Chose this cruise because of ports visited, seas were rough and we found out they were always rough on this cruise. We were not advised of this and we spent several days in our cabin sea sick. Not fun,big disappointment. We could not visit several ports because of rough seas. The Whisper is an older ship and frankly some areas of the ship our out dated and in need of repair. Example deck around swimming pool was under repair the whole 17 days we were aboard, A big plus was the ships staff who always were of great service. We stayed an extra day in London and had a great time at St. James. We were picked up on time and delivered to ship in a timely fashion. We did not have anything to eat until our butler asked us about lunch. No one told us about lunch being available. Thankfully our butler brought us some cold stuff,which carried us till dinner time. We stayed over in Montreal at St. James. Besides getting our room at 3 PM the hotel was good.
