This was my first cruise and definitely will not be my last. From Venice to Greece, I was amazed. The cruise ship is very impressive although in hind sight wished I would've selected a larger ship. Never book this cruise without the alcohol package. Overall, really wonderful time. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, activities and various things to do on the boat. I can't wait for my next cruise. Royal Caribbean is awesome. So many bars and restaurants, the food was better than most fancy places at home, and the rooms although kind of small, were actually really comfortable. Plenty of shows and entertainment. Plenty of games and prizes. The casino was really fun and included more than just slot machines. They even offered small sessions to teach some of the games. There was just so much to do on this boat, we actually contemplated skipping ports to enjoy the boat more.

We loved this cruise. If you're reading this to decide...stop reading and book before it's too late. if you meet a bar tender named Mary Bakos, tell her Richard, Tay, Eric and Ivan said hello.

Cabin Review

Large Interior Stateroom

Cabin K

Not too shabby for a room. Don't pack heavy, but if you do, empty all of your suit cases on day 1. Shower is a little small, but it's a boat. The bed was comfy, nice tv, and a room safe included. We loved it.

Port Reviews

Venice

Venice is a very beautiful place to visit. Make sure you take an extra day or two to see the sites and walk around or jump on a boat.

Dubrovnik

If you are a Game of Thrones fan you need to see this town. We stood in the very spot were Serci was drawing her map. We walked inside the castle here. Didn't even know this was part of the trip. What a fantastic surprise.

Kotor

Hopefully its not raining when you get here. There is a site that has at least 35 minutes worth of steps. The top of this place has some breath-taking views.

Santorini

Some of the best pictures I have ever taken. This place is a must-see

Katakolon (Olympia)

Wasn't really happy with this port. Kind of smelly and not rally a lot to see immediately. I suggest taking the train soon as you get off the boat.
