The story

Costa Classica Cruise - Ancona, Santorini, Mykonos, Piraeus, Athens, Corfu, Dubrovnik, Trieste

What can I say, it was a holiday different from the usual, the treatment is excellent, on board there are countless activities for young and old, the cabins very comfortable, from the porthole you see a different place every day... at night you sail and in the morning you find yourself somewhere new to discover... we did the excursions on our own.. In Athens we hired a taxi with a driver who took us to all the most important monuments, in Corfu we hired a scooter and went to find a very pretty beach.. an icy dip on a wonderful sunny day.. Mykonos and Santorini and Dubrovnik are best explored on foot. In some ports: Piraeus, Mykonos for example, the ship docks directly at the port, while in Santorini, Dubrovnik and Corfu they take you ashore with tenders...

The service on board is amazing, they tidy your room 3 times a day, you go out and they come in and put everything back in order.. it's as if they spy on your movements.. the food: (too much, I'd say, and of excellent quality) is served at all hours.. not to mention the midnight buffets.. veritable Lucullan paradises. one show a day in the Colosseo theatre: with real artists.. musicals, dancers, singers, magicians, acrobats, a real show within the show.. entertainers: very good and engaging.. activities for everyone, dance classes, daytime and evening games courses in decoupage, making fans and necklaces, beauty and make-up seminars.. in short, you never get bored!!

The only downside.. you have to go home!!!

bye

Truly a great trip
