Sail Date: May 2017
Cabin: Balcony Stateroom with Shower

This was our first ever cruise. The most expensive holiday we have ever taken - the holiday of a life time and highly recommended by friends who have cruised before. Staff on board were highly trained, professional and hard working - can't praise them highly enough - especially our cabin steward. We chose a Mediterranean cruise visiting Rome, Florence and Sicily as we desperately wanted to visit the iconic attractions (as shown in brochure) So upset when we attended the on board talk about the places we were to visit.

Cagliari - Friday - Amazing!!! Brilliant guide. Great tour.

Rome - Sunday when Vatican City Museum, Basillica, and Sistine Chapel closed to us. Also - this is first Sunday of the month where all major state owned attractions are free to visit (to allow local people to enjoy) great idea - but was explained to us that we stood 'no chance' of getting into any of them due to extra long queues.

Cabin Review

Balcony Stateroom with Shower

Cabin JA

Lovely cabin. Fantastic steward. Cabin was spotlessly clean, comfortable - everything we might need. Balcony covered in rust. Bracket missing on top rail. Other rails badly rusted - one 3/4 rusted away.

Port Reviews

Rome (Civitavecchia)

We were at Rome on Sunday - Sistine Chapel. St. peter's Basilica, Vatican Museums all closed to us. Also First Sunday of the month so all major, iconic, state owned venues are free to visit so five times as many people queuing - we were told at on board talk that we stood 'no chance' of getting into any of them. broken hearted.
