Hi Swan, sailed on her in march and really enjoyed it.Did the Polynesia/Cook Islands cruise.The ship is small by todays standards but was comfortable enough with a friendly crew apart from the pursers desk.It seems on a lot of ships the pursers deck staff are a miserable lot and this was no exception.

The tender boat service was first class with minimum waiting no doubt helped by having fewer passengers than larger ships where tendering can be an ordeal.

Food and entertainment were typical cruise line fare.The library a well stocked comfortable haven and the shop had a good range of duty free much cheaper than the airport.

We never encountered rough seas so dont know how well she rides.

My only concern would be that on a longer cruise like their planned world trip I would go stir crazy in such a confined space.There isnt a great variety of public space.That said I would cruise again on her if it was for no longer than 2 to 3 weeks and I fancied the itinerary which is always the prime attraction for me.
