Ambience, Northern Europe

Excellent food and service, entertainment shows were the best I have seen on any cruise, sea day activities could have been a few more but some innovative ideas such as the cruise passenger choir was great with a performance in the atrium on the last sea day. Also acting vignettes around the ship and plays in the theatre on sea days. This was a cruise to hopefully see the Northern lights and we did on three nights. There were excellent talks on what to expect and everything from the science to the mythology of the Northern lights.
I would have liked more live music in the atrium. Excursions were good and reasonably priced compared to some other cruise lines. Many were per-booked to full before we even boarded but they did have a wait list and added extra coaches/guides when they could. Drinks packages not worth it for light drinkers so we paid as we went. Tilbury port was basic, embarkation smooth unless you got there early which they are not set up for - warned as such in the advance information. Parking is close and porters took our cases. Cabin was fine (balcony) although the heating and aircon was temperamental, dealt with once reported to reception. Overall one the best cruises I've experienced in 15 years.

The ship really needed one or two more weeks preparation to get it ready to take paying passengers. Some areas had not been completed and were not available. There were technical problems, such as plu...
