Cruise Vacation Showdown: Which itinerary is better?

Published 2024-03-08
During a discussion at home while looking at cruises we would like to take, a question was asked; Which of the European cruises that we took last year was our favorite and would absolutely do again if we had the opportunity.

In this video we talk about the Greek Isles cruise we took aboard Odyssey of the Seas and the Western Mediterranean cruise we took on Symphony of the Seas. We go over each of the ports and the ships and discuss what we liked and which one was our favorite.

The Greek Isles cruise featured spectacular Santorini, Amazing Mykonos, Incredible Kusadasi, and wonderful Naples. It was also home ported in one of favorite places, Rome!

Does this cruise stack up against a worthy challenger in the Western Mediterranean cruise featuring pretty Palma de Mallorca, majestic Marseille, Picturesque La Spezia, with the Eternal City Rome, and the gateway to the Amalfi Coast; Naples.

Did we like Barcelona, Spain as a home port or was Rome that much better?

What about the ships? How does Odyssey of the Seas stack up against an Oasis-Class Goliath like Oasis or Allure of the Seas.

Which one of these bucket-list type cruises would you choose?

If you’ve sailed on either of these cruises which was your favorite?

The restaurant we mentioned in Naples, Italy was Antica Trattoria da Peppino.

    Great video. We have done western mediterranian on Wonder of the seas. Great cruise. This year we are going on Celebrity Silhouette eastern mediterranian from Athens to Mykonos Santorini Kusadasi, Crete, Rhodes and an overnight in Istanbul and 3 sea days. Very excited. As you guys have been on the Reflection- do you think We will enjoy Silhouette which are sister ship?

    Great info! I’m looking to pick one for next summer. I think y’all have swayed me towards the Greek isles!

    Great video. We did the Western Meditteranean with Norwegian Prima last year in November 23 (no sea days). We are planning September 2024 RC Odessey of the seas but are concerned about 3 sea days as prone to motion sickness. Grateful for your comments regarding whether there were rough seas in your Greek Island cruise with Odessey and which month did you sail. Thanks.
  • Good video. I am going on a western 10 cruise barcelona to treste italy in 19 days. We have only done carnival and this time NCL. WE AGREE LOTS OF ports only 1 sea day. One of reason we did not choose Rc We found balance in all day and short. Also I will let you know if Ncl was a good choice.
