Review summary

My husband and I enjoyed the Costa Fortuna 14 day cruise to Iceland very much.  We just wanted to give a big thank you to the many staff members who graciously helped us out and were kind to us at all times.  We were the only Americans on board yet we had a marvelous time.  Thanks to our room captain Ari from room 1162.  Thanks to our Pizza captain who we enjoyed chatting with on stormy nights.  Thanks to Alma Lopez for always being so gracious. Thank you to our American-Greek speaking representative.  Thank you to the 9:00p.m. waiters who were always very professional.  Best wishes for many more exciting cruises!  Vicky and Tim Reidy

The shower was new and very clean. The linens were soft and the bed was great to sleep in for two weeks.

Ship tip

Plan your excursions early. We missed the volcano excursion and regret missing out! Bring some games in case you get socked in with fog. You never know! Plan to stay up late every night! The sun never sets! It was truly amazing. Try to get a balcony. You won't regret it.

We spent too much time looking for a cool bar and grill. Eat on the boat today.

Sounds like the crew really impressed you.  I hope someday to go to Iceland.  I have never been there.  I hope that future cruises on Costa are just as rewarding.
