Sail Date: Mar 2012

This was our second Regent cruise, and the first on Voyager. We selected a standard balcony suite on deck seven. No need for a butler on Regent, as the housekeeping and room service staff take care of everything, except perhaps that extra night in the speciality restaurant, that you want, but don't want to do it for yourself.

The cruise from start to finish was well done. We arrived a day early and were picked up at the Dubai airport, and taken to the pre-cruise hotel, which was the very nice Intercontinental Festival Island. A nice city tour was provided, and the next day we boarded the ship. At the end, we stayed over in Athens for a day due to flight capacity issues, and it was a nice bonus. Regent took care of us the whole time, and then delivered us to the Athens airport for the trip home. This cruise line is all inclusive start to finish, and there is always someone from Regent there.

We visited 10 ports in 17 days, and some of the excursions lasted up to 13 hours. Excursions ranged from good to excellent, and there were additional charges for some of the really long ones. In some of the ports we visited there wasn't much to see, so excursions were just narrated drive throughs that took only four hours. If it was there to be seen, you saw it. This was particularly true of Muscat, Oman. I would have rather that we drove around in circles at sea, but after all it was the capital of Oman.
