Sail Date: Oct 2019

The promotion by Imagine Cruising (who were fantastic and very helpful) made this voyage sound like the "trip of a lifetime", so we took it to satisfy an important anniversary in our life. - VASCO da GAMA Cruise – London to Sydney 56 days. Oct to Dec 2019

It had not been my intention to publish this critique of the Voyage, as I had hoped to receive some credible and constructive response to various communications directed to the Australian Managing Director of CMV ( Mr.Dean Crozier). However, none of my communications were acknowledged or replied to. I guess therein lies the type of Customer Service provided by CMV.

Having taken many cruises over the past 35 years, we were really enthusiastic about this cruise on the Vasco da Gama and were excited to be onboard a ship which had "... undergone a multimillion dollar refurbishment..."…. as per published promotional material.

Cabin Review

Adequate - small but clean. See full review for details.

Port Reviews

Casablanca

Excursion to Marrackesh, Very long day, but worth revisiting after 47 years. It hadn't changed.

San Juan del Sur

Another relaxing day in a beautiful tropical environment.
