About the author: I've been cruising with RCCL (and only RCCL) for the past 5 years and I'm currently an Emerald member in their Crown & Anchor society. So far I've sailed on Splendour, Adventure, Serenade, Navigator and now Harmony.
For this vacation I booked an oceanview balcony stateroom on deck 9, including full round trip air and bus transportation.
RCCL did a great job moving people between Barcelona airport and cruise port terminal. Overall, we didn't have to wait for too long. After picking up your luggage, you find a cruise line representative pretty fast and they direct you to an assembly point and walk you through the airport. For taking the bus ride to the cruise port terminal you need a voucher, that we unfortunately forgot to print, but it was no problem at all. The lady guiding us to the bus simply put down our stateroom numbers and sorted things out later.
Modern cabin with large TV left nothing to be desired for that category. Stateroom attendant did an excellent job!
Very busy city. Took an open bus tour.
Just checked out La Spezia. Nothing to see there.
Took a ride on that petit train thing. Got a great view over the city. You see several homeless people and beggars.
Nice port.
Have been there before. Didn't have a chance to check it out this time though. Definitely worth your while.
