Clean and well maintained, very impressive

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Comfortable beds and very spacious room. My little one did fall from the pull down bed but we just switched around so he slept at a lower level. Excellent choice of movies in our room too

Ship tip

Try and arrive early for your evening meals as it can be a long wait for a table at peak times

Ports of call

Southampton (London), England

5 out of 5
Very quick process to get on the ship , friendly staff .

Vigo, Spain

1 out of 5
This port was disappointing to be fair. Not a lot to do or see and we found ourselves back onboard 3 hours later. It has a lot of history but won’t rush back

Lisbon, Portugal

5 out of 5
Beautiful stunning city, so much to see and do and we will definitely return. Easy to navigate, beautiful architecture. We also visited Porto which was our favourite, two stunning cities x

Cherbourg Did not visit port

We couldn’t get into Cherbourg due to the weather. We got caught in a storm force 12 hurricane which was scary and exciting too. Maybe next time

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very smooth, straight off with no problems at all.

Lucky you with the storm. Been on loads of cruises and no force 12 yet. 10 at most. Just back from tenerife etc. Never saw a single wave going down and back - BORING SEA.
