Review summary

It was very clean and visually was attractive.

Ports of call

Katakolon (Olympia), Greece

3 out of 5

The tours were to big. It was extremely hard to hear our tour guide. She was nice but with so many tours going on in this area from many ships the sizes of the tours should have been smaller. I can't imagine what it is like during the season.

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

3 out of 5

Acropolis and shopping areas was a long walk to the public transportation if not taking a tour. We were told 20 minutes but you don't really know where exactly you are going and it took 45 minutes to find but only 35 minutes with brisk walking to get back.

Mykonos, Greece

Was a very beautiful island. We could easily tour ourselves around. We were bused to town which cost $8.00 each where as if we had been tendered it would have been free.

The tour was great and we had a fabulous tour guide. When first on the bus she talked a bit and just needed 1 question to be asked and then she felt she had an audience and told us a lot of history, etc.
