My roommate and I are going on the Golden Feece tour in October and we were just wondering if anyone have been on that tour?

The cruise is garbage. If you want to see Turkey do the Turkish delight tour. If you want to see Greece do the Greek Island hopping tour. The boat is small, and the food is limited. Get your money back ASAP. Trust me.

I am really glad you had a good time. I also had a good time. My point was the boat itself is horrible. Did you have the boat that had the pool in the dinig room (ya great spot for a pool) or the cruise that only served three meals a day, at really ****ty times, or the hot tub that was never hot, or the nightclub that was good for the first two nights, than you realize the DJ plays the same songs in the same order every friggin night, or the magician whose main act was chopping a woman's head off? good god a nine year old could figure that trick out.
Have you ever been on other cruises? If yes and you think this cruise was satisfactory than you must have really low standards for a cruiseline. If you have not been on another cruise all you had to do was look around the ocean and realize that the other cruises in the water had lifeboats almost as big as the goldenfleece.
Once again I am glad you had agreat time, and Contiki is still an awsome travel company. They have excellent tours that go to great places, but this boat in my opinion as well as many others was not satisfactory for adults.
I am well aware that because I did not like it "EVERYONE ELSE MAY NOT LIKE IT" but maybe most people have higher standards in a cruise line than you do, most people appreciate being entrtained by good night life performers for adults not performers that would bore children, or being in large pools on the deck not in pools with a capacity of like eight, and swimming in the dining room.
Maybe thats why "EVERYONE ELSE MAY NOT LIKE IT".
