The ship has some of the traditional cruise elements, such as (optional) waiter service lunch and dinner and captain’s cocktail party.
Thomson has an army of loyal British cruisers who would never choose to sail with anyone else. Service is acceptable, although you may have to wait a while for a wine waiter in the main restaurant. Food is rather samey, although of an acceptable standard for most passengers. There is also paid-for restaurant, Sirocco’s (cost approx £15 per person). The ship provides traditional entertainment, such as West End shows, Austin Powers sing-a-longs and magic shows.SuitabilityA good option for first-timers who want a good-value package-holiday cruise experience and who want to sail with fellow Brits rather than Europeans or Americans.
Also hugely popular among loyal Thomson cruise fans, and popular with families in the summer, although there are better kids’ and teenagers’ facilities on other ships.Hints & TipsGratuities are included.
Many people choose the pre-paid all-inclusive drinks package to keep on-board costs down, however there are restrictions on drinks.
There are daily Kidzone activities, for ages 3-8 and 9-12, although some are on a first-come, first-served basis.
Depending on when you book, you may have to pay to guarantee a double bed. There is also a charge for a safety deposit box.
