Many of the previous reviews of this ship and cruise have been negative so we approached this cruise with a few reservations. However, we found the cruise was very good. The quality of the meals was very high and the production shows were mostly excellent

Embarkation was very smooth. The Singapore Cruise Terminal is very well organised and is staffed by people that are eager to help. We were travelling with my parents for the first leg of the cruise.

He provided excellent service.

On the evening of day one we watched the ‘Born to be Wild’ production show. It was very good and a great way to kick off the cruise. A few nights later we saw the ‘Piano Man’ production show. This was another great show. ‘Stardust’ was not as good, but passable. Read more
