It was bad from the start and went down-hill form there -I was told to board the ship after 6pm by TourRadar but CroisiEurope boarding time was actually 4:30pm -I was not informed in advance that this is a French-speaking tour that will "accommodate" english. This was done with resistance though. -There was only one other couple on board from the US. There were 4 French-Canadians added to our table but they were primarily French-speakers. I took this cruise along and therefore truly was alone. While I know others spoke and understood English, they preferred not to. -The food was mediocre at best. The same food choices for breakfast every single day. Sometimes there was only one choice for lunch and dinner. The wait-staff was stretched and it was difficult to get their attention. -My carpet (yes, carpet everywhere, old carpet) was soaked on the second day after when a pipe-burst iShow more
