Sailed from Rosyth, local for Edinburgh

Short cruise, just right for a first cruise, staff all charming and nothing was too much trouble. Food was great, ship was very clean, entertainment excellent.. Shore excursions were informative. Sadly weather not great, a bit cold and grey, but the sun appeared at times.

Strongly recommend dining in the 'grill' at least once. 6* dining experience. If I went on another cruise I would have an outside cabin, at least one with a porthole. The interior cabins can be a little disorientating (telling night from day).

I would not choose an interior cabin again, it could be disorientating (No chance to tell night from day)

Fascinating to hear about the houses and the roofs covered in grass

Noisy, but interesting

Cloud was low on the way up, but the cloud cleared just as we got to waterfall on the way down.
