Review summary

Just got back from an 8 day Adriatic Sea round trip cruise from Venice on the Star. Ship had recently been refurbished, and we found it to be clean and in overall good shape. Food was good. We ate every night in one of the main dining rooms. We opted for the drink package and $50 a day credit for excursions as our incentives when booking. My only complaint with the ship is on the one day we chose not to do an excursion, you had to early in the morning line up for tender tickets to get off the ship to ensure you could get off in the morning. Without that numbered ticket, you had to wait for general disembarkation. Thought that was their way of punishing you for not booking through them. They could easily offer those tickets the night before. We enjoyed all the ports, but my whole group thought Montenegro was beautiful but time could have been better spent with another day in Athens. All the ports were beautiful and included Dubrovnik, Croatia, Split, Croatia, and the Greek islands of Kefalonia and Santorini, as well as Athens. We left and returned to Venice, which was my favorite of all. Wish I would have spent more than one night! From our arrival at the airport, we took a regular taxi for 45 euros, and he had us at the terminal in less than 30 minutes. From our hotel to the airport, we took a private water taxi for 130 euros. We thought the price was well worth it for the experience. There were four of us each time. Embarkation was painless, and we booked their Venice Highlights tour to be one of the first off the ship. Our balcony room was comfortable, and would highly recommend this ship and itinerary.
