Sail Date: May 2011

We were first time cruisers and aiming to celebrate my 60th Birthday and being together with my Partner for 25 years. We chose a Black Sea Cruise as we were looking to visit some new destinations. We wanted to do this in some style.

We cruised on the Silver Wind. Expectations were high and we were not disappointed.

We are a gay couple and I think we were the only gay couple on board which suited us very well. The travellers, as well as the crew, were from a wide range of nationalities. The ship takes around 270 passengers. Of these around 90 were from the US, 50 from the UK and 30 from Australia so a high proportion of English speaking guests. Part of the enjoyment was in meeting a variety of well travelled and cultured people.

Cabin Review

Cabin 526, Midships Veranda. Reasonable suite: twin beds with a sofa and two armchairs. Plasma TV. Ipod docking station.Walk in wardrobe with plenty of hanging space. Good drawer space. Plenty of storage. Smallish bathroom. Single basin, 3/4 size bath with shower over. Choice of Ferragamo or Bulgari toiletries.Comfortable if not large cabin.
