Review summary

It was a nice cruise with some improvement to be done on the ship dancers, activities onboard and menu variety. We loved ports of Ponta Delgada( Azores), Livorno, Malta, and Madeira, Portugal. We enjoyed the Olympia and the Mercouri Vineyard tour. Great fun, museum and tour of estate. We did miss not visiting the ports in France. We believe it was a good value, if they keep the quality up!

Need better variety!

Entertainment

Ship's dancers didn't have the "passion"! They seemed to be robotic!

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

The cabin steward, exercise pro (Oliver) and the shop people were great......need better customer service at office, casino and land tour director.
