Stopping at places we wanted to see and the prices seemed okay. Embarkation went very smoothly. Cabins were clean and well looked after. Having said all that we were very disappointed with the food in both dining restaurants and buffet, very poor quality. 2nd sitting was far too late at 9.00 pm as were not finishing until around 10.30/10.45. Could have swapped but first sitting was too early at 6.30 pm. and were offered anytime dining but wanted to charge extra per person per night. Also wanted to charge to use the thermal rooms which should have been free in our minds. Staff at the excursion desks were very unhelpful. When trying to book one of the excursions we were told it had been cancelled and when we tried another there were no English speaking guides available. Staff on board were very friendly but not enough of them. Entertainment was pretty poor compared to other cruises we have been on, shows only lasting around 45 mins. All in all this Ship caters for all European's other than English, wouldn't recommend it.
Cabin was fine, very clean and was well looked after.
Took the shuttle bus into town, that was ok but expensive.
Took a taxi around the area - nice friendly taxi driver who was very knowledgeable.
Tour we wanted to book was cancelled. Just found our own way around, really liked Valetta..
