Given some of the reviews, I was a little nervous of the cruise but once there we had a good relaxing holiday on the Tui Discovery, three of us in a deluxe balcony room, a little small perhaps but cleaned and tidied every day by very polite hard working staff.

The ship

Busy, especially the pool area, some quiet areas at the rear, putting green was fun, the deck chairs were past their best but ok, worth picking up some towel clips, night time movies ok, if you stand still for a while someone will clean you! There are photographers around every night and you can get a private session (they are very good), and the cost is not bad but be aware of the holiday spirit and an average price is still a fair few pounds. It s worth noting that the all inclusive lasts until you leave the ship, so no nasty bar bills at the end of your trip, also you can book out a towel on the last day and store your hand luggage so no need to carry around bulky items.
