What to Pack
Casual clothes are perfect for days onboard; comfortable, low-heeled
walking shoes are a must. And don't forget your camera and
binoculars, so you don't miss a thing.
For evening wear, count on three basic types of attire: Casual:
Dresses or slacks and blouses for women, sport shirts and trousers
for men
Smart Casual: Dresses or pantsuits for women, jackets for men
Formal: Cocktail dresses for women, suits and ties or tuxedos for
men (you can usually arrange to rent a tuxedo onboard)
Ashore, if you plan to visit the museums and cathedrals of Europe,
it's always wise to dress conservatively. Sleeveless tops and shorts
are generally not allowed.
If you are cruising to Northern Europe, remember that nights on deck
can be cool. Bring sweaters, jackets and long pants. You may also
want to bring a raincoat, hiking shoes and a travel umbrella.
