We enjoy smaller ships and this was the smallest we have cruised on other than riverboats. The ship is well appointed and very easy to get around. It is a lovely ship!

We chose this cruise because the destination was attractive and we had enjoyed a similar cruise along the Croatian coast on Le Lyrial in 2017.

The destination venues were well chosen and the opportunity to see Paxos [otherwise fairly inaccessible ] particularly ...
