Review summary

I DON'T USALLY TRAVEL DURING THE HIGH SEASON BUT THIS TRIP WAS WITH MY 15 YR. OLD GRANDAUGHTER SO BEING ON A FULL SHIP HAD IT'S ISSUES, MOSTLY WITH FINDING ANY SEATING OUTSIDE ON ANY DECK. 

 

STAFF WAS GREAT, ESPECIALLY OUR CABIN ATTENDANT.

 

HAD A GREAT TABLE IN THE DINING ROOM, VERY CLOSE TOTHE CLASSICAL GUITARIST. LOVED IT!

 

EXCURSION PRICES SEEMED HIGH.

 

WORST SCRAMBLED EGGS EVER, NOT SURE THEY WERE FRESH EGGS.

 

LIKED SHIP DECOR AND THAT IT WAS RECENTLY REFURBISHED.

 

WEATHER PREVENTED US FROM VISITING MYKONOS AND DISAPPOINTED BUT CAN'T CONTROL THE WEATHER.
