Trusted Thomson..... Having been on approx 12 cruises under the Thomson flag, starting many years ago with the good old Topaz.
Have sailed on other ships, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Cunard, but Thomsons have always come out on top for value for money, food, entertainment, but most of all the friendliness of both staff and fellow passengers.
Can't help but feel that Tui, Marella or whatever they are now branding themselves, have lost sight of their reputation and disappointed to have to say that although the ship was nice enough, the service and friendliness was nowhere near as good as other Thomson cruises.
Nice cabin,,, balcony, which although very email, we did make use of.
Cabin steward extremely good, although unlike other cruises, we did not get to see him around very much, most probably overloaded with work, like many of the other staff on board
