Except the consierage all staff was excellent. The special room did not add much, no answers to simple questions. But loved using the front deck of Canyon Ranch

Ship tip

I never believed a buffet dinner could be fantastic. They placed food on your plate. Carried to your table and the choices were fabulous

Catania, Sicily

Ugly city not too much to do. Got to spend time in Taormina at end of trip. Better port. So if your ship lands in Catania take transport to Taormina

Took the Hop on Hop off and spent most of our time in Piran. Wish it was a longer time frame because we were in port a long time

Yes, they don't advertise about entertainment must, so I'll go with the same attitude. Thanks!
