Review summary

This was our first transatlantic and we were not disappointed with anything. There were activities and programs provided on the sea days and the ports were very interesting. The staff is the happiest I have ever experienced. Everything was run in a timely manner. Exits from the ship were very organized and quick. They kept it cold but I don't know why.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

They provide wonderful service for those who need to eat "gluten-free." The dining room selections were varied and good.

Entertainment

The hop on hop off buses are a wonderful way to see the city.

Don't Miss: The Padrea Famillia is great as well as Gaudi's apartment.

Loved the White Villages.

Monte Carlo, Monaco

5 out of 5

I took an optional tour to Nice and Eze and enjoyed both very much. Eze is a real neat place but the climb to the top of the city is a killer.

Ponta Delgada, Azores

5 out of 5

Really liked this port.

Valencia, Spain

3 out of 5

Think the bad guide we had influenced my opinion of this city.

Almeria, Spain

5 out of 5

Liked that you could explore on your own.

Pros: The days at sea
