COMPTE RENDU : Iles et terres du soleil costa mediterranea du 29/10/11
Cette croisiere etait pour nous la premiere a bord de costa . Je commencerai donc ce compte rendu par les quelques differences entre MSC et COSTA . Tout dabord l embarquement: A l arrive au port lorsque vous deposez vos bagages on vous attribu un N° de groupe, qui correspond a l ordre d embarquement . Vous vous presente au check in . On verifie vos document et on vous demande d attendre (assis confortablement 😉) que votre N° soit appele au micro . Lorsque c est votre tour un agent de securite prend vos documents et vous prend en photo . Arrive dans le bateau une hotesse indique au groupe , de rejoindre sa cabine (seul ! 🤪)et qu il trouvera a l interieur sa carte costa . Dans la cabine vous attend votre carte , le today ainsi qu une explication pour enregistre votre carte de credit (par le moyen de borne a l interieur du bateau ) . A vrai dire j ai trouver cette embarquement froid , mais tres rapide et confortable . Pas de longues files d attente debout comme sur MSC . Quelque difference a bord : Chose tres appreciable pour le porte monnaie, de l eau en carafe est possible lors des repas . Pas d obligation d acheter des bouteille d eau de 75 cl a 2€60(hors frais de service) ! Presque chaque jour avec le today un plan de la ville que nous allons visiter nous est donner 😏. La francophonie a bord et veritable . Hotesse dedié au francophone , animateur parlant francais , serveur , acceuil, bureau d escursion............... (sur MSC tres dur pour un francais d avoir un interlocuteur) La restauration est a peu pres identique sauf quelques point : A midi choix tres limité au restaurant , les desserts et viennoisseries sont bien meilleures que sur MSC , le petit dejeuner au restaurant est servi aussi sous forme de buffet , la pizzeria (gratuite) est ouverte toute la journée , vous pouvez aisement prendre le fromage et le dessert , compose votre menu de 2 plats principaux , par contre les pates et risotos sont bien meilleure sur MSC ! Les heures des repas sont plus restraint que sur MSC . Juste une heure de battement au resto a midi et guere plus au buffet . Des distributeurs de glace a l italienne au buffet (pas fameuse mes super pour les enfants) . Pour conclure ce chapitre je dirai que MSC est a mon avis plus chic(mais un peu trop italien). Mais que les 2 compagnies se valent a quelques differences près et que tout depent des gouts de chacun . Sur cette croisiere nous avons rencontré enormement de passagers qui n avaient jamais pris une autre compagnie que COSTA et qui denigré les autres compagnies . A vrai dire je pense qu il n y a pas assez de difference entre MSC et COSTA pour pouvoir les departager !
Quand au costa mediterranea il sagit d un beau bateau (a la deco tres kitch 😄). L equipe d animation est sympa (quoi que des fois peu motivé) . Nous deconseillons la cabine que nous avions au depart (4233) car tres bruyante (rossignol) . Nous avons reussi a changer de cabine en insistant un peu . Il faut dire que le bateau etait rempli a moitie ! Nous avons du changer de service aussi , car on nous avait attribué une table au premier service (18H !) en insistant aussi! Nous avons eu un rendez vous avec le maitre d hotel, qui nous a attribué une table au second service (20H30). Une piscine couverte , 2 exterieures , plusieurs jacuzzis , une superbe salle de sport gratuite . Les serveurs ainsi que tout le personnel m a paru bien plus souriant et decontracte que sur MSC 😏 . Les bars a l interieur du bateau non pas vraiment de theme et proposent tous la meme carte . Des conferences gratuites (et en francais) a bord , sur les pays que nous visitons. Les spectacles etaient de qualite mais peu variés ( chant et danse ) . Les spectacles pour le second service etaient avant le diner . Ce systeme est tres bien sauf pour un point .Les impolis du premier service qui lorsqu il sorte de table viennent voir la fin du spectacle (qu ils veront dans une heure !🤪) et passent devant vous pour trouver une place ! Nous n avons pas eu de buffet magnifique (peu etre car le bateau etait a moitie vide ?) LE PARCOUR :
SAVONE : Nous arrivons a Savone sans idée precise car toute les personnes a qui l on demande quoi faire a Savone nous repondent allez a Genes ! Ayant deja fait Genes et ni trouvant rien d exeptionnel nous restons a Savone et n en somme pas decu . Nous sortons du port . Le bateau accoste a coté du centre ville . Nous allons visiter la forteresse Priamar . L entrée est gratuite .Le fort est assez grand est offre une vue panoramique sur la ville . A l interieur pour des visites plus culturelle se trouve 2 musées (art et archeologie) . En sortant du fort nous allons vers le front de mer . Une belle promenade pietonne vous mene vers la plage qui est remplie de plage privé qui parraissent assez chic . Nous finissons notre promenade en revenant vers le centre ville ou l architecture rappelle fortement Genes .
