The itinerary is the best, even is a little bit rush sometimes, is a great way to experience different cities or destinations.

The ship is a little bit old if I compare with others experienced before, but the staff of this one, really is amazing and make the difference.

Cabin / Stateroom

Too noise, my wife experienced some problems to sleep here. Finally the staff provide us another room and that was great for the last 5 nights.

Ship tip

Experience the formal restaurants (Windows and Gardens) for dinner but also for breakfast, both are great. If you like to drink, take the advantage of the beverage package is a plus. On the ocean days, if you want a chair next to the pool, wake up early.

Ports of call

Venice, Italy

5 out of 5
Look for restaurantes outside the main streets. They are amazing and cheaper. Stay here at least 2 nights before the cruise.

Kotor, Montenegro

5 out of 5
One of my favorite places, walk to the top of the mountain and visit the nearby cities around.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

5 out of 5
Try the local gyros, they are amazing and soo cheap.

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5
Visit a local beach and do not leave your things unattended, but plan to return with enough time if using public transportation, when some cruises are at the same time, there is many people and not enough buses to guarantee your return to the ship area.

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
Try the pizza, is the best of the world.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
Leave early if you want to see as much. The train is very easy to access.

Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy

5 out of 5
If traveling in little group, rent a car and drive on your own, is very close to everything.

Barcelona, Spain

5 out of 5
Stay here more than one night after the cruise, visit and eat at "The boquería" is fantastic.
