Review summary
We had been on long cruises before and we had visited up to Singapore from LA. The ship stopped in many new locations, such as Steward Island and Raiatea we never visited before. We really enjoyed these places. Madagascar was the best location for our visit. We met many interesting people on the ship and on land. We shall not do a world cruise again but we we met many who had done it four or five times. One woman had done it ten times.

The pastry chef, Santino, was amazing. He prepared very good cakes, some with Italian content.
The buffet was excellent, the dining staff amazing and very attentive.

Ship tip
Take a shower in the SPA change room on deck nine instead of in the cabin
We went to see the house where Napoleon died. Very interesting. Many on the ship climbed Jacob's ladder, 699 steps, they took between eight and 16 minutes. The record is five minutes.
We took a ship tour bus of the city, not worth the price. Then we walked in town by ourselves. They told us it was dangerous but people were very nice.
