Review summary

Enjoyed cruise but disappointed in missing all but 1 island. Even alternate Luganville was closed to us. Visited 2 New Zealand ports and Eden Australia instead. Islanders have little defence against the Corona Virus. It is what it is and not worth complaining. Cruise portion was both full on and relaxing. Better luck next time - P and O Adventure Bounty Cruise in Nov.

A very good cruise with a very different itinerary
Voyager was fantastic the service was fantastic We saved for a long time then got let down and never got to our islands becuase 2 workers on board had the flue. So it was a waste of money
Average to good
