Our last meal at 47 degrees with the best service team we could ask for. Thanks Mario, Sandeep and team!

Surprisingly Good
"In conclusion, a good value cruise made better by the service, destinations, easy flights from UK, good transfers and a manageable ship, unlike an 18 deck behemoth and too many formal evenings which I no longer crave.it was as good as any service provided on any ship we sailed on over the last 30 years...."Read More

We booked this cruise, our first with Marella, some 10 months ago. Between times we sailed on Explorer round the Canaries in February, and based on that experience we wouldn’t have booked Marella again. Poor food in every outlet, lousy wine and why the Canary ports are popular is a mystery to us. Discovery 2 from Palma in August was visiting a wide range of cities and some smaller ports over a ...

we have been on about 14 cruises with Thompson/Marella(and other cruises) so id like to think what I write is a fair opinion. Getting on/off ship, bit of a wait to get on due to proof of Covid vaccination's/antigen result etc. but ok. Balcony cabin, immaculate as usual and always cleaned and made up . Food, good quality but a noticeable lack of choice from previous ...

Having read all the previous contributors and reviews for this ship, i'm amazed at some of the remarks made. Get a grip! this is not P & O, Cunnard or even Celebrity. It's the now Marella providing cruises at good value prices. We have cruised many times previously but when we checked out the 'Canarian Flavours' itinerary along with its all inclusive plus gratuities ticket. We decided to ...

We normally cruise with Fred Olsen and have also been with P&O, so thought we would try a different cruise line. As the Discovery2 is new to Thomson and the iternary was what we were looking for. We sailed from Santa Cruz perfect for us as we live in Tenerife. The ship is large but not too large we prefer the small to mid size ships. Embarkation was painless as we arrived early before all the ...

We have travelled on Thompson, then Tui, now Marcella cruises many times.We have loved every one, even a bargain last minute on the Island escape. We booked on the Discovery 2 wondering if we would feel comfortable on a much bigger ship. Took us a few days but yes . we really did enjoy it. Having said that , the staff although good , are not a patch on the very friendly, very helpful and ...

The embarkation process was smooth and well organised with our bags labelled with our cabin number at the airport check-in. After collecting the cases at the airport we didn't see them again until later that day outside our room (although not at the same time). The process of registering for a passenger card, checks with the nurse and photographs sounded laborious when reading the briefing card ...
