Additional details

Sail Date: Oct 2014

Things got off to bad start when the van that was supposed to pick us up at the airport did not appear for hours...and only came after urgent calls to the ship. So we lost half a day of exploring the embarkation town. (The hotel manager on the ship did give us a generous drink package in compensation, but we were frazzled even so.) There were similar delays and disorganization on the transfer to the departing airport.

As for the cruise itself:

Pros: The ship itself was comfortable. The crew relatively friendly. The food was always good and on three occasions extraordinary. I don't think I ever have had such great steak, and I eat a lot of steak.

Cabin Review

The rooms on these long ships are quite comfortable--first class beds, ample bathroom, reasonable storage and shelf space. And the cabin crew kept it spotlessly clean.
