Sail Date: Mar 2016

Our 2nd cruise with CMV, the 1st was on the Marco Polo. This ship is bigger but not too big. It seems as dated as the MP but is still comfortable enough. This cruise was to Iceland (for overnight), taking in Amsterdam, Faroes Islands, and Kirkwall in Orkney.

Amsterdam, I am convinced, is put on the schedule as a refuelling and re-provisioning stop. Must be cheaper to refuel in Holland than UK, why else would the stop be for only half a day?

(Tip: many excursions can be booked cheaper with local tour operators, either online or when getting off the ship - Canal cruise for example).

Cabin Review

Cabin Superior outside twin

Good, clean, very comfortable bed (Queen size).

Could do with better positioned electric sockets, but otherwise nothing to fault.
