We chose this cruise because it had seven stops in 10 days. All the ports were beautiful especially Santorini, Greece, Mykonos, Greece, Kotor, Montenegro and of course Venice, Italy. The food was good. The service in the main dining room was very slow so most of the time we ate in the buffet. Entertainment in the theater was just so so. Live dance music was average (the Filipino band was the best). The calypso band was awful! The large wood dance floor in the Shall We Dance lounge was underutilized, while the small sticky marble dance floor in the Centrum (Atrium) was were most of the live bands played. None of the Jacuzzis in the outdoor pool area worked (i.e. no bubbles)! The Solarium pool water was cold! Besides that it was a great trip. Don't bother paying for any of the expensive shore excursions offered by through Royal Caribbean. You can do it all yourself much cheaper by taking local transportation when you get to each port. Happy cruising!
