trip advisor

  • Very warm welcome

    Very well organized boarding and disembarkation, with attentive staff on board. The ship is very clean, featuring two dining areas and a decent bar, all staffed by very friendly personnel. The boat’s size means there are no crowds or long lines, making vehicle boarding and disembarkation quick and easy. The atmosphere is very family-friendly and intimate, much appreciated for being away from tourist crowds and large cruise ships!
