Review summary

A great way to spend half term had thought that food would be better due to the best culinary cruise line tag but whilst good was same as other lines.

Very good

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Unfortunately the boat chose to do British theme cuisine even though most of us were British could do with a few more bar staff.

Good but not as much as on Royal Caribbean

Guest performers were really good, Paul Burrell was guest speaker I groaned when I saw that before we boarded, it was actually a really interesting talk.

Ship Quality

Couple of dead ends meant that finding the restaurant on the first night was interesting!! Clean and tidy.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Much bigger than the mini suite we had on Quantum of the seas, balcony was massively overlooked as d deck sticks out from the main ship.
