A very good cruise . Crew wisely amended the itinerary to avoid stormy seas and added a lovely extra stop in Honfleur . Like the smaller size of ship , everything very well kept and very good food .

My first ever cruise. I couldnt fault it in any way. Felt welcome and treasured. Very comfortable ship, crew fantastic, entertainment top notch, food divine. To go to bed, be lulled by the waves and wake up somewhere new was magical. For us it is not so much the destinations but the journey, however that may change the more cruises we do.

Beautiful ship, the decor has been updated well. Crew, Stewards waiting on staff were excellent, always acknowledging you with a big smile and greeting in passing. Excellent port choice. Entertainment was a bit hit and miss having some excellent acts whilst others were somewhat lacking. By far the best entertainment was the crew show whom received a standing ovation. Cabin bedding was a bit worn out which was a disappointment at not up to standard. Overall a memorable cruise and would book with fred olden again
