The 3 day aegean islands cruise aboard ROC's TRITON is a truly unique experience. I think that is a fine start for a first time cruiser and is also the best way to have a cruise during a weekend.

The public areas of TRITON are plenty in number and in locations aboard the ship.

From low to high, the main restaurant "horizon" at deck 6 "apollo deck", the main lounge "sirenes" and the nice "cafe brasil" at deck 7 "ouranus deck", the casino "monte carlo" and the cinema "theatron"at deck 8 "hera deck" and the night club "nine muses" at deck 9 "zeus deck".

At the outside there is small pool and a lot of places to have a nice tan under the glorious Greek sun. There is also a wrap around deck. I don't use to play at the casino but i think that this one is the best in ROC's fleet. The best place is the terrace outside of "cafe brasil" with a fine cocktail and the scenery of the beautiful aegean islands passing by.

The food at the main dining room and at the buffets was really beautiful and so was the service from the Greek and international stewards.

The ASU 20 cabin was very nice with more than enough closet space for a theree day cruise. The bath was also big enough and it has a full size bathtub. The level of noise was very low even though the cabin was located next to the dining room. The only negative was that the cabin furniture and also the bath equipment is dated and need modernasitation.

Another plus at this cruise is the entertainment and especially the Greek night with the participation of members of the Greek crew. The cruise staff were very helpful and always in a good mood.

The activities are the usual ones but the itinteray is something unique. Imagine that from 11:00 at friday until 06:00 at monday you have gone at Mykonos, Rhodes, Patmos and Kusadasi (turkey). The shore excursions are well organised and they were not overpriced.

Many people from Spain, USA, Canada and of course from Greece. I think that people from Spain are always very alive and they have a very good mood.
