Sail Date: Sep 2016
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

As soon as we entered our cabin bathroom we smelled sulfur& chlorine. Our six table mates did also but none of the employees seemed to notice. We had a lovely cabin with a balcony,well worth the splurge. Our cabin stewart was very nice,as was our head waiter.

Food on this cruise was mostly average. One of my main complaints was the difficulty getting good drinking water;several areas would not fill water bottles. You had to go to an area 4flights up & the other end of the ship. They wanted you to BUY bottled water.

The shore excursions were very pricey, we chose to do only 4.They were not very helpful with info if you wern't buying their trip!

Deluxe Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin E1

Cabin was a decent size with space for everything,lots of nooks. Nice size balcony with table & 2 chairs-not lounge chairs.

Port Reviews

Rome (Civitavecchia)

toured Rome on our own,saw all the sights & still spent less than RC was charging.

Taormina (Messina)

Hop On&Off buses here to see anything here without giving RC your money. Center of town is walking distance from pier.
