Price, timings and ports of call were the reason we picked this cruise.

We flew from Atlanta to Milan on Turkish Airlines via Istanbul. Great airline. We spent 2 days in Milan and took morning train to Venice. Venice train terminal was bit confusing. But porters helped us out. After coming out of terminal we need to go right and cross nice size bridge. Kind of difficult to do with luggage. I do not know why they do not have a couple of feet of smoother area where we can drag our wheeled luggage instead of bouncing every step.. ( Causing destruction of the luggage and the steps) We hired a porter for 20 Euro to take our luggage to People Mover ( TRAM) to the port. Tickets were 1.5 E per person.. We had to walk a bit with luggage to get to RCI facility. It was very well organized. Please print out the Luggage tags and check in documents. It took about an hour to get through but places to sit and cold water was provided.

The cruise was great, entertainment was bit lacking. Did not care for circus type of entertainers ( Sorry People). I would love for some single or duo singers instead a team of singers and dancers.

Cabin Review

Family Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin FO

Do not remember the cabin number but as I had gotten the deal it was on Deck # 2. ( $800.00 per person) Lowest of the ship for the passengers. It had a nice size window. Our cabin steward was very good and kept bringing us ice as requested.

Room was small than again we were only there to sleep and take shower. Our hotel room in Paris was no bigger than this room. We went out at every port, when we returned our room was clean and bed was made.
