Review summary

Simply an awesome cruise from all perspectives! All connections were on time. All the shore excursions were wonderful. The skip-the-line tour of Vatican City and the Tuscan Farmhouse tour standout. Our ship room was very comfortable, always had a wonderful view from our balcony, and all staff were very friendly. We fully enjoyed ourselves. Awesome!
