This was our first cruise and it succeeded all our expectations. I celebrated my 30th birthday on this cruise and I was so chaffed to have received a birthday card on the morning of my birthday in the cabin after breakfast. I was also spoilt at dinner with complimentary cake and a birthday song sung in different languages by the staff. The food was delicious with so many different dining options and the entertainment was high energy and fantastic. The staff were so diligent and hardworking. I am still amazed about how well the staff work treating everyone with so much of respect and kindness. There is something for all age categories on-board and a must for everyone to experience at least once in their lifetime. The Portuguese island was majestic and peaceful! Embarkation at the Durban Harbour was fair and Dismemberment was so quick without any hassles. I would definitely do the cruise more often as it is refreshing and rejuvenating.
