Review summary

The shore excursions were great and worth the money. In general the cruise seemed catered towards European guests. It was also a "revolving" cruise so embarkation was easy with only a few hundred guests getting on/off in Rome.

The layout of the bathroom was difficult to get used to but manageable. The sink was way too small and didn't drain well. The cabin could use better lighting as well. The balcony was huge but probably more space than needed.

Ports of call

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

Sometimes I would rather have the European tourists in a cruise than some Americans. Fun loving and respectful of others!

We were on the EPIC in September. I didn't feel they catered to any country over another. However, being on other cruises I feel the passengers not as friendly. This was our first European cruise, maybe it was the size of the ship.

I'm on it right now. Well, actually on a ferry heading to Capri but I don't get that impression at all. I've been on a few NCL ships and nothing at all different on this one.

Funny I got the impression it was catering for he American guests. There were a lot on the ship. I had a great time met lovely people.
