We had a wonderful time on the cruise. The ship is lovely and food and drinks were delicious and plentiful. On board entertainment was of a high standard as were the shore excursions. But the best part was the crew. They are without exception warm and caring, nothing was too much trouble for them. On my birthday our Butler arranged a cake and champagne as a surprise and decorated the cabin with cute animals made from towels and the bed was strewn with roses and rose petals with a bithday greeting spelt out in cut up palm leaves.Show more
