Undertook a back to back cruise during November and December 2015 visiting the Caribbean and the northern coast of South America. The ports of call were beautiful, very interesting and some were unusual such as Isle du Salut. The ship was staffed by cheerful, hard working and pleasant staff. The ship was small and friendly and the food was very good.

Just got back from a 2 week cruise around Turkey and Greece. It was brilliant value for a single cabin. The ports of call were interesting, the excursions reasonably priced (around £40 for a half day, £80-90 for a full day). Food was very good, entertainment pretty good too. The mainly Philipino crew are very friendly. Already booked my next cruise on Voyager!

I have recently returned from a 3 night taster cruise on the Voyager. I have never met such an amazing crew onboard a ship. Everyone went above and beyond to meet our needs. By the second day, they know your name, dining and drink preferences. You really felt welcome on board. The food was well prepared, enticing, delicious and constantly available. The packed lunches provided on excursions were a very nice treat. A wonderful first impression of Voyages of Discovery.

The trip around Iceland in the tail end of winter was likely to be an exciting one and it did prove to be. The weather however did not spoil an excellent cruise starting with the Faroes islands then some magnificent positioning of the ship to see the Solar Eclipse then on to Iceland. Unfortunately due to the weather (force 10 at times) it was not possible to dock at 2 of the proposed locations but the captain kept the passengers fully informed as we went. The first port was AKUREYRI which was an excellent port with plenty to see and do. Then onto REYKJAVIK the capital where, due to the earlier poor weather we missed out one port of call and extended our time in REYKJAVIK. From REYKJAVIK we went on a Northern Lights trip via the great Northern Lights centre and saw a great display for over an hour. Back to the ship. Having cruised with Voyager before we new what to expect, great service food and the most wonderful crew. With a small ship it was like joining a family who all got on? The food was great, if not too tempting at times, and great quality. The accommodation was good with friendly cabin staff. I'm just looking forward to the next opportunity to join the ship.

The regional capital of northeastern Italy's Friuli Venezia Giulia is Trieste. It’s a port city located on the limestone-dominated Karst Plateau on a narrow strip of land between the Adriatic Sea and Slovenia's border. And its scenery, which includes a mediaeval old city and a neoclassical Austrian district, is influenced by Italy, Austro-Hungary, and Slovenia. There is a wide range of attractions in Trieste, including Miramare Castle, the Unity of Italy Square and the Revoltella Museum.
Things to do in Trieste (Venice):
Miramare Castle
In Trieste, northern Italy, between Barcola and Grignano lies a castle from the 19th century called Miramare Castle. The Miramare Castle is without a doubt one of Trieste's top attractions because of its breathtaking setting that extends into the Gulf of Trieste. It was the home of the archduke Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph Habsburg-Lorraine and his wife Charlotte of Belgium, and was constructed between 1856 and 1860.

Revoltella Museum
A modern art gallery, the Revoltella Museum (or Palazzo Revoltella), was constructed between 1853 and 1858 following the plans of Berlin architect Friedrich Hitzig. The museum displays historical artefacts and furniture that belonged to the museum's founder as well as artistic and cultural treasures that, along with the interior fittings and the palace's architecture, serve as records of the Second Empire's varied taste.

Known for picturesque canals, colourful buildings, gentle gondola rides, good food, and an ample supply of history, this is one Italian destination that sits on many a bucket list. See magnificent architecture in St Mark’s Square, the fascinating Doge’s Palace, St Mark’s Basilica, and the famous Bridge of Sighs. After soaking in centuries of history, be sure to make time to simply watch the world go by with a world-class cup of coffee and a piece of tiramisu, or indeed an indulgent glass of wine and pasta dish.
Things to do in Venice:
Giudecca Island
Located in the Venetian lagoon, Giudecca Island is a small, attractive resort offering some lovely cafes, bars, and restaurants as well as pretty architecture. Over the years it has had a varied history, having been the home to some grand palaces and gardens, before becoming a centre of industry in the 20th century, particularly during World War II. One 16th century mansion has been converted into a beautiful luxury villa.
St. Mark's Square
Piazza San Marco – or St Mark’s Square – is the main square in Venice. It is one of the main attractions, and has had a vibrant role in Venetian history, having been a centre of politics, commerce, and religion over the years. Today it is one of Venice’s main attractions, being surrounded by beautiful architecture on all sides – including the magnificent Basilica di San Marco.
Bridge of Sighs
This well-known, historic piece of architecture joins Venice’s prisons to Doge’s Palace – or more accurately, the interrogation rooms in the palace. Legend says that when prisoners of the 17th century crossed the bridge into the prison, they sighed at their last view of Venice – hence the name. Today the bridge also has romantic significance, with local lore saying that lovers who kiss beneath the bridge in a gondola will have a love that lasts forever.
Doge's Palace
From the late 7th century until the late 18th, Venice had a system of doges, who acted as elected leaders of the region. Doge’s Palace – now known as Palazzo Ducale – was built in the 14th century as a residence for the doge, and for other political bodies. It was a venue used for debates, a court of law, grand events such as balls, and even had prison cells on the ground floor. The beautiful palace is located in Piazza San Marco, and was opened to visitors in 1923.
Island of Burano
Within Venice’s lagoon is the picturesque island of Burano, well known for its colourful buildings and pretty canals. First inhabited in the 6th century, Burano has long been a small fishing community, which rose in prominence with the production of lace in the 16th century – a tradition it is still known for today. Burano is a gorgeous spot to wander around, enjoy a gelato, and browse the fabulous range of intricate lace work which is available to purchase in varying forms.
