How Long Do Mini-Cruises Last For?

Mini-cruises can last for as long as you like. They can be as long or as short as you like - that's the benefit of them; they can be tailored to suit your needs.
You could mini-cruise on the same day to Calais to get a bit of continental shopping in. Here you wouldn't need a cabin and it's advisable to take a car but you would still get to experience the facilities on board.
If one day is too short, why not try a two day escape to Amsterdam? The ship sails overnight while you sleep so you will wake up in a new country! Spend a full day exploring this cosmopolitan city before boarding the return sailing which sails overnight again. No jetlag and you get a two day escapade to Amsterdam!
Sailing to Denmark and Spain generally follow the same sort of setup.
If two days is still to short, you can book a hotel through the cruise line and extend your stay in Europe by a few days, turning a two day mini-break into a week long holiday. The choice is yours.
