Magnificent Voyage! 0 , WA, Australia, Aug 2025
We loved our journey with Virgin Voyages to the UK and Europe. The ship itself is magnificent with facilities that are second to none, including our cabin, the entertainment, food options and ports of call. The crew are all just so lovely and when we had a bit of a problem with one of our off shore tours, Virgin Voyages refunded the tour in full. read more They just cannot do enough to please you, and please us they did. The ports of call were all amazing and well chosen and help with tours was wonderful. Give Virgin Voyages a go, you won’t regret it. I would like to add that Hannah Campbell at Global Journeys has looked after us carefully, helpfully and always with accessibility. She has arranged several trips for us now and we wouldn’t want to deal with anyone else. Her attention to detail, responsiveness and courtesy have always been of great value to us, and this was once again exemplified on our most recent trip.
