Some cruise guests even opt to stay on the ship when it’s in port, as some areas are quieter than normal.
Guests will have the best chance of enjoying the swimming pool or the spa when other passengers have disembarked.
‘Art-Vandelay’ said: “Cruises aren’t designed to give you a full cultural experience, you’re getting time on a luxury ship fully loaded with amenities, and a taste of a few spots along the way.
“If you are wanting to fully experience Europe, or specific cities, doing so before/after the cruise makes more sense.”
