Comfortable ship with helpful and friendly crew. Talks on the cruise were very good and tailored to the trip. Plenty of tour options which made the most of the ports and local areas. Food in the restaurants was good, although the buffet area, although ok, could be better. Overall a well run ship.

Only my second time cruising so little to compare with, however the ship was well run clean, with helpful staff and good food. My only criticism would be the entertainment wasn’t that good, on board activities isn’t my interest but there was plenty to do if it was.
