Traveled with children

Great price including onboard credit and drinks packages. Didn't need to spend any extra at all for the seven days. School and uni holidays so timing good for our families. Lots of kids onboard but no worries as they were all occupied with activities.

Embarkation was perfect. No queues and able to get on straight away before our time.

Food in dining room and buffet fantastic. Waiters awesome.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Veranda 2B

Cabin 2B

Great cabin, close to lifts. A bit noisy and smelly from public smokers deck below. Great view from bed as it's situated close to the verandah. We had it adjoining the cabins on both sides and the balcony door dividers open up so it was like a huge balcony. Made our cabins like an apartment as they all adjoined.

Port Reviews

Lifou

We walked to Jinek Bay, the church on the hill and the Cave with swimming hole.

Jinek Bay....5-10 minute walk from the wharf. Walk up road to t-intersection and turn left then right at sign. Free to visit Jinek but $15 to swim or snorkel. Beautiful sights.

Church..... 10-15 minute walk. Walk up road to t-intersection and turn left and keep going. Some steps but not too many, take a break and enjoy the view on the way. Free to visit but a donation bucket in church.

Cave......10-15 minute walk. Walk up road to t-intersection and turn RIGHT. Turn left at the sign and find the guide to take you there. $5-10 each to visit depending on the time of day. A steep slippery walk to cave, so be careful with kids or oldies. Fantastic sight inside the cave with only one light, blackness and a black spooky swimming hole to enjoy.
