I chose this for the country (Norway) plus the adventurous aspect of the excursions. I read that this year is the ship’s last year of sailing and it was the last time to experience a different type of cruise. The ship is stylish and whilst old still offers a comfortable, low key holiday.
The staff were second to none, especially as they were dealing with the ever-changing unprecedented situation with C-19 virus. We really were in uncharted waters!!! They were calm, unflustered and dealt with the whole spectrum of reactions from passengers. They helped with arranging flights taxis etc when many of us chose to cut our cruise short )in my case from 11to 3).
They changed tack from buffet style food service to silver service with aplomb and good humour. They were outstanding and I am sure they were equally as worried as we passengers were. The level of service from everyone was amazing
