Review summary

We were actually shocked at the number of non ambulatory passengers. All of the included tours were slowed down as usually there were two of these passengers per bus. We were not expecting that at all. It would be better if they had these passengers step aside as they unloaded the buses. Many of the non-ambulatory passengers had to climb stairs to get on and off the ship. That could take a long time. There was no option of getting off on a lower deck, so I actually felt badly for these passengers, who struggled to get up and down the stairs.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Arrived in London and getting from the airport to Greenwich was a long bus ride and then many lines before getting the tender to get on the ship. I suggested that next time they process the people on the long bus ride

Some service like room stewards was good. Some waiters were actually rude. First night in world Cafe we were told “this is sel service restaurant” when we asked for sparkling water.
