Review summary

This is a very nice cruise in September.  The ship is first rate, and the destinations are all beautiful.  When it is really hot, do take advantage of the cable car trip to the top of Dubrovnik.  The restaurant up there is really nice with a terrific view.  The excursions remain very helpful.  Our guide in Athens was very informative.  The Kusadasi excursion in town ended with a demonstration of rug making that will amaze you.  Definitely take this excursion.

Tends to be on the syrupy side, older people's tastes.

We spend so little time in our room, that the porthole was just fine. We have cruised with a balcony and a picture window. The balcony was a waste for us --- we were always out and about.

Ports of call

Venice, Italy

Gross place - dirty, overcrowded, boats dirty and noisy, shop owners are sharks.

Dubrovnik, Croatia

Lovely location. Do walk around the old walls.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

3 out of 5
The city is no big deal --- like any other big city. The Acropolis is worth seeing.

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

5 out of 5
Terraced houses are amazing. Ruins are worth seeing.

Split, Croatia

Very nice old, narrow streets and shopping area. Picturesque.
