We are now cruise people. Who knew. We will definitely do this again and only with Holland America. Experience of a lifetime.

We loved the lido deck and room service. We only ate in the dining area once but was fine, but actually prefer the selection on the lido deck more. Great options, lots of fruits and veggies. So delicious.

We came on this particular cruise for a quieter atmosphere and crowd. Loved the spa and spent a lot of time in vip soaking pool. Heaven.

Ship tip
Don’t worry too much about excursions. It was our first cruise and I was freaked out and overwhelmed. We didn’t end up booking anything through the ship as we could do it all on our own for a FRACTION of the price. We researched the port a day in advance, watched their exc presentations and booked a tour or shuttle once off the bus.
I’m surprised they let this city get so run down at parts, but I know Greece’s economy is struggling. Beautiful sites. The hop on, hop off bus here was everything we needed.
Reason we booked the trip in the first place. One of the now best memories of my life. We walked from fira to oia on trail. Made it four hours before stopping for pizza and taking a taxi. Seriously unreal amazing.
I’m giving this port a five because of things to do around Naples. Naples itself, I actually hated. Went to Capri. Next time will do Pompeii or amalfi coast. Just beautiful. We did see the Veiled Christ, which was one of the most incredible pieces of art I’ve ever experienced. I cried nonstop. Still do when I think about it.
We too love Holland America cruise line. Impeccable in everything they offer. We have cruised on other lines too, and always have a blast because we find the fun everywhere we go, but always compare every cruise to HAL. We just love cruising.
We were on the same cruise. We really enjoy HAL and Princess. Both owned by Carnival which gives OBC if you own stock. Princess gives military and Vets great OBC. If you liked the N.S. and HAL, then you will like Princess. Both are comparable. We choose one or the other, depending on itinerary. Happy cruising!
