Will write the good things first not that it will take too long We had a mini suite and it was clean and tidy by our cabin steward WILSON who was very pleasant and helpful and was always around when needed even coming to our add to get my mobility scooter in and out of the cabin. I found that the cabins rather dark and dingy with all the brown woodwork and I have to say through out the ship the furnishings and paint work could do with a good make over. The seating areas in some part of the ship were very hard and worn out

I will now go on to the food we were both very very disappointed with the food it looked good on the menu but when it got to the table it looked and tasted like it had come out of a microwave The menus did not change, from one day to the next. The Garden Café was just like feeding time at the zoo and most of the food was not hot, The best thing we found at the café was the soft ice cream. The other place to eat which we had been told about was The Blue Lagoon Café where they serve you a cooked breakfast and later they have a menu with Fish and Chips this café has a separate kitchen from the main one so your food is made to order I have to say that this was our main eating place on the ship We did try the Italian on the last night which was OK for an extra $15

I will go on to the shore excursions we had booked most of them before the cruise but went to check on board if I could take my collapsible mobility scooter the first week all went well had no problem and we did all the tours as we had pre boked we knew that I could not take the scooter on the Tender which was only at Santorini so we just went on shore and did a short walk, The 2nd week we had the problem as we had been told by the Excursions desk it would not be possible to take the scooter on any of the excursions so as I can walk short distances we decided still to go on the ones we booked only to find out that the Athens trip we booked had a person in a wheel chair and the tour guide was waiting for a person with a scooter. !!!I did complain at the desk and was given a refund and was then told I could take the scooter on the rest of the booked excursions.

Cabin Review

The cabin was fine a little smaller than on Princess cruises the sofa looked a little tired and rather hard to sit on
