Family just finished a wonderful (first ever) cruise- sailed on Aug 3 from Barcelona. Ports of call ideal, excursion tours well organized and food good- all fresh, plenty of variety and made on board. We loved it! Staff very professional. The ship very comfortable and clean!- a nice size that we were able to negotiate quickly. The entertainment was also good. Bravo to Mercedes, the cruise director, and all of the team. The 70's night was a blast! Lots of things to do. Thank you to Alan (stateroom attendant) for helping to keep us comfortable- 4 of us in a room! Slept comfortably with little noise heard from other guests. This will be a hard vacation to top. The only negative that stands out for me would be real plants in the solarium instead of plastic would be a bonus. Highly recommend to cruisers who want to show their teens many countries and cultures in an efficient way. Enjoy!
