Enjoyed the cruise very much!
Excellent value for money cruise. Staff onboard were very good. Cabins kept clean by friendly staff. Food onboard was consistently good and well cooked. This ship caters for the British market and this is reflected in the menus on offer. Kettle in cabin always a plus as not usually available on American ships. Breakfast Room Service free of charge was a plus. Ship is traditional and is coming up for a refit next year.
An enjoyable week. A lovely itinerary and good to get some winter sunshine. Very well organised from the charter flight, transfers and cruise itself. A well designed ship with good use of space. Loved that there was different styles of music throughout the ship to suit any musical taste.
