It's really nice of you to share your experience with us, there are many people that need this kind of information in order plan a good cruise trip and avoid bad surprises. Gladly this was not my case with Greek Island Cruises, I enjoyed each minute of that trip more…

Thank you for all this, it is very different from a luxury trip on a cargo liner from Liverpool to Hong Kong 45 years ago, and looks not to be the sort of thing I would like. Carry on having fun, and that is not a film reference! more…
