Alaskan Cruise 5 , NSW, Australia, Jul 2023
Ship was very clean, good quality food. We would have preferred more entertainment, just a casual bar with a band would have been good. Everything was well organised and shore excursions were good.
Relaxing cruise to the South Pacific 4 , NSW, Australia, Apr 2023
We enjoyed our relaxing cruise to the South Pacific and particularly enjoyed Tonga. Our balcony cabin was very well set out and comfortable. The dinner in the dining room every evening was excellent and we also enjoyed the evening entertainment.
