Just a few comments to add to the many and varied reviews already here! I really could not fault the itinerary. Even when not in port there was so much to see- Istanbul by night was magical, Corinth Canal amazing, and the Cannakale Straits and many island... read more

This was our first cruise experience, and in fact came about as a result of losing our car in the UK flash floods!

We booked as last minute customers, with the intent of having a relaxing and stress free holiday. We happily left the UK weathe... read more

I was disappointed by the ship this is not a cruise liner and should not be described as such in the Thomson's brochure. It was originally built as a car ferry in the mid 60's and I feel that many cruisers will be disappointed. We all wish Thomson well an... read more

We enjoyed our cruise on the Calypso, mainly because of the ports of call, which were what attracted us to the cruise in the first place.

The ship was actually better than I had expected, size-wise, and our cabin 206 was really quite spacious... read more

Had a really good holiday despite the ship not because of it. Our outside superior plus cabin, 629, was little bigger than a large cupboard and certainly not worth the £84 each supplement we paid.

The bedding and carpet was very tired lookin... read more

The Thomson Crimean Discovery was our first cruise and it was fantastic. Thomson organised the whole holiday extremely well. We went for the cruise (Calypso) and stay afterwards (hotel Nostos) and both accommodations were excellent.

Having read previous reviews of Thomson’s early cruises with this ship, we set off with some trepidation expecting the worst. However we were delighted with every controllable aspect of this holiday.

Ok the ship is 40 years old and has been r... read more

Only one review I read before travelling on this cruise. Not very Impressed, but on arriving onboard was pleasantly surprised!

Considering that this ship is small & quite old everything was sparkling!

Like many other people that have embarked on their first cruise we were a tad apprehensive after reading some of the negative comments on this board.

However we loved everything about the Calypso. The staff were simply superb; the entertainme... read more

We did the two week cruise Aegean Wonders/Ionian Treasures.

Our (inside) cabin was on the boat deck, right at the front, and although the sea was not choppy, we felt every motion of the ship.

This was mainly because of the posi... read more

Just come back from a cruise and stay, the cruise itinerary was great, could have done with more time on the island Tinos.

We were given a room on deck 2, this deck isn't very nice, very noisy when docking into port, the corridor smelt damp a... read more

This was our third cruise, once with sun cruises and once before with Thomson on the Destiny.

Chose this one because of the different itinery. Must say right away that it was the best cabin we have had so far, not enormous but plenty of room... read more

This was our second cruise experience in nine years. Our first left a lot to be desired and it has taken us this long to dip our toes in the water again.

Everything about this holiday was superb. The fact that the ship was the smallest in the... read more

Fantastic holiday. The staff were brilliant and so polite, despite eating morning noon and night I still managed not to put too much weight on.

The entertainment team were great due no doubt to the entertainments manager.

We were very worried about our cruise after reading other peoples comments but we had a fantastic time.

Our cabin 615 was bigger than the one we had on our last cruise on the Thomson Destiny, and although we didn't see our cabin steward she ... read more
