Ancient Aegean to The Modern Med from Athens with Stay, 22 October 2024 (12 nights)

Staff Review - My balcony cabin was super spacious, clean, well-equipped and had a great view. The Test Kitchen was my top pick of dining venues, with great service, creative dishes, and a really pleasant environment, and Razzle Dazzle for tasty breakfasts with a great choice of options in a jazzy space. During the day I was happy chilling around on different decks and bars as there are plenty of spaces and choices. In terms of entertainment I really enjoyed the comedy and dance performances with great costumes, singing and audience participation. To sum up I think Virgin Voyages are fantastic when it comes to the very modern technology on the ship, the great food choices, especially for healthy eaters, the wonderful crew and well arranged on-shore visits.

Staff Review - It was a lovely balcony cabin with a nice bed, TV and and iPad remote control with which I could control the TV, lights, curtains and also order room service. Razzle Dazzle was my favourite dining venue, as it had plenty of vegetarian options, and the Pizza Place where you can go almost anytime of the day and order a customised pizza of your choice of toppings. Amazing both of these and other dining options are included in the standard price! I also loved the gym with the latest equipment and running track, and relaxing afterwards in the wonderful Redemption Spa. In terms of nightlife The Manor nightclub has live DJs and loads of entertainment at the Red Room theatre. Kash, Sales

Service was excellent, staff was excellent, food when we could get into the restaurant was excellent, the app was absolutely rubbish it kept throwing us out and we couldn’t book anything I was very disappointed and I would not recommend it to anybody else until it has been sorted out properly.

What an amazing ship to have gone on for our first ever cruise! The facilities onboard were brilliant, we had a cabin with a balcony which had its own hammock to relax in. All of the restaurants that we are at were incredible, the food was first class and we didn’t have a single bad meal! The staff throughout the shop were so attentive, polite and hard working, they were always happy to help with any issue or question. The ship has a lot of fitness classes that are included for you to book, the only downside I could see was that if you didn’t really want to do fitness activities then there wasn’t a great deal of other activities to do. The show we saw was very good and entertaining with some amazing performances, the scarlet night was also good fun. We had no excursions due to this just being an all at sea cruise, with excursions in place then this may solve the small issue of a lack of activities that are fitness based. I would definitely recommend this cruise to other but try to book and activities or restaurants as soon as you can to avoid disappointment. The virgin voyages app was very temperamental and caused a lot of issues for others as was continually crashing, the app is an integral part of the cruise so hopefully this will be improved soon!