MALAGA: Nous sortons du port et nous dirigons vers le centre ville (une demi heure de marche) . Nous allons visiter le fort Alcazaba . L entrée est payante (2€60 je crois) . Au pied de l alcazaba se touvent les ruines d un theatre romain . La visite vaut le détour et offre une belle vue sur Malaga . Nous avons fait l impasse sur le chateau de Gibralfaro .Qui offre un point encore plus haut sur la ville , mais qui est beaucoup moins bien conservé que l Alcazaba . Nous resortons des fortfications et allons vers les arénes en passant par de tres beaux jardins publics . Malheusement en ce jour de toussaint les arenes sont fermés . Nous rentrons manger au bateau . Nous resortons l apres midi et allons visiter le centre ville . Qui est quand meme assez vivant en ce jour ferié . Sur l avenue pietonne principale , des personnages deguisé comme sur les ramblas de barcelone , des boutiques chic , des restos , des glaciers ect ........Nous rentrons au bateau en passant par la plage avec sa pelouse et ses palmiers . Le bateau reprend sa route vers Funchal . Dès que nous entrons dans l ocean le bateau bouge fortement et la journée en mer du lendemain sera tres agitée . Nous nous languissons d acoster .
FUNCHAL: Nous sortons du port et allons vers le centre. Encore une demi heure de marche . Nous allons visiter le marché rempli de fruits exotiques , de fleurs et de poissons locaux . Nous decidons d aller au jardin botanique a pied ! Peu etre pas la meilleure des options . 3/4 heure de monté brute sur une route sans trottoir ! Mais l ascencion en vallait le coup le jardin et tres beau (3€ l entrée) et se fini par un jardin de perroquet . Magnifique ! Nous redescendons (la descente et elle facile et rapide) et rentrons dejeuner au bateau . Nous resortons l apres midi visiter le centre ville remplie de tres beaux jardins publics . Nous finissons la visite par le parc de st catarina et sa statue de Christophe Colomb .
TENERIFE : Nous prenons une escursions proposer par costa pour aller au LORO PARQUE . Nous partons le matin et parcourons une partie de l iles en bus (3/4 heure) pour arriver au parc . Pour info l escursion coute 55€ l entree au parc seule vaut 33€ . Le parc est superbe des spectacles de dauphins , d orques et un de perroquets que malheusement faute de temps nous ne pourront faire . Un aquarium , des gorilles , des pantheres , des singes ect..............Le parc est vraiment tres beau est varié . A refaire 😮 . Nous rentrons au bateau et apres dejeuner allons visiter le centre ville de Santa cruz (25mn du bateau). La ville est tres moderne tres peu de batiments anciens . Nous visitons quelques boutiques et rentrons au bateau . La journee en mer du lendemain sera agité mais rien avoir avec le premier jour dans l ocean .
CASABLANCA : Nous prenons une escursion du bateau pour visiter la mosquée Hassan II . Nous commencons la visite par la medina . Elle est tres calme en cette veille de aid el kebir . Le guide nous informe que beaucoup sont parti en province dans leurs familles pour la fete . La medina est assez typique mais sans charme et plutot sale . Nous fesons un arret (tres long !) dans une herboristerie ou nos compagnons d escursions se dechargent de leurs euros en huile argan et autres produits miracles ! Nous partons en direction de la mosquée . Avant cela un arret a la cathedrale de Casa . Une eglise moderne , avec une reconstitution de la grotte de Lourdes dans sa cour 😐 . Nous arrivons enfin a la mosquée qui est vraiment tres belle (la seule chose de belle a mes yeux a Casa) . Nous y restons une heure avant de repartir . Nous fesons un arret a la corniche remplie de plages privées , de MCDOs et de villas hors de prix , le tout a 200 m de bidonville . Nous rentrons au bateau . Casablanca est une ville sans charme , moderne et ou se cotoient richesse et extreme pauvreté .
BARCELONE: Nous prenons la navette costa pour sortir du port (6€) . Nous allons au marché qui est superbe avec ces etals de fruits a etages . Nous allons voir la cathedrale et reprenons la navette pour aller dejeuner . Nous repartons en ville l apres midi , flaner sur les ramblas et faire un peu de shopping 😎 . La journee du lendemain en mer fut d un calme plat . Le debarquement c est tres bien passé. Tout comme la croisiere , nous repartirons certainement sur costa . Mais la prochaine pour nous sera sur l horizon avec CDF .😉

