Having just returned from our worst cruise ever on board Oriana I feel people need to know what to expect, she is an old ship and a very noisy one especially in during dinner in the restaurant but that is the least of your worries.

We did a 3 night mini cruise to Guernsey and Bruges which was no better than a P&O ferries booze cruise, now don't get me wrong, I enjoy a drink and dance into the small hours but when there is rowdy hen parties and stag do's on board all drunk and displaying distasteful behaviour you will understand that this wasn't a typical cruise although how they managed to get drunk is beyond me as it takes about 30 minutes to receive a drink from rude, dull, mute staff, service is beyond a joke.

Dinner was terrible with no presentation and we didn't attend on the final night as it wasn't worth the effort and chose to eat in Bruges some decent food, yes, decent food!! something that is not available on Oriana, however,partially warmed up left overs are aplenty and eaten by drunk revellers at midnight.
