Maybe we weren't old enough. Not enough to do on the boat, beds were not very comfortable, and the included tours were pretty much a march through the town with about 30 to 45 minutes of free time before loading back on the bus. The upper deck was closed for 5 days due to the water levels and the bridges, so felt a bit trapped inside.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very easy. Met at the airport and transported directly to the ship
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food is excellent and just right size portions with lots of variety. Never got board. The oatmeal cookies in the coffee area are the best.
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
No onboard activites to speak of. The one I did attend - glass blowing was fantastic. Evening activites were sparsely attended and not very interesting.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
Did we have entertainment on the ship? There was a piano player for background music on some days.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Maybe because we had a ship change, but the staff never got to know us - I never met the room steward.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Very small, but I expected that. Loved that we could open the sliding glass door for fresh air and look at the stars at night.
Ship tip
The included excursions are a march through the town with little time for shopping. If you want a more indepth experience, then you need to sign up and pay for the optional excursions.
My husband did the tour in the morning, then I went in the afternoon. There were musicians and choir practicing in the Cathedral for that evening's performance. It was Sunday - so no shops open.
Most beautiful city. My favorite tour was the Up Close and Personal. We took the Metro and walked through the city and went places the bus group did not go.
