We have just returned from an absolutely wonderful cruise on Discovery 2, and we cannot speak highly enough about the entire experience. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations and made for a truly memorable holiday.
A special mention must go to our cabin team - Hendar, Francisco and Johnson. They were absolutely fabulous throughout the cruise. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they kept our cabin spotless and beautifully organised every single day. Their friendly smiles and thoughtful touches really made us feel welcome and well looked after. It’s the small personal details that make such a difference, and they certainly delivered.
The restaurant team - Mark, Sharlaine and Kyawt were equally amazing. The service was consistently attentive, warm and professional. They quickly got to know our preferences and always made dining a relaxed and enjoyable experience. It felt personal rather than routine, which we truly appreciated.
The entertainment on board was fantastic. There was a great variety of shows and activities to suit all tastes, and the performers were extremely talented. Each evening felt special, and we found ourselves genuinely looking forward to what was coming next.
The food throughout the cruise was excellent, with a wide and varied choice available every day. Whether at breakfast, lunch or dinner, there was always something delicious to try. The quality was consistently high, and everything was beautifully presented. We particularly appreciated the range of options catering to different tastes, ensuring there was something for everyone.
Overall, we had an incredible 2 weeks on Discovery 2. The combination of outstanding staff, superb food, great entertainment and a lovely atmosphere made this a holiday to remember. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment and would wholeheartedly recommend this cruise to anyone considering it. We would not hesitate to sail again!

Very convenient TUI package from travel point of view
Cruse was very good with well pointed room 8531 ( 29th Jan to 5th Feb )
Food was good and there was never too much waiting to get into any place for food or drink
One complaint though is about the WiFi package . On day two it got disconnected so reception asked us to log on again just as when you bought it first time , it worked .
Again on day 5 same thing happened so I did the same , however this time I was again charged £99 .
When I asked about that to reception they said you had already sued up your allowance but I was never notified about my expired allowance on the app falsely luring me into buying it again. Had I know I would not have done so as only 12 hrs of cruse was left . So feel I was a bit dupped by their app, leaving a sour taste right at the end of the cruise
* Please note - Itineraries calling into Venice and Dubrovnik will incur a small tourist tax per person, this will be added to your onboard account during the cruise.
