Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Had a few issues with our stateroom, it seems to be a reoccurring condition. Guest service was quick to respond and to follow up.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The Spirit is the oldest ship in the NCL fleet. She can use more upgrades. One immediate upgrade is to be able to look into your onboard account within your stateroom. Overall the ship is well-maintained and well cleaned.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Good size cabin with a one seater sofa. Wish there was another nightstand. Overall pretty comfy bed and quit clean.

Ports of call

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
It’s a pretty little cruise port. Wife and I stayed a couple of days before our cruise. We revisited some of our favorite spots. Found a new favorite restaurant across from the beach (had dinner there 2 nights).

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5
Booked a tour with the ship. Birthplace of Artemis & Apollo. Besides having to wait a long time for the boat ride to Delos (so unorganized on the cruise ships part), our tour guide made it so much better and enjoyable, it made up for the time lost waiting for the boat ride. So many kitties.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

5 out of 5
Booked a tour with the ship. Ancient Corinth & Canal Crossing. Took a boat ride on the canal. Then went to an archeological site. So much history!! So many doggies!

Rhodes, Greece

5 out of 5
Beautiful!! No excursion. Explore on our ow

Santorini, Greece

5 out of 5
Booked a tour with the ship. Charming Oia village. Beautiful!! Got to see a lot of blue domes.. hung around for a spectacular sunset!! While waiting for our cable car ride back to the ship.. here comes the donkey caravan ( there work day is OVER!! )

Souda (Chania), Crete

4 out of 5
Beautiful!! No excursion. Not enough time at this port. Only port where everyone try to maximize the short day, long line coming back onboard.

Valletta, Malta

5 out of 5
Beautiful!! No excursion. Explore on our own.

Messina, Sicily

5 out of 5
Beautiful!! No excursion. Did a hop on hop off in town. A must see.. the clock tower at 12 noon.

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
Beautiful!! Did an excursion (not with the ship). Went to the ruins in Pompeii, the Almafi coast.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We took our own luggage and we were off the ship and on to a shuttle bus in less than 15 minutes.
