Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Incredible food. The only thing we were not pleased with is that coffee is not included in the drinks package. go figure. I should also warn that when you are offered water from a bottle with the meal that you also be aware that you will be charged for it.

Ports of call

Barcelona, Spain

5 out of 5
We enjoyed each port. Its where we started and finished

Naples, Italy

3 out of 5
if you venture to the main street, which we did for a few minutes. I was surprised that the city was not cleaner. I do not recommend venturing for that little walk. You had to be careful where you were walking on the sidewalks, if you know what I mean.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
We walked to the train station, was not too hard to find. took about 15 min

Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy

5 out of 5
cruise organizes bus to PISA so it made the travel there hassle free, giving us plenty of time to visit

Cannes, France

5 out of 5
There was plenty to see. you must have some of the coffee and pastries

Palma De Mallorca, Balearic Islands

5 out of 5
There was plenty to see. too bad that we were only there 1/2 day.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
no problems.
