A cruise on board the COLUMBUS is primarily a journey for your senses. Colorful and diverse is every new site that you visit and every new culture you get to know.

Kids Programs

Kindergarten

We offer child care for children four years of age and older. If we have four or more children aged four or older on board, a child care specialist will go on the voyage and organise a very special children's cruise with special excursions and children's events both on board and on shore. Play, sport and creative programmes will be the order of the day from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm and from 7:00 to 9:00 pm when the ship is at sea. There are two special rooms available for supervised playing of the children; they are open outside of supervised hours as well and are equipped for all age groups. The supervision periods on days with shore excursions - as a rule six to eight hours - are set according to the lay time of the EUROPA so that parents have the option of occasionally going on excursions without their children. But besides this, we also offer shore excursions especially for children and parents. Moreover, our concierge will be happy to arrange for a babysitter (subject to charge) for children aged four or older outside of the official care times.

Tipping

Tipping is not obligatory on board. Acknowledgement of particularly good service is at the discretion of each guest.
