Set Sail on the Enchanted Princess: A Mediterranean & Atlantic Adventure
On November 23, 2023, I set off on an unforgettable 15-day cruise aboard the Enchanted Princess. Departing from Italy and the Mediterranean, this incredible journey took me across the Atlantic Ocean, eventually reaching the sunny shores of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Enchanted Princess stands out as one of the most luxurious ships I've sailed on with Princess Cruises, offering a perfect blend of adventure, comfort, and relaxation.
The first week of my journey was packed with extensive sightseeing as we explored fascinating cities across Europe. From historical landmarks to breathtaking coastal views, there was never a dull moment. The second week was a more leisurely experience, with plenty of time to relax and enjoy the amenities aboard the ship while we made our way across the Atlantic, indulging in the ship’s world-class dining and entertainment.
Whether you’re looking to explore ancient cities or unwind on the open sea, the Enchanted Princess offers an unforgettable cruise experience.

One of the most fascinating experiences aboard the Enchanted Princess was the Galley Tour, offering a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the heart of the ship’s dining operations. It’s truly remarkable how the ship’s kitchen and dining room staff can efficiently prepare and serve meals to thousands of passengers across multiple dining venues every day.

The size of the galley was astonishing, with vast stainless steel workstations, advanced kitchen equipment, and a team of chefs working in perfect harmony. What struck me the most was the impeccable cleanliness and organization of the space, ensuring a smooth operation for every meal service. Seeing how this well-oiled machine functions was an eye-opener, and it made me appreciate the high-quality meals served aboard even more.
