Review summary

Unfortunately the ports of call where not the greatest, booked tours tended to be on the expensive side, getting on and off tenders appeared to be horrific at times, not a lot happening on board for elderly people, particularly on port visits. Given the ports of call and entertainment on board, I found 15 days was far too long, 12 days would be plenty for me

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Tragic, as we are Platinum members we supposedly had priority boarding, no such thing, at the port there was obviously insufficient numbers of staff. however not Princess cruises fault

Opinion purely based on the lack of staff at check and boarding, compared to Singapore it was a joke
