We chose this cruise because it ticked all our boxes. It went from Athens to Venice. It stopped at Dubrovnik and Split. For me it meant seeing the Croatian coast. This cruise was everything we expected it to be. We were first time cruisers. I had to ask the cleaner if we paid for meals. I was a complete newbie. For me the Lido was fine. It was fantastic to us. We had just completed touring Eastern Europe with carry on luggage. What a wonderful time too. We had see south western England, Berlin and Dussledorf and then Prague and Budapest so this just fitted in fine. We did not go into the flash restaurant as our given time was 8.30 pm and that was too late for us. We also saw the menu on offer and decided that the buffet was just fine and it was. I really enjoyed both the swimming pool and spa. It was all good. I thought that the excursions were expensive and perhaps not worth it. Yet we had a wonderful experience at Dubrovnik on tuk tuks going around there. Worth it

We were on this for a week and it worked well for us. Our first experience and it was all positive. Thank you
