My family and I's first cruise, added to a 10th Anniversary, and a Transatlantic crossing on QM2 coinciding perfectly with the date made this a no-brainer. Our honeymoon was the Orient-Express, and this seemed to be another 'classic journey' which 10 years on would now be accompanied by twins of 8 years old.

This did not dis-appoint at all, and everything promised was delivered within the confines of a highly organised staff and structured and defined activities. If I have one criticism - some of the concierge-desk staff were a bit "full of it", and on occasion I felt some were not 'stretching' as far as they might in the equivalent grade of landlocked hotels.

The facilities were excellent, and the activities, available to all, are well worth the time and effort.

Cabin Q5

Personal butler services - excellent and attentive - Layout and amenities - very good.As stated previously - I believe QM2 would benefit from in-room entertainment systems of the ilk used by modern airlines such as Emirates and Cathay.
