Airport transfers are not included in the base price but are available as an optional extra. Guests should arrange their travel to the embarkation port, typically Cologne or Frankfurt, and can coordinate with the cruise operator for transfer services.

We recommend comprehensive travel insurance for every cruise, covering trip cancellation and interruption, medical treatment and emergency evacuation abroad, and baggage loss or delay. · Remote destinations such as the Galápagos, Antarctica or the Arctic make evacuation cover especially important.

Check your embarkation port in your booking confirmation and book flights to the nearest airport. · Allow enough time for the transfer from the airport to the harbour.

Check the entry requirements for every country on your itinerary, including embarkation, disembarkation and transit countries. Requirements depend on your nationality and travel documents. Ask the relevant consulates about visas, electronic travel authorisations and passport validity before travelling.
