Review summary

Going across the Atlantic only was fun, relaxing and very busy. Adding a Mediterranean loop to make it 25 days was a great idea to make it a vacation with many interesting places to visit. Would be great to have another TA to follow right away to rest a bit before disembarking.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Few hours late due to dry dock repairs but otherwise OK.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was excellent as before, no complains with one exception - Sacher torte was not the real thing and was served with some type of Coolwhip instead of a whipped cream. For same reason whipped cream was almost impossible to obtain. I am sure there is an explanation, but it was frustrating and we then avoided everything claiming it was served with whipped cream.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Too many activities to choose from and not enuf time.
