Variety Cruises Africa Cruise Reviews

Booked this cruise before the pandemic and thought I would never get to go but I did and it was truly amazing. The islands we visited were stunning and the captain and the crew were wonderful, we were made to feel so special and nothing was too much for the team on board. The food was incredible and my wife is Vegetarian and they exceeded her expectations in every meal. The attention to detail ...

We wanted a small intimate casual cruise around the Seychelles. Our second time with Variety cruises and it was an excellent choice. As cruising is only just restarting there were only 18 guests of mixed nationality. From the moment we stepped onboard we felt welcomed and at home. All of the crew and officers were excellent and obviously happy in their job. Nothing was too much trouble and the ...

It has been muy BEST Cruise. The crew is allways aware of tourists. The attention is excellent from waiters, Captain, and all of them The excursions were very well planned. The Cruise coordinator has a very good information of the subject. He is the BEST coordinator i have ever had in a trip. Meals are not always the same. They improve and change everyday. I went with Friends and It has been a ...

Our cruise was part of our 17-day Seychelles holiday and we enjoyed every second. You immediately felt at home on board. The entire crew was always helpful and very eager to make your stay on the ship an unforgettable moment. We always had the feeling that every member of the crew enjoys their job. Our high expectations were exceeded. The shore excursions to some small dream islands of the ...

Our cruise was round the (Portuguese) Cape Verde islands off the coast of west Africa. After four days the captain told us that we had been ordered back to port due to the impact of the corona virus outbreak. We returned to Sal where we were anchored off shore for the next five days. The captain and crew worked tirelessly to ensure that we felt completely safe and reassured during a difficult and ...

The cruise was excellent with very good staff who all looked after us all very well. We enjoyed the food prepared by the Greek Chef - lots of Greek specialities and fresh fish and prawns. We went on almost all of the optional excursions which were mainly very interesting - some involving wild-life viewing and some to cultural/historical locations. It was a small group of fewer than 40 ...

I spent months reading reviews on cruise ships visiting the Seychelles before deciding on the Pegasus for a family trip with my mother and teen daughter. The photo provided on this forum of a sleek ship recently refurbished won me over. The reviews were also generous. Alas, the M/Y Pegasus could not be called a ship. It was worn and sat low at the dock. Even my taxi driver expressed surprise ...

Great way to see the Seychelles and visit a number of islands. Especially good if you prefer hiking, wildlife, and snorkeling rather than a beach/resort vacation. Boat only had 27 guests which was great (vs 42 max). Very happy with the ship and staff--excellent service. Food was A- (very good, large variety, many choices). We had some issues with the weather--too windy to moor overnight in the ...

When I thought ,I ll visit Africa once in my life time, Variety Cruises change my mind, not only got me there to see the beautiful West Africa, with private beaches and the splendors of the side scene and meeting their beautiful people with a local flavor in which I always felt save and taken care of, that now I’m thinking will be the first of many times in Africa . The service was very ...

Very interesting islands, excellent food, nice beaches, even the snorkeling was better than expected. The staff were very friendly and we feel like at home. The group was formed by several couples from all over Europe, and this helped very much when talking to each other during the evenings. We would like to plan a few cruises more during coming years and have decided that this kind of boats ...
