We were a group of six friends and loved being together on this cruise. I love Rome, great city to start in for a Mediterranean cruise. Itinerary was great visiting Barcelona, Florence and Ponta Delgada in the Azore Islands.

This was my 18th cruise. Never had a favorite (they’ve all been fun) until now. The beautiful unspoiled Atlantic Ocean is a sight to behold. 3 sea days from Barcelona to the Azores and 6 more to Ft. Lauderdale. Nowhere else can you see the world so unspoiled. Venus was so bright it reflected off the ocean.
We traveled with another couple and took advantage of many dining options. We ...
Visited relatives in Barcelona, and chose to return to USA via repositioning cruise. Great choice, Cruise was super especially the attentive and friendly service of ship's staff. Our cabin was very spacious and accommodating for all purposes, and the balcony was good sized: a real plus! We will do this again! Dining was excellent--we chose formal, but sampled other venues. The casino was well ...
We chose this cruise mainly based on the itinerary but also our only previous cruise experience had been with Princess on an Alaskan cruise and we had a great time. Overall we had a wonderful trip and really didn't have any of the negative experiences/issues I had read about on this site. We had one of the club class mini suites which has a more central location on the ship but the main perk was ...

We went on our 1st cruise with Princess on our honeymoon and wanted to renew our vows on our 30 th Anniversary with Princess again. The service we experienced the 1st time was the deciding factor to use princess the second time around. Our best friends accompanied us. We arrived in Greece two days before we sailed and got to see the sites of Athens. When we arrived at the port we found it was very ...
We travel with Princess frequently and picked this cruise because we could celebrate our golden wedding anniversary during the cruise. The itinerary was similar to the cruise we took 10 years ago, with a few different stops. We did the traditional dining and had a wonderful time with the 3 other couples at our table.
The ship was in great shape and we had upgraded to a full suite which was ...
