Highly recommend and considering repeating it next year. Missed Palma de Mallorca with itinerary change and was disappointed. Don't believe negativity about the Epic, it's a great ship with a great crew.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Easy embarkation, glad we had cruise line transfers, they dealt with baggage so we did not have to; this expedited our check in.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Very pleased with all dining venues, Cagney's was worthy of a second trip, tiramisu in LaCucina was amazing, fish and chips in O'Sheehan's delicious and buffet was great for breakfast. Everything was very clean as well.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
They had a good variety of onboard activities although we did not partake in them. Shore excursions were tiring and we were content with relaxing when we got back.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Burn the Floor was very good. We were not interested in the other shows but heard they were very good as well.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Room steward Wilson top notch! All staff very helpful, my husband's luggage was lost for the entire trip and guest services was very diligent on following up every day so we could take our excursions. Staff overall amazing!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Very very clean, no complaints.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Mini Suite just perfect. I didn't expect to be happy with the cabin after hearing complaints with the design but we had no issues with it. It had a TON of storage, a HUGE shower and was great for the two of us.
Ship tip
Upgrade to mini suite from a balcony for the extra space.
Loved it and will go back. did Amalfi Coast tour with Shore Excursion Group...amazing, we saw the whole coast, had a great lunch and plenty of time for photo ops and some shopping. Visited Limoncello factory as well. Luca was the guide, Angelo the driver...both awesome!!!
Did excursion with cruise line, very fast paced and very tiring but saw soooo much...Ultimate Rome, highly recommend, had best pizza ever, would have liked more time to shop in Rome. Will go back!
Did Cinque Terre excursion with NCL. Flavia top notch, entertaining and informative...perhaps my fav part of entire trip! Gorgeous Italian Rivera photos!
Was OK, did short excursion to Antibes and St. Paul de Vence...it was OK, tour guide not too good, Had great sandwich on fresh baguette in St. Paul. Next visit we will likely go off on our own.
