Chose this for the itinerary, around the northern end of Australia. Not a good trip overall. many problems with the Cabin. elevators(which did not work), air conditioning, Ship is tired and need an overhaul, One of our shore trips we were keen to go on was cancelled and we only notified the day before and $100 dollars refund each to be spent on board was an insult. we spent 5 days cruising at sea to use up time. No satisfactory answer was given and the excuse that it was engine trouble was a pathetic excuse. The public address system was a waste of time and needed somebody who could speak English clearly to use it mostly it was in comprehensible.. There was a great many people who had flu, coughs, colds which spread quickly around the ship. The mix of ages was disappointing very few people who were not of retirement and beyond. and too many walkers, motorised scooters and wheelchairs.
