Entertainment

Having been before we still love the ship and that the marine deck lowers into the sea - although would have liked this to have been available more often. The route wasn’t the best for us and in future we would look for more interesting destinations rather than beaches. The room we chose was a bit too cramped (very good size bathroom though) and I don’t think the menus were as varied as on our last trip. The staff are all fantastic although we couldn’t understand the cruise director very well as her English had such a strong Italian accent.

The ship showcases the sails and handling by the crew, and the cruise was an amazing experience. We had a short 4 day taster holiday around Italy The food is excellent. There are a lot of stairs and high thresholds, and no lifts, so people with restricted mobility should think carefully before booking. The cabin was slightly smaller than industry practice, but acceptable. The ship is too small to have a large entertainment program. English people are in a minority, but all information is delivered in English as well as German and French. Overall it was a wonderful holiday experience

Brilliant cruise. Only main drawback was lack of information on what food was dairy free.

Quality of the ship was good, albeit we felt mealtimes were too crowded. Crew were helpful and generally very good. Cabin crew in particular did a very thorough job. If the weather had been better the deck space would most likely also be crowded, ie pressure to get a sunbed. The experience of sailing under sail was excellent.
