Good Points
Service was always good but of course they are working for tips.
Bad Points
This is a very poor way to see Europe. Most of the actual ports of call are a long distance away from the actual tourist sites.
General Comments
Every time you turn around the cruise ship is trying to take you for more money. Poor quality but expensive wine and drinks. Very expensive shore excursions. If you want to see Europe stay on shore. If you want to go to a very expensive hotel, take a cruise ship. This type of travel is for tourists who are afraid to be ashore by themselves even in a civilized part of the world such as Europe. You would never pay this much for this quality of food, drinks and rooms if you were at home, on shore.
