Our holiday was essentially ruined because our aft cabin suffered from loud knocking and bad vibrations. We were eventually placed in an inferior cabin after four nights three of which were spent in a balcony cabin until an inferior queens grill suite became available. We did not get the cabin we chose and paid for and the staff clearly knew there were issues with the cabin noise as the butler was nowhere to be seen most of the time and the concierge was apologetic.

3rd time on Victoria, I loved it again. First time Ive been inside and to be honest, it was abdolutdly fine. Infact I spent more time around the ship, joining activites rather than sit on ths balcony. 2 gala nights during our 7 day cruise but no theme, shame. New Years Eve in Amsterdam was great. The gala dinner, entertainmdnt on board and the spectacular firework display we watched from deck 10 made the night the best New Year in a long time.

Rich with culture and cuisine, overflowing with intriguing and controversial history, and boasting an abundance of jaw-dropping sights, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to deciding what to do with your day in Cape Town. There’s simply so much on offer, from the brightly-coloured buildings in Bo-Kaap and the staggering slopes of Table Mountain to the vibrant Camps Bay Beach area and beyond; however you want to spend your time, everyone will find something to enjoy here.
Things to do in Cape Town - Overnight onboard:
Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden
Situated at the foot of Table Mountain, the incredible Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is a must-visit whilst in Cape Town. Claimed to be one of the world’s most scenic botanical gardens, it places great importance on preserving South Africa's indigenous plants. Within the gardens, you’ll find a conservatory, amongst other extraordinary sights.
Cape of Good Hope
Jutting out dramatically into the South Atlantic Ocean, the Cape of Good Hope is a breathtakingly beautiful natural landmark boasting incredible coastline views, sensational wildlife spotting opportunities, and an interesting history worth taking the time to learn more about – and, it’s a peninsula that’s commonly mistaken for being the southernmost point in Africa, but that’s actually Cape Agulhas, which is about 150 km eastwards. When it was first discovered by Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias in 1488, this rocky headland was known as the Cape of Storms, but John II of Portugal renamed it the Cape of Good Hope in an effort to reflect the incredible optimism borne out of having an open sea route to India and the East. When you’re here, you’ll have the chance to see everything from ostrich and chacma baboons to African penguins and more; so, it’s definitely worth bringing a pair of binoculars when visiting.
Boulders Penguin Colony
Getting its name from the granite boulders that surround it, Boulders Beach is located on the Cape Peninsula in South Africa. Not only is this beach incredibly scenic, but it’s also a popular place to visit because of the thriving colony of African penguins that call it home.
