Review summary
Excellent cruise, with a good itinerary. We had excellent weather which helped. The city trips were good and St Petersburg tour was excellent. I would do this cruise again.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Café al Bacio & Gelateria
Al Basil was good but not the gelateria. The staff on this counter did not know that a captains club member got a free “1” gelato per cruise!! It was tiny and an embarrassment!
Main Dining Room
Booking Staff Paola was excellent. Waiting staff were brilliant and helpful and friendly.
Oceanview Café and Bar
Bit manic at times but the variety was good. Is there a better way of servicing drinks. Couldn’t catch staffs eye to order drinks.
The Spa Café
Adequate, needs more choice and drinks need topping up regularly
Onboard Activities
Solarium
Food space, beds tightly packed but pleasant. Only gripe is that people “booked “ their bed very early and seldom returned at all! Other people could have had their beds
Pool
Nice pool, not very big but adequate.
Entertainment
Silhouette Theatre
This was okay nothing special to say about it
Sky Observation Lounge
Nice space and views but the daily quizzes were in here and people were still taking up seats so participants had to rest on sides to write. Not the best area for this
