Review summary

First cruise on RCI - 6th cruise overall. Less than a third of passengers spoke English - to our surprise- and clientele was much older than our experiences on Princess. Ports were great, but re-boarding the ship was very poorly handled - extremely inefficient! Worst was reembarking after Livorno - went to same port with Princess 3 years ago and it was handled much better. Also, art program was very amateurish and could in no way compare to Princess.

Florence is an amazing city. But getting back on ship after this port was terrible with RCI (better with Princess).
