Costa Marina (RETIRED) 77

7 Night Greece And Croatia (Trieste Roundtrip)

Sail date: September 02, 2007

Ship: Costa Marina (RETIRED) 77

Cabin type: Inside

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Review summary

Clearly a rather old ship and it shows in many ways. If your focus is on the harbours, trips and onshore regional spefifics, it serves its purpose. If the focus is more on cruising and enjoying the ship, it does not. The staff though, does its best to make up for it.

Ports of call

Santorini, Greece

3 out of 5
Must see would be a trip to the excavations at Akrotiri, yet none was offered. Oia is pretty pitoresque and the valcono trip quite enjoyable. for anyone firm on their feet, I strongly recommend walking up the donkey trail (using the donkeys is cruetly to the animals) and the cable car wastes an enormous amount of time waiting.
Don't Miss: Akrotiri