Bonjour à tous, on pars en croisière pour une semaine et j'ai une question, peut-on voyager en train et en croisière avec des petites seringues injectables conservables au frais?
Dois t-on faire des formalités?
Et comment conserver ?

Hello,
I'm considering a cruise on the Hurtigruten Coastal Express from Bergen to Kirkenes and back to Bergen over 11 days in mid-March 2027. Has anyone already done this trip? I think it’s a great way to discover the Norwegian coast with the chance to see magnificent northern lights, but isn’t the trip a bit *too* long? There are about thirty stops, but most last only a few minutes, with just one daily stop of over 2 hours, which gives a quick glimpse of a few towns but doesn’t allow for a full excursion. Is the supplement for an outside cabin with a porthole (800 € for 2!) really worth it? It’s more pleasant than an inside cabin, but do you spend enough time in your cabin to make the most of it? Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this journey. Best regards.

Hi everyone! I’m used to sailing on a sailboat with two or three people—it’s amazing. But I’d love to try the experience of a cruise. Just to clarify, I’ll be going alone. My first question: are there other solo travelers on these cruises, or is it mostly couples and families?
For a first cruise, I’d prefer a short one (maximum 8 days). Do those exist? And on the smallest boat possible. I live in Marseille, so a departure from Marseille would work, but I’m open to other ports too. If you have a cruise line to recommend and a destination you’ve enjoyed, or if you’ve had a great experience on a more intimate-sized ship, I’d love to hear about it!
Thanks a million for your replies! Marie

Hello,
We just returned from a cruise from 08/13/26 to 08/20/26 on the MSC ORCHESTRA with stops in Tarragona, Valencia, Livorno, Civitavecchia, Genoa, and back to Marseille. The ship was fully booked. Deck chairs were already occupied by beach towels early in the morning, and there were only 1 or 2 people in the pools... However, on the day the Italians disembarked, there were very few towels on the deck chairs. We found the Italians less talkative.
We had a balcony cabin on deck 9, starboard side. The cabin was spacious, but the sofa was facing the desk, making it a pain to watch TV (neck strain guaranteed). So, we changed the sofa’s orientation to face the TV (we put it back in place on disembarkation day). There were 325 French speakers on board, and a lot of staff from Mauritius, which made communication easier.
No annoying announcements about bingo, etc.—a nice change from COSTA.
For dinner, we were at the first sitting at 7:45 PM, at a table for 6. On the first night, we were two "gray-haired" couples at the table. The second night, two young women joined us but asked to change tables after seeing us... The show for our dinner time was at 10:15 PM and ended around 11:00 PM. We found that a bit late for us. The shows were varied and of good quality. The restaurant menus offered plenty of choices, but at the buffet at lunchtime, there were a lot of dishes with quite a few carbs. Afternoon tea from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM included some great pastries, among other things.
We had an issue with the air conditioning and bad odors in the cabin one afternoon. I reported the problem to the reception, and staff along with our cabin steward came to check the cabin. The issue was resolved that same afternoon. Two days later, we were surprised to find a bag with items inside: 2 MSC mugs and 2 MSC thermos flasks that keep drinks hot or cold for 10 hours. It was a gift from customer service following the bad odors in our cabin. We weren’t expecting this at all and thanked MSC’s customer service.
For excursions, MSC always offers port-to-city-center transfers for 14 € per adult in Valencia and Tarragona, and 12 € per child. In Livorno, it was 10 € per adult and 7 € per child. In Civitavecchia, there was a shuttle to the train station for 6 €. On the MSC for Me app, there were "promotions" on certain excursions. We really enjoyed this cruise, but we couldn’t revisit some stops (Tarragona and Valencia) on our own because it was too hot. Great evening: Mum49

