Excellent cruise. Once in a lifetime opportunity and Norwegian made it special for us.

The steward when out of her way to guide us as if we were the only people taking the cruise.

The buffet could have had a bit more of a variety. Each night is was basically the same.

Casino, wine/martini/whiskey tastings, fitness center, pool...all great!

2 out of 5
the logistics of waiting in line for 2.5hrs to get the cable car down in time to get the last tender back to the boat was very tense and caused undue anxiety. Norwegian should have a steward working the line to reassure passengers that they will not be left behind. Disney reps were doing this.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
all went well

We just booked a few doors down from your cabin. I was wondering about the bathroom configuration. Is the “room” with toilet a reasonable size or are you jammed in there?!?

The line for the cable car is always terrible. Just walk down and enjoy the view.

Thanks for your review. Santorini really can be a nightmare getting up to Fira and back down. Sometimes you’re lucky enough to have no other ships there that day.
