Greetings, we sailed on the Olimp last year and it was amazing if you live small ship cruising. AC can struggle a bit if it's really hot but the ship and crew were the best. Plus swimming everyday and the longer stays is the ports make this the ideal way to visit Croatia.

Get yourself a personal cruise consultant at NCL - you get a private line, private email. etc. If you cruise with NCL, RSSC or Oceania reguraly enough you will get much better perks through them. TA's cannot offer the deals that they do. For example, on my next cruise I paid for a balcony got upgraded to a two room Haven suite for free and got $750 of on-board credit and free use of the spa. All through my PCC at NCL. No TA can do that.

Wow, things have changed we were lucky enough to sail on Le Dumont-d'Urville a few months after she was launched (pre-covid). The menus are so different and very sparse, I would have been highly disappointed. My question is on our sailing, there was no mention of Tauck. Did Tauck charter the ship? Or are they partners now? PS The public bathrooms on the ship were not well thought out at all.
