what are the ship prices for the White Pass and Yukon train ride?

We leave on Saturday for Lisbon and finish our cruise in Barcelona.  I have also been considering taking the train to the Dali Museum and wondered if it work worth to see for a day travel. Interested to see what others suggest.

I will be in Lisbon in October and I am thinking of purchasing the Lisboa Card to use for all transportation and my planned sites of interest.  Has anyone used it and if so what do you think?

What is an appropriate tip for a tour guide and driver for an excursion in Portugal?

Hi Terry:

Could you please give me the name of tour company you used for Hobart - Port Arthur Penal System - many thanks, Doreen

Cool Cruiser - when is your cruise date
