Athens (Piraeus) Cruise Reviews

We chose this route because it would allow us to see multiple places we really wanted to visit (Athens, Split and Dubrovnik) and due to my husband’s energy levels linked to health we decided on a cruise. I saw Virgin Voyages cruises through influencers I follow on Instagram and decided to book. I found a great deal online and started to get excited once I saw how informative their app was. It ...

I haven't been to the Adriatic and it was in my bucket list so I was excited to see this itinerary and grabbed it. From the moment we embarked, we were amazed by the courteousness and friendliness of the crew. Our room with that balcony was gorgeous with its modern set up. Moving on, the food was excellent. Each restaurant we tried was fantastic. The shows were one of a kind, never seen in ...

We initially went on a Viking cruise per the recommendations of my sister and brother-in-law who are Viking veterans. We have never wanted to go on a cruise before because all we have ever seen about cruising. Are they hordes of people, waiting in line to do everything and getting nickels and dimes for all activities and extra events. We were so glad that we did go on a Viking cruise for our first ...

We traveled on a River Cruise with Viking in the past. We were very impressed with the service offered we wanted to try an Ocean cruise. The Viking team showed up with the same type service so it was easy to see it’s part of the company’s culture. The cabins cleaned twice a day, the ship was always clean, and the restaurants top notch. In the restaurants the food was well prepared and tasted ...

The destinations were breathtaking and filled with adventure, interacting and learning from the locals, their way of life and their history. Every port and island was so different and had its own unique beauty and history. Viking was first-class with a gracious crew. They were always accessible, helpful and made us feel at home onboard. Every meal was delicious, featuring local and world cuisines ...

This was not our first voyage with Virgin but it was great being on a new ship and the new entertainment is fantastic. Persephone is a stand-out show with great circus on display and an amazing singer. Mind Mangler and Miss Behave Show are very funny. We also had Tape Face as the festival stage guest act and he is fantastic. The new dinner show, Another Rose was great with fantastic aerial acts ...

First cruise, was so nervous. Everything I have behaved about cruises puts me off. Filing in and out like a herd of cattle, central times dining, limited options for food. Unclean etc etc. Well let me tell you Richard Branson and team figured this thing out. I think traditional cruisers probably won’t like Virgin Voyages. We loved it!!! The boarding process was easy. We opted for premium ...

This was our first time cruising ever. We travelled around the Greek islands. We were not 100% sure what to expect. But what we got was way above our expectations. The boat was fantastic. Our Rockstar suite was amazing and so was our Rockstar agent. The whole ship was spotlessly clean. Staff are super friendly. The food is amazing, with a selection of different restaurants. As a Rockstar you gain ...

What a fantastic week we had on the Resilient Lady. The ship is beautiful and well designed: all crew members without exception were smiling and gave great service with a sense of humour. Food all very good and so much choice. Favourite restaurant was Extra Virgin, the Italian, very closely followed by the Wake where I had some of the best fillet steak I’ve ever eaten. Lots of choices for snacks ...

It’s true, the Infinity needs an overhaul but it still is a beautiful ship but the crew is what was most impressive. We were told it is going into dry dock in January for an overhaul. We are long time cruisers and have been sailing with Celebrity since before they were purchased by RCCL, almost 30 years ago. We chose this itinerary because we hadn’t yet been to Croatia. Leaving from Athens ...
