Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Very poor. 7 day cruise ended leaving the ship on 7th day at 6:20 AM! Taking a 5 hour cramped overrated train ride to the start of the land cruise. The land cruise was great with the exception of the last day after 1pm check out we spent 9 hours in hotel lobby hard chairs waiting for our 10PM shuttle to the airport.
