Having been on a number of very good cruises with Ambassador we found our latest cruise disappointing. The company cannot be blamed for the very poor wet weatherand that the itiniary had to be changed a few times.
What it can be hel to account for is that the heating in the dining room and the theatres were postively cold and that is unacceptable. The TV in the cabin is very limited and there is no sports channel. Sport is a part of modern life and for 3 weeks we were cut off form the sporting world.
On the plus side the food is a good as any line we have been on and the serviceand staff on Ambassador are attentivlely top class

Excellent value for money. Immaculately clean with a happy crew providing good service. Cabins are well appointed with tea/coffee facilities but no fridge. Food is adequate quality and abundant quantity. Entertainment includes in cabin tv showing bbc news, bbc hd , britbox and several movie channels - but no guide to program content or times.
On board theatre is well appointed. Guest acts were very good but the resident team made up for lack of talent by sheer exuberance. Check in and out at beginning/end of cruise was very well organised.
I would cruise with Ambassador again

My first cruise and it didn’t disappoint at all. I was surprised by the relaxed atmosphere and the crew couldn’t do enough for us. Food and entertainment excellent and all at a fantastic price when you compare it to a fly holiday with hotels. All together a fantastic trip.

Finally, for a unique sightseeing tour, take a short ferry ride from Tilbury to Gravesend.

Tilbury Fort
Tilbury Fort is an artillery fort on the north bank of the River Thames. It was formerly known as the Thermitage Bulwark and the West Tilbury Blockhouse. From the 16th century until the Second World War, it secured London's seaward approach. The first fort was constructed here by Henry VIII, and Queen Elizabeth I famously gathered her soldiers nearby to combat the Armada threat. With its network of moats and bastioned outworks, the current fort is perhaps the greatest example of its kind in England.

Cadiz
DAY 12
08 Feb 2029
Time at Port: from 8 AM to 6 PM
Despite its impressive modernity as a major city, Cádiz is one of the oldest continually-inhabited cities in Western Europe and an urban centre dominated by well-preserved historical landmarks – most of which can be found in Casco Antiguo, the Old Town within the remnants of Cádiz’s city walls. That doesn’t mean you won’t find any modern comforts here, though; while you’re sightseeing, you can expect to enjoy flavourful food from fantastic restaurants, comfortable cafes, and more. Sitting on Spain’s southern coast, the Port of Cádiz is also a short trip from Seville – a stunning Spanish city boasting its own unique culture and unique historical landmarks.

Castillo de San Sebastián
Located on a small island at the end of La Caleta beach, this remarkable historical site was once home to a Temple of Kronos – a Titan among the Greek gods, and father of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hestia, Demeter, and Hera. The castle we see today was built circa 1706 in order to provide the northern flank of the city with defence, and the levee linking the island to the city was constructed in 1860. This castle was also the site of Spain’s second electric-powered lighthouse, which was added to the structures on this island in 1908.
Plaza de España
An impressive plaza in Parque de Maria Luisa in Seville, Plaza de España is a remarkable landmark example of Regionalism architecture – blending the Baroque Revival, Renaissance Revival, and Moorish Revival styles together. Completed in 1928, this stunning area was featured in exterior shots of the City of Theed on Naboo in Star Wars Episode II - Attack of the Clones and scenes from Lawrence of Arabia, among other film and TV productions – something that only exemplifies its incredible beauty.
Royal Alcázar of Seville
A historic royal palace in the heart of Seville, which was once an Islamic-era citadel in the 10th century before eventually being expanded upon and rebuilt throughout the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries, the Royal Alcázar of Seville is an impressive example of Mudejar-style architecture but draws on Gothic and Renaissance elements, giving it a unique character among other palaces in the region. When the royal family are visiting Seville, they still occupy the upper stories of the alcázar to this day – though, you can also explore this area when they’re not in town. A stunning palace with an impressive collection of elegant interiors, interesting artworks, and gardens, this is a fantastic place to visit when you’re in Seville.
