I loved this Cruise Adventure,it was a great History Lesson,over 13 nights we had just one full day at sea,as most reviews complain about food and petty things I could not fault the Crew attitude and service,but then I do not expect a waiter to remember how much ice I need.I found the Service at the Front Office good.Cabin was great good size and Attendant Marianna excellent.
As we would get back on board each day at various times we ate at MyTime Dining and Windjammer,food was good at both venues,if you want 5 Star go on a smaller Ship at three times the price.T he only complaint I would have is with Breakfast,the bacon is too hard(brittle),the Egg Station need to do a batch of fried eggs and put on Main Buffet every half hour,would save time waiting also need a crew member to man a Muffin/Toast Station as it was pre cooked and hard.I will write a separate Review for SPB Tours in ST. Petersburg,their 3 day tour was excellent.
Helsinki......I liked very much,friendly people good shopping,make sure you visit Stockmanns and great seafood at the Market by the Seafront.
Very Clean,large soft side bag fitted under bed,lots of hanging space and drawers,enough mirrors,bathroom clean just big enough,space on walls could be utilised by having hooks to hang shoulder bag,jacket etc. did not have time to watch anything on TV,Cabin in great position just short walk down one floor to gangway.Great Cabin Attendant Marianna.
