Review summary

Pleasant Christmas and New Year cruise, more could perhaps be made of Christmas

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Well organised

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Very good, except for the fact that the Maitre'D decided that there should be no dress code in the restaurant. This spoilt the dining experience for us

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Trivia was OK but some of the cruise Directors staff lacked warmth

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The ships DJ spent most of his time during the day wrapped up in hoodies and towels on the sun deck. The shows have reduced in both quality and quantity

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

On the whole the staff were very friendly and helpful

Ship Quality
