Additional details
This was our third cruise, but our first with CMV. We chose it for the itinerary and price. Having read the the reviews we were concerned as to what we may find. However the embarkation at Bristol was well organsed and efficient. The cabin, 7044, was absoluetly spotless and perfectly adequate for our needs. Throughout the voyage it was kept beatifully by our very friendly steward.
The ship was clean comfortable and easy to get around. The food was very good in both restaurants and the Bistro and Grill. The staff in the Warldof restarurant were excellent.
The Raffles Bistro is very popular, and at peak times can be very busy. However it is not the only place to eat. We never had any problems.
Cabin Review
Spotlessly clean. Plenty of storage space. A little on the noisy side when in heavy weather.
Port Reviews
St. Petersburg
A very packed two days. Tiring but well worth it. The lunch was rushed and not very good quality. The packed lunch on the second day was atrocious.
The palaces are jaw dropping, the river cruise excellent, the churches amazing. Take lots of photos and prepare for information overload.
