Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Waiters were aware and very responsive to dietary restrictions. The only improvement I see is better labeling of major alergens on menus and in buffet would be nice.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Other cruise ships I've been on had more major productions on their stages. The entertainment on this ship seemed to be focused more in the bars. Organizing the tour groups could have been done more efficiently.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The staff was very friendly and willing to help with any questions we had. We had party decorations arranged and questions about the food choices were handled well.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Public areas were very clean and easy to find. There were many entertainment choices for all ages.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Some of the furniture in the rooms was old and needed to be replaced.

Tour guild missed a few items but we learned from people in other groups. Extra stops at the Panathinaiko Stadium and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier made the tour outstanding.
