72 days away. 23 ports, with two missed out because of bad weather - Port of Spain, Trinidad, and Punta del Este, Uruguay. 23,500 miles travelled. Fantastic experience, although for some guests the first week was not a good one because of an unseasonably early storm after departing Madeira. Saga Pearl II is smallish so it got tossed around a bit
The quality of staff (Filipino) is excellent, and lots of long service crew which says a lot about Saga employment practices. Staff and management aboard worked hard to ensure that the cruise was a memorable experience for guests - for all the right reasons - and they succeeded.
The entertainment was generally of good quality and high standard, something for everyone, really.
Comfortable. As the Pearl is a small ship, the cabins are smaller than what you would find on the cruise-monsters. Nevertheless, perfectly adequate for our needs, even on a 10 week cruise.
