Istanbul was great, we stayed at a hotel in the sultanahmet area, walking distance to hagia sophia, blue mosque, topi kapi, grand bazaar, and spice market.

food was alright, nothing oustanding, better than the ship food.

We wanted to go to turkuazoo but didn't have the time unfortunately

The excavated very well preserved ruins of the ancient city of ephesus, there is a lot to see as it used to be an important entire city.

very good place to kick back and relax.

in the summer even though it's hot all around other cities, as mykonos is right by the water, strong winds blow that heat away and it's very refreshing.

Everything you would want to see is pretty much walking distance, all the houses are very nicely painted, food was excellent, at the sandwich shop, bakery, and italian restaurant i went to.

I think everyone must see the acropolis when they are there, a very important place to our civilization. much of the temples have been restored, and it all looks great.

Food was pretty good, way better than the ship's food.

Very nice, we didn't walk up the wall going into the mountain, we did walk around the city front wall in old town.

Food was average (but way better than ship food), buildings are very well maintained nice place for pictures all around.

Even larger and nicer than kotor, food was average, nice laundry place right outside of old town good, place mid cruise to do laundry as laundry on ship is ridiculously expensive.

A lot to do and see but we were pretty tired from the heat from the previous 2 ports and didn't get to explore much. Lot of churches, and forts.

Food was under average

Villa d'este and Hadrian's villa in Tivoli.

Man they are very sensitive about photos and photo taking, we were stopped by people in both sites saying we can't take photos, but in hadrian's villa, when we confirmed whether we could or not with the administration, they let us, but by then we had to leave as we were on a strict schedule with our tour group.

Villa D'este however kept saying their director is the only one that can authorize and she wasn't there so no photos.

I mean what is the point of even going to these places if you can't take photos?

anchored in villefrance, tendered into the port, walked to train and trained 7 mins over to monaco.

monte carlo was great, excellent food, and very interesting to walk around. Even moreso if you like the grand prix and want to walk along the track. Casino was too fancy for me to enter, but views were very nice off the side of the casino area, especially when you go up to the palace, you can get a really good overview of most of montecarlo there.

We went to Joel Robuchon a 2 michelin star restaurant. It was the best food I've had in my life. It was modern french I believe and the light appetizers and main I ordered really suited my palate. Highly recommended, we made a reservation beforehand, but it seemed like they had a lot of tables so they may be able to accomodate lunch even with no reservations. I did overhear that dinner was fully booked for the next 3 days however, so it must be a popular spot at night.

walked around the city, a bit of the old port, took a bus up the hill to notre dame de la garde, a lot of cathedrals, palaces, and forts/castles to see, but very spread out. with 1 day you probably won't be able to see everything unless you are on a tight schedule with a excursion tour.

food was average
