KEEP IN MIND
When you decide to sail on the CDF- Croisiers de France Horizon keep in mind that it is an older ship, and by that I mean pushing 30. When you realize that it's not going to be as fancy and up to date as it's newer sisters you are not disappointed. Thankfully thanks to a CruiseCritic review I knew this. Boarding in Calais for our Midnight Sun cruise to the Norwegian Fjords was lovely.
BOARDING
5092 is a mid ship stateroom that was kept clean by our room steward Sucheet and we had no issues with the layout. There was more than enough space for my friend and I to keep our clothes, shoes and toiletries and we're two women from New York.
However perhaps due to how low our deck was subject to a fairly loud engine noise when sailing. My friend is a sound sleeper and this didn't bother her, I however am not and even with ear plugs and sleeping pills I still found hitting REM a bit elusive for a while after laying down.
Cute town gateway to outdoors.
Absolutely stunning, a place that can be described as 'God's Country'. Fjords everywhere with lovely architecture.
Cute port city reminiscent of other smaller European cities. Great seafood market and lots to do.
