The crew - from maintenance and housekeeping to the captain and his officers - and their commitment to customer service made the difference for us. It felt as if every Royal Caribbean employees was working to ensure that we had a great experience.
We enjoyed meals at two of the speciality restaurants-Chops and Giovanni's Table-in addition to lovely dinners in the main dining room and breakfast/lunch in Windjammer. The Champagne Brunch with a behind-the-scenes tour of the galley with Executive Chef Andrew Carmichael was a highlight of the cruise.
We booked one shore excursion with RC because of the limited time in Gibraltar and were so glad we did-it was excellent. While we never made it to any evening shows in the Pacifica Theater, we did enjoy the nightly music in the Schooner Bar.
Comfortable for two of us. Loved having a balcony!
A very walkable port. We walked from the ship up to Gibralfaro Castle then down to Alcazaba-a good bit of uphill walking but well worth the effort.
Nice walk from the ship to El Morro and then back through Old San Juan.
