We sailed on the Emerald with friends to greece and italy and croatia. The ship was lovely and the ports of call the best we have been to. Greece was beautiful people very friendly less commercialised than spain. Croatia absoultely picture postacrd beautiful an unspoilt gem and italy including Venice fabulous. The food was fabulous every nght, the shows where great, the staff amazing, very humbling. Would love to go on the Emerald agian unfortunately she has been retired, I wish we had discovered her years ago !!
Quality of Food
ate each night at the restaurant on second sitting, food was gorgeous plenty of choice , waiters great
Entertainment
shows where on the whole great maybe one or two not to our taste but they have to try to please everyone and it must be difficult, no complaints
Shore Excursions
Venice gondala trip, amazing would like to go again
Staff
Oksana from the bar staff, worked tirelessly and always had a smile.
