Sail Date: Nov 2019
Cabin: Mid-Ship Balcony

We chose this cruise specifically to visit the ports of Santorini & Mykonos. NCL advised us that they had cancelled three of the six advertised ports when we arrived at the port of embarkation , including the two signature ports. We were also disappointed that the cruise as advertised did not have any sea days, whilst in practise, two of the seven days were spent at sea due to the ships engineering issues.

The casino allowed smoking which, as it was central to the ship, at times resulted in a tendency for smoke to permeate to other public areas.

We are not sure whether the entertainment schedule had been adversely impacted by the change in itinerary, but previous cruises that we have been on have offered a variety of high class entertainment throughout the ship - this was not our experience on this cruise.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Balcony

Our cabin steward was very friendly & helpful, going out of her way to greet you whenever she was around..

Port Reviews

Argostoli (Kefalonia)

Argostoli was a pleasant port, but not a lot to see ashore. Had previously visited Kefalonia on a number of occasions so did not explore the island

Dubrovnik

Old town & walk on the walls recommended.

Corfu

Corfu old town is about a 30 minute walk from the cruise terminal & worth a couple of hours walking around & visiting the castle.
