Oh my gosh, where does one begin to tell the story of the most perfect cruise, and the best ports of calls...unlike our travels on the Adventure and Voyager which I really enjoyed, this one had to top them all...mainly due to the fact that the ship was wonderful, staff excellent, food good, and ports of call burned into my memory for as long as the Lord allows...Starting in Barcelona, Spain our trip took us to France, Italy, Croatia, and Corfu....my favorite of course, was Italy..with ports like Florence and Pisa, Venice (my utmost favorite), and Rome...the arts and culture itself will draw you in, and bathe you into the past.
Royal Caribbean made this trip with all its ports a delight...one could just stay on the ship and take in the scenery, or wander into the Roman's Forum or Colosseum, imagining the gladiators and chariot races in their minds...but best of all, was the people. We literally got "lost" in Venice, which is what your suppose to do, and loved it!! Hidden Piazza's and children playing in front of 2000 year old church set the entire trip aglow...this is one cruise that I would highly recommend for anyone...
It was made affordable my using cheaptravel.com, who gave us the most awesome balcony #7676, located at the back of the ship. Wonderful location and great place to take in all the sights while drinking excellent hot coffee and dreaming of your return back.
There's alot to be said about the Mediterranean, but so much to explore when your there. Give yourself a day before and after your cruise to take in Barcelona Spain, another adventure to Tapas, La Rambus, and vast culture of great people and history. You won't be disappointed.
If you'd like to see pics, will be glad to send..just write me. www.rzrbks76@neo.rr.com
Happy travels....
