By Howard, Devizes on 22nd May 2012 Fantastic pre cruise
service. Junior Suite.

to handle suite guests.
Booked this cruise purely
for timing and...

By Foster, Chester Le Street on 21st May 2012 Living about 25 minutes
from the Port of Tyne we
opted for this cruise
rather than a fly cruise

it was lovely...

night cruise to Antwerp

CRUISE & MARITIME VOYAGES / Marco Polo / British Isles
By Godliman, Slough on 23rd Apr 2012 This was a special
itinerary in celebration
of Ocean Liners of old,
but we sailed during the

CRUISE & MARITIME VOYAGES / Marco Polo / Europe
By Hywharf, Sheerness on 15th Apr 2012 We have just been on the
Easter cruise to France
and Guernsey. We got a
last minute deal. To be
fair "you get what you
pay for". It is not at
the high end of cruising,
but it was pleasant...

By Goodwin, Caterham on 13th Apr 2012 I did have some
misgivings about booking
a holiday on the Marco
Polo as I had read

CRUISE & MARITIME VOYAGES / Marco Polo / Northern Europe
By Maria, Egham on 11th Apr 2012 Marco Polo is a smaller
ship, which is what we
had wanted when booking,
but cannot be described
"luxurious" or
"sophisticated" (which we
also wanted)! Showing its
age in cabin fittings etc
which...

By Gill, Derby on 10th Apr 2012 I read some adverse
reviews about Marco Polo

CRUISE & MARITIME VOYAGES / Marco Polo / Mini Cruises
By Malcolm Oliver, Grays on 27th Mar 2012 Older/smaller ships have
a friendliness and
intimacy that mega-ship

emulate. Smaller ships
are also easier to
navigate for those
passengers with mobility
