Review summary

This Holy Land Cruise was the trip of a lifetime. If you’re a person of Christian faith, you will absolutely love seeing the the places you’ve always read about. The cruise ports in Israel was an unbelievable experience.

Extremely pleasurable

A unique itinerary that needs to be replicated

Have now done two smaller ships, Jewel and Serenade, in succession following a cruise on the Harmony. Small ships remind me of what cruising used to be...pampering by staff, higher quality of food, communal feeling among passengers.
