How are Royal Olympic cruises?

Considering a Greece/Turkey cruise. Anyone with experience with Royal Olympic? Which ship? Thanks.

Hello,

Royal Olympic Cruises are a wonderful, Greek-run cruise line. Their ships are very nice, but lack a lot of the high technology of some of the other cruise lines, but their newer ships are more than acceptable. It will be a wonderful Greek cultural experience. Be sure to try some of the newer ships as some of the older ones are in need of some updates.

Best Regards,

Greetings,
We sailed on the Olympia Voyager last Dec. round trip Ft. Lauderdale - Manaus. Also sailed one of the Olympic ships to So. America about 10 years ago.I can definitely recommend Royal Olympic.
We had an inside cabin which was perfectly adequate. The public rooms are very nice, the food was very good and on both cruises we had one of the best waiters ever. I really can't think of any complaints we had.
We have cruised over 40 times, from small ACCL to the Radisson, and think for what you get on ROC, it's a terrific deal. Happy to answer and more questions.
Happy cruising.
Joanne

From what I can see, it would be the Triton, World Renaissance or Odysseus. Are you familiar with these? Thanks
