Review summary

This was a budget style Ship with excellent stops.The price was good but as I always say you only get what you pay for so I have little further to say.They need to increase heat on Ship as there were so many people sick with colds on this Ship.I had to go to bed with my Dressing Gown on and still cold and the weather was not cold outside just like living in an ice box.

Embarkation

1 out of 5

This was a total disgrace no organisation and no direction Passengers bringing their luggage in line up to board the Ship.Some passengers waited over 2 hours with no seats for older people and outrage getting to people.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

ffee The Buffet for breakfast served cold food and many passengers had to take their breakfast to their rooms as there was no room to sit.After 4 days and many complaints tables were cleared allowing passengers to sit at clean table.No service like on Princess where you were offered coffee or tea.

Onboard Activities

Ship tip

Do not eat in Pub as we were served uncooked raw fish at lunch for the fish and chip lunch and many people complained about the archichoke dip.I might mention it was the couple we were travelling with that was served raw fish after I recommended we eat there as we travelled on Star last year and that was one of favourite lunch places to eat.
