Quick and seemless

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was high quality but expected more theme food options based on ports of cruise. Virgin Piña Colada excellent, creme brûlée lacking creme.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were small and only a few that didn’t have young kids. The adults pool was too small. Rock climbing challenging but fun.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Aqua Show, the ice skating show, and The Adult Comedy shows were magnificent- however, I really enjoyed my nap while watching CATS. Actors were great, but wrong show choice.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
From Karina Dangubic (stateroom attendant) to Levon and Sheena in THE Regalia Jewelry store were people that stood out to us.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great size rooms and loved the balcony size. Spent many morning entering ports of call with room service on the balcony.

Ship tip

Deck 6 is hard to maneuver. Doesn’t go entire length of ship.

Ports of call

Barcelona, Spain

5 out of 5
Started/ ended cruise at that port enjoyed the city

Palma De Mallorca, Balearic Islands

5 out of 5
Taste of Palma with our guide Juan was excellent. Went to so many food stops we couldn’t eat or drink any more! Beautiful town. Loved the cookies from the Convent of Santa Clara

Marseille (Provence), France

5 out of 5
Aix en Provence tour with guide Lucy was one of our favorites. She was full of knowledge AND drove us everywhere personally. Excellent tour guide.

La Spezia, Italy

4 out of 5
Pisa/Manarola with George and his pinwheel. Enjoyed Leaning Tower and Pisa. Manarola was beautiful except for the fact the bus last minute couldn’t go into the town and we had to take the train. But George made us feel comfortable taking the train and navigating rush hour in Italy. Tour even paid for our train use.

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

5 out of 5
Small Group Tour of Rome was the way to tour such a large city. Our driver , Vlad , maneuvered the streets magically. Enjoyed all aspects of the tour except that we stayed at the Spanish Steps too long. More time at the Vatican to enter the Basilica or Museums would have been a better use of time. Maybe more time in Roman Forum and ruins. Maybe even Pizza Navona. Really enjoyed the restaurant for lunch…La Botte Antica

Naples, Italy

4 out of 5
Surprisingly for the Port of Naples it appeared to be dirtier than expected. Silvia was a very nice guide who switched the tour order to fight the crowds at our destinations. Capri was beautiful and Pompeii was amazing as well. We were there the night Madonna had a personal tour for her 66th birthday.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Just as easy as getting on board. I liked being able to transport our own luggage from the boat.
