Review summary

The excellent staff and food along with the amazing sites.  We were non-plussed in our 1st week compared to our previous and Oceania and Paul Gaugin Cruises, so we provided feedback.  There was an immediate change in the personal service---particularly Yoseph, Miodraga, and Victoria.   Anything we asked for was provided.  Personally, the trip was too long for us.  We will go back to the 10-18 day trips.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was good, however the location was not. We were on Deck 10 in the Aft under the Veranda Restaurant and we heard the staff overhead from 4:00am to 10:00pm---rolling carts and fast walking.

Ship tip

Book a cabin below Deck 10, so you do not hear the restaurant movement and the pool deck chairs.

If I missed 3 of 4 planned excursions I would be rather aggravated, particularly given the cost of the cruise.

Thank you for the review! And thank you for the reminder that it is important to let management know when your expectations are not being met; so glad to hear that things improved!
