  1. Guess it's all subjective but I have LOVED the beef offerings on our Regal, Grand Princess and Sky Princess cruises. I had read so many complaints about the beef prior to our Sky cruise from Southampton that I was expecting the worst. Didn't happen.
  2. @Charmslittleworld. Since you will have had a very long overseas flight you might opt to relax in Piraeus rather than rushing about seeing Athens. Only you know what your energy level is.
  3. Thanks. We’ve been to Sicily on 2 land vacations; LOVED Taormina. No desire to fight the hordes on a day trip. 😂
  4. As you have so little time to actually "see" Athens, I would suggest heading straight to Piraeus for the overnight. We are taking the X96 bus directly for the airport to Piraeus. We have booked Lilia Hotel which is very reasonably priced, close to restaurants and has very good reviews.
  5. No matter the "excuse" very poor handling of the situation.
  6. @mevs904Interested in hearing what you did independently in Kotor and Messina.
  7. @BooboochaseCome on over and join our Roll Call!
  8. Our Norwegian Fjords/Iceland cruise out of Southampton had quite a few "British" menu items and our Grand Princess to Alaska had a nice selection of "Alaskan" items. As noted above, check out the buffet for specialty evenings. Someone posted Patters from their recent Mediterranean cruise and there was "Greek", "Mediterranean", "Italian".
  9. Thanks to Fouremco I read that I had to update our Nexus information when we got our new passports. I was totally unaware of this requirement. Followed his instructions - no problem! 🥰
  10. Our Caribbean Princess cruise isn't until JUNE 2024 and the only options given was Palm. I'll check periodically and make a change if possible. Since our cruise is in the North Atlantic I'd prefer a mid-ship dining experience.
  11. We enjoyed the spiced cheddar in the buffet; very flavourful.
  12. We have booked John Lopez Rock tour for 8 on our Enchanted Princess roll call for September 11th. John Bull always gives good advice and seems to think this tour, although expensive, gives value. I have read some comments that make me leery of regular taxi drivers so we shall see. 🤞🏻
  13. @kadeyHave you joined your cruise Roll Call? Ours has lots of small group tours for the various ports so you might get lucky.
  14. We loved Capri where we did a 4 day land vacation. So glad we didn’t have to deal with the cruise ships!
  15. You won’t see the MDR menus until the actual day and, even then, they aren’t always correct.
  16. We visited Marseille on a land vacation and found it the dirtiest place we have ever been. We're supposed to stop there on our September cruise and aren't planning on getting off the ship.
  17. @fpsphilIs your last photo Kotor? Looks gorgeous but there is NO WAY my husband and I would be capable of that climb so thanks for posting what we won't be seeing. 😂
  18. If it's difficult to reach them to ask a question, how readily available would they be in an emergency?
  19. Definitely NOT our experience! Everything was cooked to perfection. Yes, MDR with the exception of Alfredo’s. A few of the desserts were from Horizon. We were looking for the crepe station in the dinner buffet and, although we never found it, we discovered the delicious chocolate covered strawberries. Not that we needed EXTRA desserts!
  20. If you’re referring to the Premium desserts, we didn’t have a package. Not ONE of those appealed to us.
  21. Thought I’d post pictures of some of the delicious food we enjoyed on our Sky Princess Norway/Iceland cruise in May.
