First, we enjoyed the cruise, as much for its amazing itinerary as anyhting else. The Greek and Turkish ancient (Greek/Roman) history that we learned so much about as kids, came to life.

The ship itself is really nice, a good size, comfortable and with excellent spaces. Food in the dining room was first class, although the menu each night is quite limited and needs expanding by adding a few standard or regular menu items to be available every night.

Wine is hellishly expensive, so much so that we hardly bothered to have any, other than what we took on board. Other drinks are also priced on the high side, but not as much as the wine. There were also no happy hours (disappointing).

Cabin Review

Balcony

Good size and well laid out cabin. Bed was comfortable and the cabin steward was efficient.

Great value tour that took us to the to the Acropolis and to Knossos

Good overview of the island and the town. Plenty of time left to enjoy the old town - coffee and lunch.
