Santorini, Greece Port Reviews

Crete, Greece. We were supposed to visit Santorini; however, they swapped this for Crete and gave each passenger $50 onboard credit. Princess provided free buses into town where we walked around. This was our favorite port to this point and yes, we enjoyed more Spanakopita, and a few other pastries!

Explained in the main review

Loved Santorini, but avoid the cable cars if you can. The wait to descend to get back to the ship was horrendous! All ships anchor and tender at this port.

Can be better!!

Gorgeous. Did a winery and sunset tour.

Poor tendering process. Half the day wasted trying to get off ship and back on ship.

The tender process was terrible. I got in line at 5:55AM and was standing near the WIFI desk. I was in group 10 to get off boat and by that time, the cruise seemed to pause tenders to remove guests who booked excursions with them directly. Very stressful start to a long and hot day. We finally arrived on shore at 9:00 and we were very late for our tour. There needs to be a better way. Cruise mentions to get in line at 6:30. Had I known, I would have got in line at 5AM.

I rate this five stars because it's a bucket list location. I personally think it's a bit overrated, but I think it's great that they included it.

crowded but beautiful

The excursion was well organized with RC! I would suggest though a longer time …it was beautiful!