We're leaving on August 25th for a Danube cruise from Vienna to Bucharest. The travel agency refuses to postpone this cruise despite navigation changes due to the exceptional drought, which include bus transfers that don’t interest us.
Have you had any experiences with this that you’d like to share?
Hi there!
I’m going on a cruise with MSC on the World Europa this coming October.
Stops: Genoa, Naples, Messina, Malta.
Has anyone visited Mount Etna and Pompeii?
Could you share some tips for each of these stops?
I’d like to explore on my own without booking the ship’s excursions.
Thanks for your advice!
hi everyone!
are there other cruise formats besides the coastal express to see the northern lights in Norway in winter?
hi there
Here’s the cruise schedule for 2026.

Just back from our first cruise on the Renaissance, and I’d like to share a few thoughts about life on board. Our feelings are mixed—we wanted a change after several MSC cruises, but the value for money on this repositioning cruise left us torn.
After taking advantage of successive promotions, we finally secured a well-located balcony cabin for 2600 € (almost 50% off the brochure rate). Given the amenities and the ship’s age, this now feels like the absolute maximum we’d pay for that period.
Overall, we were happy with our vacation on board, but a few details—when added up—left us with a somewhat mixed impression.
The pros: - Ship size - Reasonable noise levels, except in the restaurants (aside from the covered pool area) - Spacious balcony cabin (20 + 5 m²) with plenty of storage and a bathtub with jets - Understated, tasteful decor - French language spoken on board - Friendly staff for the most part - 100% French-speaking clientele - Decent food with French dishes (even with an Indian chef) - Tables for two available (though the ship was full, so no changes possible) - Some high-quality shows, thanks to an excellent English-speaking troupe - Interesting lectures (especially on history and cetaceans)
The cons: - Unreliable air conditioning in common areas (you’d go from a freezing lounge to a hot one, as if the system only worked in certain spaces at certain times) - Aging ship with a few glitches (noises, AC, toilet flushes, lights) reported at reception (luckily, our only issue was the bathroom door not closing...) - Industrial, thawed-out bread and pastries (a letdown for a ship with a French image) - Limited fruit selection (often just apples and watermelon/melon) and not much variety in vegetables - Worn, sometimes stained restaurant towels
We’re not ruling out another cruise on the Renaissance—their itineraries are unique—but only at a very competitive price.

Hi everyone! 😊
I discovered solo cruises last year, and it was a wonderful experience. Since then, I’ve decided to do one every year, usually between October and March, departing from Marseille or Le Havre.
I travel alone, but I enjoy sharing certain moments with other travelers: having meals together, attending shows, enjoying the evening entertainment, grabbing a drink, or going on a few excursions. Of course, everyone keeps their freedom—the goal is simply to have a good time in a friendly atmosphere.
For the end of this year, I don’t have a cruise planned yet. However, I’m already booked on the MSC Magnifica from October 29 to November 3, 2027, departing from Marseille with an itinerary to Spain and Italy.
If you often travel solo or if you’re on this cruise, I’d love to chat with you before departure. Looking forward to meeting you! 🚢😊

We're considering a Danube cruise that stops in Bucharest.
Are there any travelers currently on the river, which is at its lowest level?
Hi there,
I’m taking a cruise on the Costa Pacifica in December—what should I expect in terms of rough seas?
Hi there,
I’d love some advice for a 15-day NILE-RED SEA combo trip. Which tour operator should I go with? Thanks for sharing your experiences!
contact me to get referred at MSC, for your first cruise or if you haven't traveled with MSC in over 5 years
Hello!
After a lot of hesitation between different cruise lines (Explora, Oceania, YC, HAL, NCL) and several destinations like Norway, Ireland, and Iceland,
I finally chose NCL’s Star for Iceland. I had already looked at this itinerary when I went to Scotland in April with CFC, but it was really expensive. You should know that CFC often offers last-minute deals 45 days before departure (the point when you can no longer cancel or modify). So, I got a great opportunity and grabbed it. Departure is on August 23rd.

