Conclusions

One of our better trips, despite the fall out with the Germans. (remember the cabin upgrade)
The ship although old and small by today's standards, was excellent, well kept and had very friendly staff, in particular, Gisleni, the suites concierge.
But I think the main reason for the trip being one of the best, was the people who we travelled with.
On the first part of the cruise we where with a lot of people who we knew from previous cruises, and we had a ball, every night.
The company was large, noisy and nearly all Brits.
The last part of the cruise we were on our own at first as everyone else in the company went home.
But being alone didn't last very long, in the first night we made a number of new friends, and although the company was not as large or as noisy, we still had a ball.
We were both sad to leave everyone at the end of the cruise, but on the plus side we've got a number of new cruise friends, that we will no doubt see on future cruises.Read more
