I have been on 5 other cruises and I wanted to take my son(25) on a Mediterranean cruise. The Symphony is a wonderful ship . From the crew members who went above and beyond to make you happy to the activities onboard. Everything was fabulous! (I think the people who wrote the negative reviews were on a different ship!!)
The ship offers a number of different dining options and all of them were 5 stars! We loved going to the Windjammer for breakfast. Great assortment of food.
My son and I sat out by the pool. He went on all the watersides.
The cabin was great. I loved sitting out on the balcony watching the Mediterranean go by. We ate breakfast out there twice which was fun.