Hi everyone,
I’m staying in a suite on the Pacifica in October and I can’t find any details about the suite benefits beyond the elite restaurant, the butler, and the espresso machine.
What about breakfast and meals served free in the cabin, and the spa?
Costa’s been cutting back on perks for Gold members, and it seems like suites are next.
Thanks for your replies!
Hello,
We’re back from this cruise.
Boarding in Dunkirk: The doors opened around 12 PM. Since we were a bit early, I asked if my husband, who uses a walker, could wait inside instead of outside. I left him with the two suitcases and our two backpacks in the small hall while I parked the car in the reserved CFC parking lot for 10 € per day.
The shuttle that was supposed to take people from the parking lot to the model pavilion was supposed to arrive in 5 minutes, but after 15 minutes, nothing. After waiting 15 minutes, I saw a man walking and asked if I could follow him. In 15 minutes, we arrived, and still no sign of the shuttle—it must have passed us. Arrived at the model pavilion.
My husband had already checked in the suitcases with the help of a CFC staff member. The remaining formalities were completed quickly. We were on board by 12:15 PM. Headed to the buffet on deck 11 and waited in a lounge to access our cabin.
At 2 PM, we discovered our balcony cabin on deck 9 at the rear: spacious with a large balcony compared to MSC/COSTA.
Since we were at the rear, cabin 9202, there was always an issue with elevator number 4: "priority."
Elevator number 2 stops at deck 10... and elevator number 3 was often out of order, leaving only number 1 for those with mobility issues to reach the buffet, especially for people who struggle with stairs. Note: only one child on board and lots of "gray hair."
DAY 2: At sea. Lots of activities offered.
Day 3: GOTHENBURG (Sweden). Sunny, 19°C at 11 AM.
Excursion booked with CFC: Gothenburg and Haga for all.
Interesting visit with a great guide. The HAGA district, in our opinion, is full of cobblestones and nothing special, not suitable for people using a cane or wheelchair. Elevator number 3 was out of order again.
Day 4: Copenhagen. 15°C in the morning, showers in the afternoon.
We didn’t book an excursion since we’d already stopped here with CFC in 2025, and based on advice from this forum, we took the hop-on/hop-off bus right in front of the ship. I still went to see the Little Mermaid again.
No TV, but the elevator was fixed.
DAY 5: At sea. Still no TV.
DAY 6: GDANSK (Poland). 15°C, rain all day.
There’s a shuttle to get to the city center.
We took the excursion: Panorama of Gdansk.
The guide left us at the entrance of the city center for 45 minutes, telling us what to visit. Meet-up for the rest of the tour at 3 PM. The bus left at 3:15 PM to cover 10 km to see St. Mary’s Cathedral. We arrived at 4:16 PM... The guide said there are often traffic jams in that direction. We had 10 minutes on site before heading to see the lighthouse and the Westerplatte monument, where we also had 10 minutes.
Many of us wondered why we didn’t do the tour in the opposite direction since they knew there would be traffic...
I went to reception to complain about the organization. The staff member read me the program: we were supposed to start with the lighthouse, then go to the cathedral and stay for 30 minutes before heading to the center of Gdansk for a short guided walk with some free time to buy souvenirs, etc.
The guide did the complete opposite of what was planned and didn’t even give us a guided tour—just dropped us off in the city...
DAY 7: Bornholm Island (Denmark). 14°C, a few sunny spells.
We saw in the excursions that there was a walking tour of RØNNE. So, like many others, we explored on our own. There was a small orchestra welcoming us at the port and two people with city maps. We took the shuttle to leave the port—it ran every 15 minutes. The tourist office was next to the "shuttle bus." A pleasant visit at our own pace.
DAY 8: KIEL (Germany). 18–23°C, nice weather.
We took the "Kiel for all" excursion. Great guide and interesting visits.
The port is in the city, and in 10 minutes, we were in the city center by following a blue line on the ground from the port. Elevator 3 was stuck again... and the TV was back.
DAY 9: At sea. Elevator 3 works.
DAY 10: At sea. Elevator 3 is out of order again...
DAY 11: Disembarkation in Dunkirk.
Cabins had to be vacated by 7:30 AM. Buffet open until 9 AM.
Elevator number 1 was "reserved," leaving only number 2, which doesn’t go up to deck 11... a problem for people with mobility issues who had to cross the entire deck 11 and try to use one of the four working elevators at the front, which were crowded.
My opinion: Interesting stops.
The onboard staff were always welcoming, smiling, and mostly French-speaking.
Evening shows were better than in March/April 2025—better singers, dancers, and presenters, and the costumes were improved.
I liked the "magician" shows less.
There were three onboard lectures by a very cultured person, but they went off-topic and were too historical for my taste. I didn’t attend the other two; my husband went to the second but not the third.
For this cruise, there was a bridge theme, but we’re not players or interested.
We didn’t take a drink package on board—water, coffee, tea, and herbal teas were available.
We had a water leak in our cabin the night before disembarkation. We reported it, and after the technical staff came (with a translator who didn’t speak English), we were asked to leave the cabin for a while for repairs. We went to a lounge, and after 1.5 hours, I checked in at reception. The repair took longer than expected... we had to change cabins... not ideal the night before disembarkation. No balcony cabins were available, so we got an ocean-view cabin, 6075, with a bathtub (impossible for both of us to use). We packed our suitcases, took a shower in our cabin, and moved to the new one. Noise from chairs until 12:30 AM because the cabin was under a lounge, and constant ventilation noise in the hallway... sleep was hard to come by. Disembarkation: Well organized. We were helped with transporting the two suitcases and bags to the waiting room while I took the shuttle to get the car. Guylène

