    Dear Mrs. HARTLEY, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the quality of the food on board and found your cabin spacious and comfortable. We are, however, truly sorry to learn that you sometimes felt left out as English-speaking guests. Please rest assured that we strive to ensure all our guests, regardless of language, feel equally included and well taken care of. Your remarks regarding the meal arrangements and the delivery of excursions have been carefully noted and will help us improve the experience for our international guests. We also appreciate your comments on the onboard entertainment. We understand that the lack of sunshine can make mornings feel longer indoors, and your suggestions for additional talks, demonstrations or quizzes are very helpful for us to consider in planning future programs. We thank you once again for your constructive review, and we do hope to welcome you back on board for an even more enjoyable experience. The CroisiEurope Team

    Dear Mr. Mc Bride, We would like to thank you for taking the time to review your cruise. Your compliments on the staff are much appreciated and we’ll make sure to pass them on. We are glad to read you enjoyed the accommodations and the food. As you noted, our Chefs are always happy to accommodate any special diet/need. We are sorry that you have suffered the rudeness of this other passenger. We do our best to make our English-speaking passengers feel welcome on board our ships. We do have agencies in the US and in the UK and are delighted to continue to develop our international clientele. On some departures, we have many English-speaking customers, we are sorry that this was not the case for your cruise. If you wish to travel with us again, which we hope you will, we invite your agency to find out for you how many English speaking passengers are already booked at the time of the reservation. Best regards, Croisieurope Customer Care Department
