Review summary

During our voyage, the Middle Eastern leg of the journey was unexpectedly cancelled and substituted with a revised itinerary featuring the same ports, minus two. While understandable, it would have been ideal if alternative destinations were selected to maintain the original excitement and variety. Furthermore, we felt that the brief, single-day stops at certain ports were insufficient, leaving us longing for more time to explore and experience the local culture.
