43I booked a last minute 5 night cruise on Marco Polo as it had been advertised at a very good price. I have sailed on her a number of times and have a soft spot for this elegant old cruise ship.

Embarkation at Tilbury was very quick, I had allowed for travel holdups that did not occur, and arrived at the port almost two hours early, and checked in and was aboard in less than five minutes.

I had a comfortable outside cabin on deck 7 with tea and coffee making facilities, which I was very happy with. It was kept spotlessly clean by my steward, who was a dab hand at providing me with a range of daily towel sculptured animals.

Cabin Review

Cabin Superior Outside Twin

I was allocated a very comfortable cabin on deck 7 with two large windows. Three good sized wardrobes, tea and coffee making facilities.

Port Reviews

Rouen

Made use of the free shuttle bus into the city. Only had about two hours here, there is enough to justify a full day in this delightful city.

Honfleur

A free bus transfer was provided, Honfleur is a charming little town with quaint narrow streets of half timbered houses, and well worth a visit.

Rotterdam

An easy 15 minute walk into the city centre from the cruise terminal. The walk takes you over an impressive bridge. Frequent trams also stop near the cruise terminal.
