Relax as you're taken to the best sights without effort Discover Europe's treasures with knowledgeable guides Travelmarvel takes a personal approach to travel Small Group Shore Excursions Gain unparalleled insight into every destination you visit. Europe's filled with spectacular scenery, famous landmarks and fascinating culture, all awaiting your discovery. So that's why when you step off your river ship, we've made sure you'll be truly immersed in the destination, not just get a fleeting glimpse. SMALLER GROUPS – FOR A MORE PERSONAL DISCOVERY We make every effort to tailor your shore excursions to make them more personal. Upon disembarking your ship in each new location, you'll separate into small groups so your guide can shape the excursion according to your fitness levels, your expectations and your interests. Commentary will be more personalised and you'll have more time to ask your questions. You'll be engaged and enthralled at the fascinating destinations you're intimately discovering. With Travelmarvel, you can be confident that you'll be treated the same on land as you are on water – as an individual. THE INSIDER'S EXPERIENCE – WITH KNOWLEDGEABLE LOCAL GUIDES You stop at the doorway and think that there's nothing overly surprising about the building. Its door's old, intricately carved and perhaps unusually tall. Your guide leans over and tells you the story behind its importance, enlightening you about how this residence was the studio of one of the city's famous painters. It's moments like these that add depth, colour and a more personal experience to your tour. With us, you'll embrace Europe's legendary sights and learn the tantalising tales with our English-speaking local guides. Seeing past the facades, you'll be treated to a behind-the-doors exposé. You're with passionate guides who are introducing you to their much-loved towns, local customs and impressive sights. They make sure you not only visit the landmarks, but show you the spots not mentioned in the guide books. You'll acquire impressive knowledge and local insight as you really embrace these destinations. – www.travelmarvel.com.au – BICYCLES – FREEDOM TO EXPLORE The MS Johann Strauss carries bicycles available to use during your leisure time as you stop in all the enchanting places.
