The staff, on the whole were good and fun to deal with

Ship Quality

Overall fantastic and clean. Bit more house training for some guests to stop spitting around public areas would be nice.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

It was what you expect for a suite but the bathroom was a step up from anything else we have seen.

Nha Trang, Vietnam

4 out of 5

Hired a taxi for a few hours - went to a few temples and scenic spots. Very crowded and the crossing a big street was, arrhh very interesting, They ride and drive anywhere on the road way and in most cases in any direction.

Used local public transport without any hassles - get an Octopus card when you arrive.
