical requirements for each of the trips, walking, hiking, climbing in and out of safari vehicles etc.
           Moderate

Travelers should be able to climb 60 stairs consecutively, plus walk at least 3 miles over some steep slopes and loose or uneven surfaces without difficulty. Walks typically last for 3 or more hours at a time. Altitude can range from 5,000 to 7,000 feet.

Pacing

Takes into consideration the length of bus rides, flights, number of destinations in the number of days
           Moderately Easy

Moderately paced, and may include some early morning hotel departures, one or two on-tour flights, and extended motorcoach travel.

PACING
  • This adventure is moderately paced
  • We spend 10 nights cruising aboard the Ocean Explorer, nights in Boston at the Westin Copley Place, and 2 nights in Montréal at the Sofitel Montréal Golden Mile Hotel
  • We spend a total of 10 days onboard the ship, while exploring historic, cultural, and natural sites, mostly on half-day tours that conclude by lunchtime

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS
  • This is a tour for moderately active travelers. There are several walking tours throughout
  • Sightseeing takes place on air-conditioned/heated buses with guides
  • Footing can be uneven or challenging in some of the historic sites and coastal settings we visit. The cobbled streets of medieval Old Towns will also require care
  • On at least one occasion, travelers must be able to climb in and out of a small boat for an excursion

TERRAIN & TRANSPORTATION
  • Most shore excursions, especially those in historic cities and in coastal settings, require walking on uneven terrain
  • Shore excursions utilize air-conditioned shuttles or buses. During the hotel-based land portion of this trip, a walking tour might leave directly from the hotel, or it too might utilize air-conditioned shuttles or buses

CLIMATE
  • Due to the climate, we advise you to pack sunscreen and moisturizer (in the amounts permitted by TSA regulations), and bring a hat and sunglasses as well. If you’re traveling in summer, be sure to bring very cool cotton or linen clothing
  • Since the weather is unpredictable, please check weather sites online for 10-day forecasts closer to your departure date to plan your packing accordingly

Please Note: Ocean cruising is not the same experience as river cruising; as such, you may experience fluctuating tides and weather patterns that may involve some rocking of your vessel. Itineraries will include all activities as planned except in extreme cases that can’t be controlled by your shipboard crew. Day-by-day itineraries are preliminary and therefore subject to change. If changes occur while on tour, you will be notified by your Cruise Director or regional expert.
