Review summary

The best cruise ever! Each day was full of beautiful sights and experiences. In retrospect buying a beverage package really wasn't necessary on this fast one day at sea cruise. Taking daily excursions didnt leave much time to relax by the pool.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the ship's personnel were very friendly and helpful.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Even though there were so many passengers every area was very well maintained, from the dining areas to the restrooms. Very impressive!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin was spacious. Lots of storage space and a very comfortable bed. The bathroom space was questionable. Getting into the deep tub to shower could present problems for someone with limited mobility.

Ship tip

Ask about the excessability of shower in cabins.

Ports of call

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
I would highly recommend arriving in rome a few days ahead of sailing. So much to see there!

Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy

5 out of 5
Excursion "Florence on your own "was perfect . Plenty of time to fit in seeing Michael Angelo' s "David".

Cannes, France

4 out of 5
Cannes and visiting the medival village of eze was an awsome experience!

Palma De Mallorca, Balearic Islands

3 out of 5
Our sight seeing exclusion us a must.

Barcelona, Spain

4 out of 5
We decided to do a hop on hop off bus tour. One short day was not enough time to enjoy the city.

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
Seeing Pompeii is an absolute must!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5

"fast and extremely easy" embarkation comment but 2 stars rating? I'm confused. Also, the title says PERFECT CRUISE but only 4 stars. We are going on the EPIC next week but I can't figure out this review.
