Freedom of the Seas Review
Rating by category
Additional details
Chosen because of the itinerary and also because the ship is larger than any we have been on. Travelled with husband, daughter and her husband on their first cruise.
Embarkation was fast and efficient. We had never experienced the shopping street - Royal Promenade - before and certainly an experience. Particularly nice to sit at the Café and watch the world go by.
We used the buffet - the Windjammer - for our meals but the others used the restaurant for their evening meal and enjoyed the experience.
Cabin Review
Interior Stateroom
As with all cabins, the bathroom is small but quite adequate. The room itself has a Queen bed which is huge and also a two-seater settee. There is also very adequate wardrobe space and drawers.
Port Reviews
Villefranche
Got the train to Monaco and then took the hop on hop off bus. Would really recommend it as it is the best way to get around Monaco and see all the sights. The bus stops at the station so convenient for getting back there in time to return by train to the ship.
La Spezia (Cinque Terre)
Walk off the ship and get the free shuttle through the terminal. There is a lovely promenade to walk along and see the many yachts and it isn't far to walk to the shops either and some great bargains!
Naples
Got a taxi to take us around and see the narrow streets that buses can't go along. A bit pricey but well worth it.
