This was our first cruse and certainly won't be our last. Yes the ship is old but very clean and well maintained. We were on deck 1 with a outside cabin and must say it was very comfortable and larger that I expected. The housekeeping was amazing with fresh towels every day , at night when we got back to our cabin there was aminals made from the towels and bed turned down . The food was fantastic anything you could want and the service brilliant, jo jo was our food water and Neil was our drink water and they were extremely attentive. The embarking and disembarking went very smoothly. We didn't go on any shore excursions , but got off ship and just done our own thing . Entertainment was fantastic and there were lots of activities . Would definitely go again already looking up cruses with Thomson for next year
