Review summary

Cabine was very comfortable. Staff excellent very friendly and helpful. Entertainment was good, specially the argentinian dances. We loved all the excursions - our favorite one was Santorini, where we intend to go again next year. For us the weakest point was the food waste - too much food left on the plates in general.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The cabine was excellent. But sometimes during night there was a banging noise on the top floor that woke us up. But after having complained it got better.

Ship tip

Don't overeat - there is good food everywhere at any time

My recent cruise with my girl friend was amazing. Everything was fantastic. Loved the smaller ship. Service was top notch. Cabin steward was amazing. Waiter and assistant waiter in the dining room were great. Food in the dining room was excellent.

First of many

Mediocre overall cruise experience
