jo budd cruised on June 2011
WOW!! what can i say. This was our first ever cruise and i was amazed! we stayed 2 nights on this magnificant ship from southampton to bruges in blazing sunshine. The ship was very clean and staff worked hard to keep it that way. our cabin was very spacious and clean with a balcony which was lovely to watch the world go by on. Food was exceptionally good and we were all well looked after. the waiter talked to the children and treated them like royalty and never forgot their names dispite there being nearly 200 children onboard! staff in general were very friendly and happy. The entertainment was excellent too. Iv never felt so well looked after.
my only disappointment was having to go home

V Taylor cruised on June 2011
From the minute we set foot on board we could not fault anything. The room was immaculate and was spotlessly clean. We stayed in a superior cabin with balcony. Rooms were serviced twice a day. Food was absolutely delicious but must say I personally felt a little uncomfortable with how much we were waited on especially placing napkins onto your lap for you. Cannot fault the staff all very polite and friendly. The entertainment was also excellent, a choice for everyone. Don\'t hesitate to book on this ship, you won\'t regret it. We only went on a 2 day taster so we will be booking a full cruise in the future.

Higham cruised on October 2010
We had the best holiday ever sailing from San Fransisco to Australia. Absolutely wonderful crew.
The band was wonderful best ever. The only thing that spoilt our holiday, not allowed to relax do our own thing and dance. The two dancing teachers a husband and wife team, just like on hello hello, all those years ago. They were dreadful constantly there condemning and instructing. We usually enjoy ballroom dancing not that trip in fact I would not go on another cruise if they were there to ruin out evenings.

j atcha cruised on August 2010
Just returned from an excellent 16 night cruise on Oriana, for a family with two children aged 9 and 4 it was fantastic, the kids club is brilliant the staff work tirelessly to make the kids holiday brilliant, it is the only place i have ever been where the children have\'nt wanted to come home. In fact I never saw my eldest child from breakfast ntil bedtime, he made fantastic friends.
This obviously meant my husband and myself could enjoy some time together. The food was brilliant the service excellent, the cleanliness of the ship was without question.
The entertainment was varied and I believe something for all ages.
