We chose this cruise for the ports of call and had a lovely time! Our highlight on the ship was our wonderful cabin, a Jr suite cabin 1042....very spacious, walk in closet, tub/shower large bathroom, large sitting area. Our cabin attendant was excellent. We were very pleased with the quality of food. Bring binoculars with you on this trip, the ship sails very close to many islands and shore all week. The island of Stromboli was smoldering as we sailed by. The ship also sails by Sicily twice. We enjoyed getting on the public bus in Santorini and had no wait for the cable car (going or coming back).The public bus was easy to use, paid for ticket on the bus.

Mykonos we met a private family on the island and took a wonderful mountain bike ride around the island. Athens we used the X80 express bus outside the cruise ship terminal to get to bus stop near the Acropolis. This bus was also easy to use, 4.50 euros per person round trip ticket use all day. Pay for the ticket at the ticket booth just outside the ship terminal.Have exact change to buy the ticket. Download Rick Steve's travel apps to your smart phone to enjoy a wonderful walking tour of the Acropolis. We used these apps for all over Italy and it enhanced our experience!

A great week!
