Just returned from our Pearls of the Agean and Adriatic Cruises. Our party of 6 had a fantastic time on a spotless happy ship. From the Captain down, each and every crew member worked very hard to ensure all passengers were totally happy. Its a pity that the vessel is being... more

What a fantastic cruise! I was a little concerned given the comments in 2006 about the Emerald, but the more recent ones put my mind at rest. The ship, although old, was spotless, the food excellent. The comments about the food in the buffet not being hot enough at times... more

Have only just returned from this cruise and have no hesitation in making a recommendation of this ship. The itinerary was the obvious reason for choosing this holiday which would have taken in Beirut and The Lebanon, and it was only because of the Foreign Office's advice... more

This was our first experience of a cruise, and we couldn’t fault it at all. I can’t understand people moaning about not having food 24hrs a day, there is far too much food to consume as it is. We had an outside cabin which was quite basic, but as you are only in it to... more
