I have only been on one other cruise (RCI Voyager of the Seas transatlantic Nov 2007) but had loved the experience so much that I was eager to go on another. This one seemed ideal as I live close to Barcelona. What better than a trip from home to Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt and Malta ending up back on my doorstep - with not an aeroplane in sight?
My partner and I are in our late 30's / early 40's, enjoy sightseeing, good food, lots of booze, a mixture of music, comedy etc....Pretty undemanding.
Embarkation was very easy and smoothly managed by NCL. We made our way to our stateroom and within an hour of reaching the port were on our way to lunch in the buffet style Garden Cafe.
Compact cabin. Good closet space, great shower. OK sized balcony in a quiet oart of the ship.
