Review summary

I enjoyed the whole vacation. Wish we could have spent more time on the ship itself! Would have preferred a longer cruise. The hotels were great and I believe either a 4 or 5 star! Did enjoy Jordan as well. Loved the JW Marriott in Cairo and at the Dead Sea!!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy. Luggage taken directly from the bus to the ship

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Every night was just a buffet. But one night my husband was not feeling well and we received dinner in our suite. That was very nice.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Not really any activities as we did not have enough time onboard but did have a 'barbecue' and ate top deck. Nice pool.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
There was a show one night. Basically a dancing type show where they had us get up and dance with the performers.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Since there were only about 20 people aboard, staff was very attentive.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Nothing like Viking. But decent, had a library.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Size was fantastic, but we paid for that! Room was clean and comfortable.

Ship tip

Unless you pay for the Royal Suite, expect a small room.
