Small Boat Cruising 0 , Nelson, New Zealand, Nov 2025
This was our first time cruising on a smaller ship (Seabourn) and we loved the experience! The food was fantastic, the wait staff very attentive and the ship itself was very well laid out and well maintained. Georgie (as always) was extremely prompt answering any questions we had pre-cruise and she made us feel like "one of the family". We highly recommend Global Journeys!!
