Review summary

We enjoyed it very much. Can’t say I would do extensions again, however. Expensive and if hotel is far from sites it gets too complicated.

Vega De Terron (Salamanca), Spain Did not visit port

My husband was not feeling well so we did not do this. One star is a mistake and can’t make it go away.

Pinhao, Portugal

5 out of 5
We did an excursion can’t remember which. It’s all a blur and not familiar with names so can’t relate.

Disembarkation
