Good cabin and food. Range of beers limited, with no draught options. Could have done with more information on Port Calls . Also they were overly priced.

We love this ship as it was never crowded, we could always find a seat whether it was in a lounge, the dining room or by the pool. The service was amazing, the shows were quite good although I used to like the elements shows more. The cabin was a good size and clean. There is no longer a nightly turndown but this didn't matter to us.

A very enjoyable cruise, the ship was old but the staff were fantastic, the food was good, drinks were okay if you got what you ordered and not the local spirits. Entertainment could have been better, especially throughout the day. And the shows were repeated which I have no problem with as I enjoyed them but they were repeated within a couple of days not following week! Speciality dining was excellent. Onboard singers good but songs very repetitive, same people, same songs just different room. Cabins were great so were cabin staff. Places we visited were good apart from two ports, not a lot there, nothing to see or do.
