A magical trip, in ultimate luxury, in the days when Myanmar was a highlighted overnighter, a super sampling of all the Far East and Middle East has to offer. Still a fantastic journey today without the Burma experience.
The first week of 3 week cruise, there were only 180 out of 450 passengers . We thought we had our own super yacht.
Weeks 2 and 3 , the ship filled up to around 400 . Sadly, service at meal times in the dining room slipped . Quality of food , which is normally excellent , dropped too.
Wearing masks was a bit of a pain but we accepted that as wellas all the precaustions and felt very safe from Covid.
2 ports of call to Martinique were cancelled proir to departure and substituted with 2 other destinations that we were already visiting. ( Why did they not choose some that we were not ?) St Barts and second (Castries) Dominica visit denied us entry and we were unable to dock atone other port due to the weather .
We met some lovely new friends. had excellent service from all the staff and enjoyed it all the same.
Entertainment ( singers / groups dancers) was excellent.
We are booked agin with them in June

Thoroughly enjoyed our first time with Seabourn
Excellent cruise from start to finish. Every member of staff treated me incredibly well and with compassion and humour as appropriate. I am partially disabled but I was treated with respect.
The food was superb and the head chef catered to my various intolerances and special requests with grace. Nothing was too much trouble. The excursions were all zodiac based and the gangway staff were fantastic helping me on and off the ship every day despite my laughter, screaming and even crying on one occasion. The expedition staff were phenomenal. My cabin lady was by far the best I have ever had and we are going to be life long friends. My butler was also very professional and very kind to me.
I would recommend Silverseas to anyone who can afford it!
Russian Centric cruise
More than 90 of the 140 guest were Russian speakers and less than 14 English speakers
Programs, guides, announcements lectures, all russian
Got off the ship before then end of the cruise and had to find my way back to Reykjavik
Entertainment shows simply superb better than many six star cruise lines Ship is quite old but public spaces good with excellent theatre with good sight lines Food was quite good but not top notch catering for uk tastes and with a large contingent of Indian crew curry was very popular
