The positive report is the embarkation and debarkation were the easiest I have ever experienced. It is a small ship so not thousands of people to move.
You do surrender your passport which makes me nervous, but worked out okay.
My husband had to see the ship's doctor, first time ever on a cruise, and that was a good experience.
Seeing the cave where the Apostle John wrote the book of Revelation was amazing. The monastery was the most wonderful surprise.
