Here’s what people are saying about Road Scholar’s favorite ship:
“Some ships have a ton of flashy amenities, and you get the feeling that they want you to spend all your time onboard paying for extras. I like that Road Scholar is the opposite; the Aegean Odyssey is comfortable and there's plenty of activities to keep you busy, but the experience off the ship is just as rewarding.”