Hi there,
I'm looking at a cruise in the north.Which one do you think is more interesting? Thanks
Hello
We’re taking an MSC cruise in May, and after the Cinque Terre, we’ll be stopping in Naples. We’d like to know if it’s possible to walk out of the port quickly and reach a nice area of Naples on foot (we’re two older people). While we’re at it, I’ll ask the same question for Palermo, since we’ll be there the next day. Thanks for your replies.

hi,
I’m leaving Hamburg for Iceland at the end of July. The boat arrives in Reykjavik on Tuesday, August 4th at 8 AM, and I’d like to book a day trip like the Golden Circle or Secret Lagoon… The sites like GetYourGuide and others list departures at 8 AM. If you’ve used these sites with the MSC Preziosa, could you let me know how to go about it?
Thanks! 😉

Hi
Has anyone taken the CFC recently?
Thoughts?

Hello everyone,
It’s with immense sadness that I learned this morning of the passing of our friend Nathalie (nadu). Many of us knew her through this forum, which she loved so much. She enjoyed reading your travel stories, joining discussions, sharing her cruise reviews, and offering valuable advice—always with kindness, gentleness, and discretion.
For me, Nathalie was so much more than just a cruise enthusiast. She was a friend, a deeply kind person who was always there to listen, despite the many health challenges she faced with tremendous courage. We corresponded regularly, and sometimes we had the chance to visit each other’s homes or attend the cruise show together with our respective husbands.
We shared a common dream: when we both retired, we had planned to finally go on a cruise together. Life had other plans, and that trip will forever remain a journey we never had the chance to take. That thought weighs heavily on my heart today.
I’ll remember her as a gentle, generous woman who was always ready to help others. Her presence on this forum will leave a huge void, just as her friendship has in my life.
I send my sincerest thoughts to her husband, her family, and all those who had the chance to know her.
Fair winds, Nathalie. I like to think you’re now sailing on an infinitely calm sea, under an eternally blue sky. You’ll remain in our thoughts and hearts every time we talk about cruises or set off on a new journey.
Rest in peace, Nathalie.
For those who’d like to send a message of comfort and sympathy to her husband, you can send me a PM, and I’ll pass it along. THANK YOU

Hello everyone,
So happy to be back on this Forum!
We’re heading off on another cruise—our 7th—after a 5-year break...
We’ll be leaving from Venice on April 26th with stops in Kotor, Mykonos, Santorini, and Ancona.
Could you help me plan the stops by sharing tips, tricks, and advice?
For those who already know me, you know we prefer not to take the cruise line’s excursions but instead organize everything ourselves.
Thanks in advance to everyone, and looking forward to chatting with you all!
hi there, a group of friends and I are going on a cruise at the end of June with CFC in Norway. I’d love to get some info on the different stops we’ll be making. Most of them are one-day stops (from around 10 AM to 8 PM on average). Here are the stops: Andalsnes, Trondheim, Honningsvåg, Alta, Hellesylt, Sandane, Austefjorden.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can share what there is to see or do in these places.
When I get back, I’ll post what we did—it might help others who come after us.
Also, does anyone know if the boat sticks to the arrival time in Dunkirk for catching tickets to head back south? We’ll plan a buffer just in case.
Thanks everyone!
