Review summary

A great way to see the Greek Islands. This itinerary has been on list for years. I’m glad that I finally did it!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We were booked in a suite and received excellent service

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We ate mostly in the specialty restaurants. The Bistro, Carney’s and Tepanyki were wonderful. La Cucina was disappointing, the service was extremely slow. I didn’t care for the menu changes that they made since my last sailing. O’sheehans food was terrible.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Played Deal/No Deal. It was fun. Played Bingo and participated in trivia.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows were excellent. Music in bars not as good as I’ve seen.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
One of the best room stewards that we’ve had. Waiters were all friendly and provided excellent service. The Butler and Concierge were not up to par from other sailings.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I was on this ship before they refurbished it and now after. I love the changes.

Cabin / Stateroom

Ship tip

You need to enjoy a medium sized ship.

Ports of call

Venice, Italy

5 out of 5
This was our embarkation port. We spent 4 days in Venice before our cruise and loved it.

BAR, MONTENEGRO Did not visit port

Venice port made us leave late and we weren’t going to have enough time to tender in this port.

Corfu, Greece

5 out of 5
We did the beach excursion. Nice resort very beautiful.

Santorini, Greece

5 out of 5
It’s as beautiful as the pictures. Did a bus tour and had plenty of time on our own.

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5
We liked this port. Didn’t book an excursion we were able to walk around on our own.

Argostoli, Kefalonia, Greece

5 out of 5
Another port that we loved walking around in.

Dubrovnik, Croatia

5 out of 5
We did a tour inn this port. We visited the old city, another small town and a wine a cheese stop. Loved this port!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
I thought there should have been a priority area after you got off the ship.
