    Excellent value cruise on M/S Kira Older boat , some carpets need replacing but everything else was excellent. Cabin was spacious and clean. Food was excellent. Crew are very friendly. Only complaint is that the price of a bottle of Beer was expensive at $7 I would recommend to anyone on a budget but don't expect it to be 5 star,it isn't but it definitely is VALUE for money.
