For starters, this cruise was highly recommended to us in Oct.2009 from someone who had just returned and could not stop raving about it. Since we were about to celebrate our 50th anniversary we thought this trip would be perfect. After we booked the trip we met several other people who had taken this cruise and EVERYONE had raved about it, so here we are. It must be noted that we worked very hard before the trip comparing shore excursions, taxi rides, cruise critic reviews, etc. and it was all worth the effort, without a glitch.

We arrived a day early and were met at the airport by a car from our hotel in Civitavecchia, Hotel Traiano. We shared the car ride with another couple also going on the same cruise. The hotel was charming, very European, included a wonderful breakfast and the price was right. That night we walked around the town, had an authentic pizza and gelato. The next day the hotel provided a free shuttle service to the port.

Embarkation was a cake walk. Quick and expedient. You would never know that 2800 guests were going on this cruise. We were greeted by the friendliest crew, went directly to our cabin where we were met by our Rowelito, our cabin steward. Later on in the cruise my husband named him "the hardest working man

Deluxe Veranda 2A

Cabin 2A

Although we liked the location of our cabin it was a bit small but adequate. Thanks to the storage space above the bed we had enough room. Having been on several cruises before, we are used to the fact that cabins are not very spacious, but it was new and clean and we had a wonderful steward - and a great veranda.
