My husband and I were first time cruisers and therefore did not know what to expect. We embarked at Cape Town where there was a little delay, but everything went very smoothly. Our cases were brought to our cabin and the stewart was very helpful.
We did not share a table in the dining room but people around were very friendly. We were served by two very friendly waiters and nothing was too much trouble. Infact all the staff in the resteraunt were very helpful. The food in the Britannia resteraunt was fantastic, plenty of choice and well presented.
There was so much to do on board. The library was excellent, so much choice. The entertainment was very good. There were some acts which were not quite as good but on the whole there was something for everyone.
The cabin was very comfortable. Linen changed regularly.
