Itinerary: Mediterranean
The best value for money holiday I've been on, a very well organised holiday especially embarkation check at quay side so at airport straight into departures no queuing.
The lounges were very good and clean as were all public areas although you have to remember the ship is 30yrs old, you could always find a place to sit.
The food was excellent the service was first class crew could not do enough for you. Drink prices about the same as a pub and there is no service charge. House wine at dinner #8.75 a bottle. Some people paid the inclusive offer of #109 for the week that gave you all you could drink non branded makes it pays you to work out how much you drink.
Cabin space is tight shower very small we had beds in L shape and this seemed to give more room.Space for clothes was enough for a week it pays not to take more than you want.
The shows were very good there were 3 pro entertainers Berni Flint was one of them (not the man with the emu).THe ships company were good and their own shows were quite professional. They did the millionaire show name that tune, stars in their eyes.
The itinerary for the week was good. Agadir and LA palma are not usual places you would go. THe daily activities on ship were varied, but remember it is a small ship, so not as much to do as the larger ones, we only had one day at sea.
Dinner in two sittings there were two formal nights I was surprised the majority dressed up which was good the other nights informal, everybody on ship friendly. Although tips are included they still put 4 envelopes in your room.
