Tremendous all round service.

Great service all round, from booking to the emails (several) I sent with queries about the trip, nothing was too much trouble and all sorted by return. Thank you all.

I called and spoke to Mary Isaac. She was very helpful and answered all my questions. She has been on the ship and could tell me all about it. It's my first cruise so there were a lot of questions. Mary was extremely helpful.
