Review summary

loved it and loved being on my own, as that was the first time i have travelled solo, esp abroad and on a cruise. will be back onboard 10/04/18 :) :)

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very efficient airport in Dubrovnik. Didnt have to worry about luggage either way as it was bonded, so was just a matter of landing, going through passport control, security, and straight out :) Gave me more time to explore Dubrovnik before sailing, and luggage was outside cabin door when I returned.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Excellent restaurants and staff. You were always looked after and I love Thomson Spirit, as its my little baby and I am familiar with staff etc and they were all happy to see me back, and was able to have catch ups, pics etc :)

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Very good entertainment and shows :) Enjoyed the back stage tour for the showteam :)

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Good comedian, excellent quizzes and game shows. Even won bingo 3 times which cleared my onboard account. Was given a thomson cruises cap by assistant cruise director to. Some even thought i was staff cos i had bought a lanyard with thomson cruises on :)

Children's Programs

Adults only cruise :)

Cabin / Stateroom

very clean inside :) very comfortable and even though it was right above the engine room, didnt stop me sleeping :)

Ship tip

Would love to keep cruising for years to come, and am so glad thomson have it back for another year, would love it to carry on for longer, as lots of people prefer it as its homely and good value for money, entertainment etc and its even won awards for best cruise ship, so why get rid of it :) keep it sailing :)
