Overall a good experience. We had a good time. We had some concerns about the size of the ship and we still think smaller is better. Our prior experiences with the Sojourn, Pride and Quest were better.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Great experiences at the Restaurant and the Patio. Thomas Keller was great but the menu too repetitive. The Colonnade good for breakfast and less atractive for lunch and dinner
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Attended several talks, in general very interesting. Participated in trivia. My wife spent a lot of time in the art sessions and loved the experience. Used the fitness center quite often. Attended cooking demonstrations and most of the shows.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Mixed reviews. The singers of the cruise were not the best we have seen. Some of the shows were repeats from previous cruises. The Cruise Director and Assistant Cruise Director offer good shows.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Excellent service in general. Limited waiter service in the pool area. Compared with prior sailings in smaller ships, there seem to be less coordination (management problem).
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
No issues here. Similar but larger than smaller Seabourn ships
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Overall quite comfortable. Only issue sometimes was temperature control
Ship tip
Do your homework and try to select your cabin if you can rather than let Seabour do it for you
Did a Town Highlight excursion we bought on line via Trip Advisor. Nice excursion with a great guide, well timed to see the Mosque at night as well as the illuminated city. Loved the city. Visited the Louvre on our own (the ship excursions did not include it!!)
Spent one day with friends from School that live there and gave us a tour of various parts of the city. The second we took a cruise excursion to see some highlights. It complemented what we saw h first day. The city is too large an chaotic.
Much smaller than Bombay and easier to manage. Took an excursion with the ship that was mediocre and then hired a taxi on our own to complete the city tour. We should have not taken the cruise tour and hore driver for the day.
