Caribbean Princess – Cruise Review

As this was my first ever cruise I was quite apprehensive as I waved goodbye to my parents at the Ocean Cruise Terminal in Southampton. I didn’t know anyone else on board and was excited to see who I would be sharing a cabin with. It wasn’t long before I met a couple of other agents who were on the same trip and we all headed to our rooms to see where we’d be staying for the next 5 days.

Excursion From Marseille: The Papal Palace In Avignon

We arrived at Marseille port the day before and I was very excited about the itinerary in Avignon. I must admit that I had actually already visited this little town, but I knew that this time would be very different. In fact, we were going to have a guided tour of the magnificent Papal palace and lunch in a local restaurant. In addition, the day before I attended a lecture on board focusing on the troubled historical period in which Avignon and the Vatican city were in dispute to nominate the Pope, therefore I was able to imagine exactly what the atmosphere would have been like in the Avignon of the Middle Ages.

Day Onboard Aegean Odyssey: A Glorious Morning

The idea of full day on board of Aegean Odyssey was quite exciting to me as we had a lot of early mornings, excursions and social time during the previous days. I woke up quite early and went to the gym which is located on the Columbus deck inside the Athena SPA. The gym is dislocated in a very compact space, nevertheless it had very modern gym equipment and was never too busy: it has two treadmills, a cross trainer, two bikes, weights, mattresses for exercising and balls.

Customer Review

Mr Singer

We had a fabulous trip..we were well served on board by very endearing boys who looked after our needs faultlessly. We enjoyed the shows..lovely theatre, let ourselves go in the Nightclub...fantastic, enjoyed the piano music etc etc. The food was of course, varied and of high standard.. We always found something different to enjoy. My husband particularly enjoyed the beers and the highlight for him was the beer festival on board!! Thank you to everyone..was a perfect holiday and a perfect way to celebrate my husband's retirement.
