My wife and I were very pleased with the cruise we took. The ship was very clean and very well kept. The crew was constantly polishing and vacuuming. The food was always very good and we were happy that the portions were smaller. We hate it on the larger cruise ships the way food gets wasted. The shore excursions were very good and the guides were exceptional with the knowledge of the surroundings. But the thing that impressed us the most was the crew. They were all so friendly and accommodating. Gary, the tour director, was very helpful in directing us to things we should see and do. Laura, at the desk, always had a smile on her face and was very cheerful. Our cabin steward, Ivo, was very accommodating cheerful. Emeric and Martina, in the restaurant were a pleasure along with the other young lady, whose name escapes me, on the other side of the restaurant. All in all, we had a very enjoyable trip and convinced two other couples to take the cruise. They did and raved about the cruise when we got together with them.
