Europe by ship is still a port schedule — not a slow countryside
Multiple countries, tender ports, and museum-level walking. Beautiful. Not automatically relaxing.
Europe by ship is still a port clock

What a Mediterranean week needs
Documents
Passports belong in official sources. I will not invent visa advice.
Pace
A port every morning is a walking tour with a curfew.
Tenders
Weather and waiting are part of some harbors.
Pre-nights
