Magellan - Tips

dine with at least 6 people this gets you involved with a selection of passengers

Don't waste your money!

think carefully what you require

Don't do it

Your lifejacket is in your cabin. Could be deck 4. The boats are on deck 10. The drill instruction is for you to go to your cabin from wherever you are on the ship. Entertainment. Restaurants deck 7 8 9. Can’t use lifts. There are spare lifejackets at boats for 10% of passengers. Go straight to the boat. Use a boat based life jacket. DO Not re enter the ships hull. People will die collecting lifejackets. Don’t let it be you

Dine in the restaurants

Do not arrive too early! Be wary when using the spa of the fact they'll recommend options etc which are very expensive!

Just enjoy

Magellan and Cruise and Maritime Voyages often get negative reviews. I have been with the five times and cannot fault them. Ignore negative reviews, go on Magellan and see for yourself.

i love sailing with Cruise and Maritime Voyages and I love Magellan but I've often see. Negative reviews about them. I have never had a bad experience in five cruises. My advice is don't take any notice of any reviews try it and make your mind up.

Be prepared to enjoy yourself. Everyone from the captain down will be eager to help you. Don't forget to use Sinatra's bar.

Enjoy every minute.

Don't look for faults enjopy an older ship

Go for it, you’ll be made very welcome

back deck9 allows for lovely sea views and is sheltered from the wind

Do not book the Magellan until it’s had a refurbishment

Don’t expect too much for the price paid. I think we got good value all round for the cost of the trip.
