Review summary

While I was disappointed that the 2 port calls in Turkey were cancelled due to the coup attempt. The 2 additional port of calls added were great and did not seem like it was a place "just to stop" to add ports back in.

Service and Staff

Our Sommelier didn't seem like a happy person with our table but seemed fine with the others. We all had premium beverage packages so not sure if that had something to do with it or not.

Thank you for posting your review. Your comment "removed from trip due to coup attempt" was a sobering reality. Glad that safety was primary concern. Missing a port may be disappointing but losing one's life would be even more of a disruption. I'll take the former every time.
