The bathroom was stupendous. Huge double sink, good size walk-in shower with all sorts of spray. Largest bathroom I’ve had out of 6 cruises!

Tallinn, Estonia

A fabulosiand very interesting city. Well preserved walled city. Sad to hear some of the war experiences. Germans and Russians both conscripting boys from Estonia who ended up fighting against each other. We hit it on market day. Did some nice shopping

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Disembarking is never a good experience. However it was ok as these things go. Must say it was well organized and not too chaotic. Just a mob scene with no elevator availability

Loved the Getaway in 2014. Was brand new at that time.
