Traveled with several friends. We had not been to the countries and ports previously so it was a tremendous new experience. The cabin rooms very nice and plenty of room. The food was outstanding with good variety. The food service staff were very accommodating to prepare dishes we wanted even though it may have not been on the days menu. Basically this is a cruise for older adults, not for children. The service from cruise team was amazing. I would suggest going a little later in the year as weather would be warmer. We had to wear coats each day. Outstanding educational experience. Extremely enjoyable and memorable. Great pics. We recommend adding on extra days on front and end of cruise to have time to experience some nearby areas. Suggest you go as a group... the ship has great gathering space and opportunity to relax and socialize at various times especially after dinner in the evening.
