Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Would have liked brewed unsweetened iced tea.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Great variety. Excellent performers. Didn't care for the British Invasion because it was loud and too much going on at one time. Costumes and sets were excellent.

Service and Staff

We were there in the 70's and wanted to see how it had changed. Enjoyed our return visit to Cavtat where we stayed before. Could have done without the time spent at the folkloric show...rather have the time in town.

Santorini, Greece

We didn't take an optional tour, so we can't speak of those. The town of Fira was definitely not worth the long wait for the cable car. 8 ships were in...bad planning!
