Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The ship was spotless, crew worked very hard to maintain the cleanliness which was very reassuring. Harold our cabin steward took great care of us and so did Jen and MKHESELI our waiter and assistant waiter. The staff were polite, friendly and went out of their way to make sure we were well catered for. Especially enjoyed the lovely young lady who sang us through washing our hands upon entering the dining room. She was so infectious and happy it didn’t get old. Thank you

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Loved the layout of the ship and it was exceptionally clean throughout.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was very adequate for our needs, it had a small balcony and enough space for my sister and I to navigate without feeling cramped. The beds were comfortable and we had enough wardrobe and draw space to put everything away. The shower room was a decent size and met our expectations and needs. Our bedroom steward took great care of us and kept the cabin clean topped up throughout the trip.

Ship tip

Take a few extra hangers for all your dresses. The App, if you pay a small amount is a great way to keep in contact with your party or room mate without paying the daily WiFi charge.

Ports of call

La Rochelle, France

5 out of 5
Beautiful port, shame it was a Sunday as the shops were shut but enjoyed looking around and sitting in the cafe.

Bilbao, Spain

4 out of 5
Great City, we enjoyed our excursion up until we got left behind. There were 3 of us told to be back to the coach by 2pm, arrived at 1.30, saw the coach but popped into a shop to get an ice cream as we left the shop the coach was pulling away! We waited 25 mins to see if he was returning, no, luckily another group turned up and their guide helped us and let us ride back with them! Bit disappointing as we missed out on the panoramic view and the photo opportunity.

La Coruna, Spain

5 out of 5
Another beautiful port, we visited on foot. Lovely architecture and plenty of shops along lots of little streets. The city and lots of old walls and the port was beautiful maintained.

Le Havre (Paris), France Did not visit port

We stayed onboard and enjoyed the ships facilities.
