We were a huge bunch on the ship, and loved it! Freestyle cruising, the choice of ports, the variety of food & drinks on offer, the breadth of activities, wonderful views all around - everybody had good feedback to share at the end of the trip. The ship literally became our home for the week, away from land / normal routines, living in a cocoon of our own. People were singing, dancing, eating, drinking, swimming, watching shows, enjoying the views of the sea, exploring various towns and simply relaxing! The Italian towns (Rome, Pisa, Florence, Pompeii, Naples) have their own charm while Cannes in France takes you to a different plane altogether. Palma de Majorca was a pleasant surprise. The cabins were comfortable and the service on the ship was impeccable. Pleasant staff members (especially the lady at the entrance of the 15h floor cafeteria who welcomed you with a sing-song style) added to the overall experience.
