Review summary

It was amazing and your add fulfilled its obligation "I came back new". Thank you!!! It was beyond my wildest dream to have been on a ship like Princess. My standards are high now so I won't be able to go backwards. I was so amazed by it all to even have a balcony. Thank you!!!

Amazing!

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Did one ballroom dance class - the Cha Cha Cha. I would of liked more of that not interested in Line Dancing. There was another ballroom dance which I missed. There were no arty activities to do - like draw/paint etc. I did one origami class out of two. More of the above activities during sailing time after the daily tours ashore would have be good other than just watching one show after another.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was clean and always cleaned for us by our wonderful room stewardess. The linen was beautiful and soft and clean but only one complaint I found my bed very lumpy and hard to sleep on it reminded me of my old bed I got rid of last August. So my sleep was very uncomfortable every night. Plus I use a king single the bed was a little too small for me.

Enjoy!

We were there for 3 night before embarkment. We did our own excursion and saw everything we could see in 2 full days.

Messina, Sicily

1 out of 5
It was a Sunday everything was closed and our Hop on Hop off but was not the best. We booked this tour from home. The second visit we tried to do our own thing this time on a weekday and everything was closed again during their siesta time. It was so boring in Messina, Sicily.

Kotor, Montenegro

I was impressed as I was not looking forward to going there 3 times during our cruise. I loved all the little alley ways. Did a tour this first time which we booked from the ship. The second visit we did our own thing at those lovely alley ways. The 3rd time we did a hop on hop off bus which we booked ashore.

Corfu, Greece

Souda (Chania), Crete

Booked a tour on the ship for the beach. The water was too rough for me with rock to fall on and the sand is horrible. But it was a lovely day in the sunshine not too hot.

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5

We were out quick and easily not fussing around as we took our own luggage with us and we left early before the crowds.
