    Hotel and the breakfasts were great, the cruise was fantastic. Though I’m not normally an early riser, the tours offered in the mornings were so worth the effort. Our tour director, Nico, was professional, cheerful, and expert in his handling of the itinerary. No one could have done a better job. The cruise ship delivered us to a variety of fascinating ports; the crew were friendly and helpful. The food was thoughtfully prepared and always fresh. This was more successful than I’d thought it could be!
