Date of Trip: August 28, 2005
Itinerary: Europe
Enjoyed the whole deal from service to value for money. Excursions were reasonable. I would do the trip again even under her new name. Entertainment a bit samey as we did the carousel twice before. You get what you pay for. At least I think this is the ethos.
Good all around public areas with plenty of "bar service" staff going round, not as if I was complaining. Also drink was very reasonable.
Good food. Not much here to winge about, not like us Scotsmen!
Small. Not too noisy as you were often going to bed loaded with "sailor's rum'me matey
Needed to change their act from year to year as they often had repeat clients like us to entertain.
On board we watched others entertain us just like the tv does on Saturday nights. Good for a laugh and allowed us to switch off. Could not complain.
Scandinavian people very strange. Rest take them as they come. No delusions of grandeur. Overall a very pleasant experience. We want to go cruising again in 2007.
