Our MDR servers were the best we've had for a number of years and the staff in general was friendly and welcoming. Felt like old school RCI.

Istanbul, Turkey

The whole reason we booked this itinerary. We creamed everything we wanted to do into two days here and it was worth every minute.

Kavala, Greece

5 out of 5

We are pretty sure we were the first RCI so ever to stop here. It wasn't on our original itinerary and was added about 2 months before sailing. Excursion selecting was limited so we just hopped a taxi to the local beach and it was gorgeous. Lots of fun.
