Vibe bartenders and waiters were the best I’ve ever experienced. Tracelie and Andre especially. Irvin in main dining room was also so pleasant and accommodating. Made every meal we had with him so lovely.

Everything clean.

All clean but clicking noise that they said was normal was very annoying.

Ports of call

TRIESTE (VENICE), ITALY Did not visit port

Just got on ship

Ravenna, Italy

3 out of 5
Took us to a town that was essentially closed during time we were there. Although we made most of it it was mediocre at best.

Split, Croatia

Great beach. Also went on our own to have a fabulous early dinner.

Beautiful. Wish we had more time here.

Stayed on ship. Concerned about anti semitism

Istanbul, Turkey

3 out of 5
The add ons for chairs was outrageous pricing. Would not go again.

Needed to get home
