Having never cruised before I did not know what to expect. My mum had cruised twice before on different ships, but enjoyed this one the most. Everyone was so friendly, kind and just made the whole cruising experience very enjoyable. Our cabin on the Coral Deck was lovely and spacious (mum said it was one of the biggest cabins she has been in). Half day visit to Pompeii was excellent. It was amazing to see how preserved everything had been since the volcano exploded in 79AD. I would liked to have spent more time there. Florence/Pisa was a very hectic day, but one I would not have missed. The weather was excellent...so much so that I have a lovely tan. There is plenty of food to choose from, Island Restaurant is where we mainly ate. Only one small down side was that at times the food was not as hot as we would have liked, but I really cannot complain about this ship at all.#
