The 3 days in Israel

The itinerary was perfect for us giving us a chance to see Athens before sailing then 3 days in Israel docked in Haifa. The size of the cabin and Oceania's reputation aided in the decision.

When we planned this we were looking for something going to Israel and the length of time we were going to be there was the most attractive aspect.

Cruising to the Greek islands was an added bonus.

The Oceania staff was superb both in the cabin and all the other venues. The were happy and courteous

We traveled with friends and made new freiends.

We found the food good and the specialty restaurants superb.

The ship was clean and the shops adequate

We were usually too tired after touring and eating late to avail ourselves of any of the entertainment

Our shore excursions were done privately and I think were as good as or better than Oceania's and less expensive
