And that's ok too! We don't all have to like or want the same things ;-)
I of course can't speak for Mike's other half, but if my SO had Berlin on his bucket list, we'd be visiting Berlin one way or another. For myself, I'd much rather spend a a night or two in a place I wasn't excited about over spending several hours traveling for a short day tour. The cruise option wouldn't even be an option for me -: that sounds horrible to me, maybe especially so for a person that would like to see Berlin!
