we went on this cruise as it visited some of the Scottish Islands that my wife had never visited before. The magellan only holds1250 passenengers which is to me about the right number. The cabin was spacious and spotlessly clean likewise the bathroom. The food was of a good quality and there was allways plenty of choice.All the members of staff could not do enough for you,and were very friendly into the bargain. The entertainment was also quite good. Each day there were various excursions although we did not go on many as we tend to do our own thing. I can highly recommend CMV to anybody who wants to go on a cruise and doesn't want to spend a fortune as the you get great value for your money. We have allready booked the next one.there are plenty of activities on board to keep you busy when you are at sea.
