cactusrose Posted July 6, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 6, 2004 I got back from the Star 12 day Med last month. I haven't read the other reviews, but one thing to keep in mind is this is a port intensive cruise and can be very exhausting. :p But it is wonderful, so enjoy!

ijkh Posted July 7, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2004 I am slowly finishing my just back. We loved this trip so much we are considering doing the exact same trip next summer on the Grand Princess. We may pick the Italy/Greek Islands itinerary. Anyway lucky you to be going on this one! Bon Voyage and welcome to any questions just post here.

Blamar Posted July 7, 2004 #7 Share Posted July 7, 2004 We just got back from the star princess - Venice to Barcelona. From the point of view of advice, I would say be selective. You don't have to do everything and if you try you will exhaust yourself. Take all the stuff they say about crime and theft seriously but don't let if restrain you. I got pickpocketed in Florence but that didn't stop my appreciation of Donatello's David. Consider extending your time pre and post cruise. Some cities like Rome, Venice and Barcello deserve more than just a few hours. Do not make your airline connections too tight. We had nightmares in Barcelona and I know of people who lost their luggage for the first three days of the cruise. Happy travels, Blake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
