Service and Staff

3 out of 5

would be 5 stars but our room steward Gloria was horrible. we had to ask for everything. we also were not given any information regarding our one excursion we booked through Royal. had to find out when and where to meet and they had to look us up when we got there. all are other excursions were booked through and were excellent and much smaller groups.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

the ship was overly clean as they had an outbreak the week before. our room was still dirty with hair from the last guests

Ship tip

book your excursions through anyone but royal. visit Monica and Marius in Schooners and ask for a LUCAS LONG ISLAND.

Ports of call

Venice, Italy

if you want an ultimate dining experience at a Michelin star restaurant that wont break the bank get a reservation at Santa Marina. $80 pp full menu tasting. so much food and so worth it. and do the Murana, Brrano, Torcello day trip. worth the $20 pp for sure. can book at the boat dock near St. Marks

this is the only excursion we booked through the ship and we were herded on a big bus and made to shop in their recommended shops. the winery was old and moldy and musty and not very good wine. had no time to do any shopping either
