Chose the cruise due to the good ports, some new to us and some we had not visited for several years. Ports did not disappoint, we tend to do our own trips however had good P&O excursions to Capri ( despite the whinging from passengers re tendering ) and wine tasting in Livorno. Embarkation and disembarkation went smoothly, would have been better if some passengers listened to the instructions. Varied our dining in the Restaurant, Conservatory and our favourite Beach House, all of a good standard. You may notice a theme on the previous items and that is that some passengers appear to constantly complain which was bit annoying for those of us who where on holiday!. Found the waiters and service excellent. Went to a performances, classic guitar and ventriloquist where excellent. Comedian not the best. Overall a good holiday and we are looking to book again for next year. All I would ask others is if you did not enjoy yourself please try a coach holiday.
