You can DEFINTLY see the sights and have a great time without the cruise. It takes more planning on your part but it can be very rewarding. We did the cruise because it was a family thing (age range 9 to 85) and it just made sense. We each did our own thing during the day and then met for dinner to tell our stories.

I had my reservations about the cruise however I would like to say (post first cruise) that I could get used to the cruising life style and it was an efficient way to get around.
