Review summary

The Voyager of the Sea's is a very nice ship. Being almost 10 years old, she shows some signs of being ready for a bit of a face lift, but it doesn't detract from the bit. The staff is top notch, they are clean, kind, attentive, and always smiling. The food was on par with the typical cusine I've had on other cruiselines, with the exception of their Portifino restaurant, which was top notch. For the $20/person you'd be a fool to pass this up. The bars are all very nice and with the promenade layout having most of them centered on the 4th and 5th deck is a major plus. The entertainers in the bars are good, and the on board entertainment was OK.

Ports of call

Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy

It's impossible to see everything in Rome in one day. Saddly, I have to reccomend that you skip the Vatican tour as it will suck up a few hours of your precious time and rushing around from site to site is no fun at all.
Don't Miss: Colleseo

Villefranche-Sur-Mer, France

Don't Miss: Monaco is well worth the 20 minute train ride

Livorno (Florence & Pisa), Italy

Naples, Italy

Skip the boat excursion and hire a private tour for the Amalfi Coast. AMAZING

Palermo, Sicily

They should get rid of this port and spend an extra day in Rome.

Pros: All the cities

Cons: Lack of time
