A very enjoyable cruise on a smaller boat. Good for singles. Aimed towards those who like visiting historical sites.

Embargation/disembargation: well organised, much better than on a larger ship. Hotel before stay good but had to pay for evening meals.

Boat: small, lacking in many facilities (shows etc) but manageable and friendly. Sun lounge area noisy at times. Difficult to see stage in main lounge during lecture.

Dining: very good. Good choice. No set time, silver service or help yourself outside - turn up and join table (good for singles).rFree wine with meal. No need to dress formally, not really need coat even ofr captains party.

Excursions: incl in price. very interesting with good local guides. On & off ship easy as only small nos of passengers on aborad . Sea rough when in Taomina making tendering difficult. Free water whenever left boat. need to be reasonably active to gain full advantage of visits to temple sites/ museums.

Rooms: adequate with all facilities. Staff efficient.

Entertainment: no shows, piano player in bar. Lecures on what see during trip using brought in experts (university lecturers).

A good trip and a boat/company I would use again.
