    A fantastic trip- only wish it was longer! The entire crew was great and the ship was extremely comfortable. The organized day trips/tours were spot on.

    Super clean ship with friendly staff. The cruise manager, Vanessa, was so cheerful and full of energy plus she really cared about passengers. I had a cabin on the third deck at the end of the ship, the noise from the engine room was so loud and the vibration was almost unbearable when the ship was moving. I would have rated the accommodation with five stars except for the noise and vibration. I will stay in a cabin near the front of the ship on my future trips.
