Enrichment

For each cruise Nicko Cruises offer a pre-bookable Excursion Package including interesting excursions, which they specially recommend. In the case of some cruises you will see in the travel itinerary that the excursions are already included in the basic price. Further optional excursions can be booked on board, often subject to a minimum number of participants. Theatre performances depend on local schedules, which are sometimes subject to last minute alterations. Should you not take part in a pre-booked excursion (either as part of a package or booked individually on board), they are not able to issue a refund. Also please note that abnormal water levels or extended waiting times at locks may lead to delays and alterations to the planned excursion schedule or to a change of disembarkation or embarkation point.
