Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Better than anticipated - Balmoral

Several areas had obviously been updated recently, with up-to-date decor and furnishings, and we thought they had a good balance between being smaller than many ships but not so small that it felt that way. We thought the food was one of the best parts, with the service close behind. Both were superb. Crabb, Edinburgh, Jun 2nd, 2019

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year on Balmoral! - Balmoral

There were quite a few cocktail parties plus a very jolly Santa party on deck on Christmas Day and gallons of cava on New Year's Eve. We didn't go to any shows but we loved the crew carol concert and pantomime. Well done to them! Hughes, Solihull, Jan 1st, 2020

Service with a smile - Balmoral

We like the smaller ship, the simpler menus and the excellent service. We have already booked two more cruises for 2020 and 2021. Brine, Kent, Oct 4th, 2019
