Cycler48 Posted July 26, 2006 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Hello. My wife and I will be sailing on the Brilliance of the Seas, out of Barcelona, on June 26, 2007. I'm interested in hearing from anybody else on the same cruise...or from anybody who has already done this itinerary (Nice, Florence, Naples, Venice, Croatia, Corvu, Rome, etc.). I'll leave it wide open to whatever you want to talk about. This is our first trip to Europe after seven Caribbean cruises...all on RCI. Hope to hear from you. Ciao. (Sorry. Just practicing.)

Host Karen Posted July 26, 2006 #2 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Welcome to CruiseCritic! You've come to the right place to get answers to your cruise questions. May I suggest you visit the Europe Port of Call board where you will find a ton of information on those individual ports of call as well as ideas for pre- or post-cruise hotels, private tours, what not to miss, etc? Here's the link: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=19 We sailed Brilliance to the Med in June 2005 and loved both the ship (it was our third time sailing her) and the itinerary (we did the Greek Isles itinerary). Doing all the research was half the fun! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwantsun Posted July 27, 2006 #3 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Cycler48 you should check the following thread http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=364046 . This gentleman had a daily report of his June 2006 cruise and ports of call. You may also want to "lurk" ;) on the different roll calls for the same sailings for this year (Aug 3 & Sept 20). Much of the planning is already done so you may find useful information there also. Enjoy the planning ! Ciao (also practicing since I will be on the Brilliance Sept 20th) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cycler48 Posted July 27, 2006 Author #4 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Thank you very much for the tip. I'll definitely check it out. Go Habs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandis Posted July 27, 2006 #5 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Cycler I posted a roll call for the June 26 sailing of Brilliance. Have done a med cruise on Brilliance before, 3 years ago, but with a slightly different itinerary. (Mykonos, Santorini, Athens and originally Kusadasi (but was replaced by Malta) instead of Dubrovnik Corfu and Venice). Brilliance is a beautiful ship and I'm looking forward to that trip. Also while I have been to France and Italy many times, I always enjoy visiting those cities. Last time, we did tour most cities on our own, this time we are looking into private tours. We found the official tours to be way too expensive and you don't get to see that much with a big group. Have you signed up for the Meet & Mingle party yet?

Cycler48 Posted July 27, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Hi Marc, I will check out the roll call next. And, no, we haven't signed up for Meet and Mingle. Do you recommend it? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandis Posted July 27, 2006 #7 Share Posted July 27, 2006 It's a nice possibility to meet people you might have talked with here before. So if you are interested in this, I would recommend for you to sign up. RCCL will host the party when a cerain number of people sign up.
