Very good cruise for price paid especially as everything was included in price (flights, transfers, food and drinks). We upgraded to the premium all inclusive which we did use but could probably have got away with the standard (depends if you are picky on the brand of spirit you like or whether you prefer premium coffees). Food quality good and perfectly acceptable although maybe not quite as high quality as some other cruise lines we have experienced previously, although having a wider choice of venues to eat was better. I will definitely be looking into further cruises with Marella.

We have been on the Explorer 2 on two holidays and thoroughly enjoyed both. This was our first cruise on Discovery 2 and were pleasantly surprised by the interior of the ship. Everything was so pristine on every deck, our cabin was ideal for us and well maintained. Restaurant 47 was up to 5 star rating, with menus making it difficult to choose from and service was excellent. The evening shows in the theatre were of very high standard and very enjoyable every night. The theatre itself was stunning, a lot of time and effort had obviously gone into it's construction, no matter where you sat you always had a clear view of the stage.

A welcoming destination where the new and the old exist harmoniously to create a truly unique adventure, there’s something for everyone to enjoy in Alanya.
Things to do in Alanya:
Alanya Castle & the Red Tower
Built throughout the early 13th century, with completion recorded as 1226, Alanya Castle was constructed over Byzantine and Roman fortifications on an elevated rocky peninsula in the heart of Alanya. Once an active defensive fortification, Alanya castle was transformed into a residential area throughout the 19th century following the Ottoman Empire’s pacification of the region. Now, you can find an open-air museum within. Similarly, the Red Tower – which was also constructed by 1226 and designed to protect the shipyard here – now hosts the Museum of Alanya.
