This was the first time we had ever done a cruise and loved it. I have read the reviews on here and i'm sorry but i've never read so many people twist on about small things. If you want perfection go and stay in a 5* plus hotel somewhere.

The whole experience for us was really good. Yes the ship isn't the most up to date and modern like the big P&0 or Royal Caribbean but then your not paying thousand of pounds to be just a number in 1000's of passengers. We found this cruise excellent, friendly and everyone we spoke to was enjoying it and the staff are there to help you with anything.

We were advised to start on a smaller thomson cruise which was more relaxed and laid back. We chose an adult only cruise and there isn't anything i can fault.. Yes the ship was a bit jiddery at times but nothing major. This ship was full, it was early august so a peak holiday time yet we never had a problem getting a sunbed at any time of the day, even after coming back late from a day in port there was always beds free. There was also a spa and a good gym. Read more
