Over the past two weeks, my wife and I, along with friends from Rehovot and about 100 Anglos, cruised the Mediterranean, Adriatic, and Ionic Seas under the guidance of Mano Cruise Co. and AACI Travel. We were part of a larger group of Israelis that numbered roughly 1,000 people. The trip included an 11-night package with eight port stops. The port venues were fascinating, educational, and had significant Jewish content. The Mano ship, the Crown Iris, is not a mega-boat. It was put into service in 1992 and refurbished in 2018. The ship is very well maintained. The rooms and public areas are immaculate and continuously serviced. Many of the rooms are compact, but suites with a balcony are quite comfortable.
