Clothing & Packing Tips
Light, loose-fitting clothing that provides comfort is essential. Temperatures in this region are cool even in the summer, so it is a good idea to dress in layers for daytime shore excursions (Also, keep in mind that the river cruise ship is air conditioned).
A sturdy pair of walking shoes or sneakers is also recommended for shore excursions and exploring the cities.
Be prepared for any eventuality. A lightweight sports jacket and rainwear are advised.
Remember that it is preferable not to visit religious sites with bare legs and shoulders (and entrance may be denied on this basis).
