The price was right, but the ship is too big for many older customers. Very noisy and far too many took drink packages and started drinking at 8 am. Entertainment was good not great.

Tour arranged by the ship to the Rock of Gibraltar was a long walk and w3fiund ourselves without seats together. The cost to get to the top was very expensive with guarantees we could get back in time for the ship bus to return. Tour guide was flippant and too young to assert herself with people.
