Review summary

Very enjoyable Cruise with an excellent itinerary

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very straightforward and quick. Move to allotted times seems to work

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Overall very good in the main dining room, Windjammer & Sorrentos pizza. Didn’t use the specialty restaurants

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Don’t tend to bother with these as prefer relaxation on board and visiting destinations. Seemed to be plenty going on

Entertainment

3 out of 5
3 main venues but all geared up for on stage/music on ice rink for example to provide more variety of shows. No as much entertainment as on pre COVID cruises so maybe still having to comply with protocols

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
As per usual the staff were excellent, very friendly, helpful and efficient

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Biggest and most modern ship we’ve been on but not a favourite as we prefer the smaller vessels. Cleanliness was A1 always staff cleaning/maintaining

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Far bigger than any other ship we’ve sailed on as per a more modern design. Bigger bathroom too. Real plus having tea/coffee making facilities in the stateroom

Be prepared to queue to disembark at ports even 60-90 minutes after the gangways have opened
