After reading so many negative reviews about the Tired looking Millenium we did not have high expectations boarding. However embarkation was swift and we were immediatly invited to have lunch in the dining room waiting for luggage and room to be ready. Yes the ship does need upgrading however the food, staff and layout of the ship far exceeded our expectations. We did not run into 1 bad experience and we would say that the entertainment of this 14 day adventure was consistently top notch with standing ovations more that once.Our dining room wait staff Gayhnor, Bundhoo and Menhir were the best and made every night special. Dee Dee in the Rendevous-vous lounge was amazing creating special drinks based on your liquor preference. The on board music was diverse and greatly enjoyed. This was a great way to see Asia and ports of call were diverse and interesting although a bit far from the sites but we were prepared for this. The only negative was the # of people coughing onboard which could be from the pollution in the area and/ air quality system on ship. Overall a great adventure and would do it all over again.
