Apollon Cruise Reviews
Apollon
Originally launched as the Empress of Canada for Canadian Pacific Steamships, this vessel became Carnival Cruise Line's very first cruise ship, Mardi Gras, in 1972. Sold to Epirotiki (now a part of Royal Olympic Cruises) in 1993, she operates under charter for mainly British passengers during a large part of the year.
