A good cruise with some excitement thrown in. The tender transfer was very exciting as was the 4x4 tour. Istanbul was amazing
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The inclusive flight did not get in until nearly midnight, so we missed the evening entertainment. The last flight did not get there until 4am, so a late sail away!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining

The food was great all over the ship, but we used the mdr as much as possible
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Did the quizzes as much as possible. Just used the inside pool
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The Broadway show lounge was great. A new band called the 4 Tunes were very good and the Collective were entertaining as well
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Could not fault any of the staff, but there was a pool supervisor who was a little bossy!
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
I like the design of the ship being an older RC ship. Not too many faults for it's age!
Got caught by scammers using the metro. They blocked the ticket machines, so you could only buy through them. Security did nothing. Bet they were getting a backhand. The mount lost was the difference between bulk buy and individual tickets, about €2.50, so not huge.
However the city was great. Just walked past the two mosques and theTopkapi and then through a lovely shady Park. We have been here before, so didn't do an excursion.
The island and town were lovely, but it was tender port and things got very choppy and the tenders were cancelled. Luckily all passengers, including us, got back on board, and it gave a bit of adventure!
Did a 4x4 excursion here. There were some superb views and some hairy moments during it, but the driver was excellent. Didn't see much of Bodrum itself though.
