Verdict

– Cruise Passenger 

– Cruise Critic 

“…5 stops in Scotland and Ireland as we cruised for 7 nights up (and down) the British Isles from Bristol. In Belfast (the first port) we took the free shuttle to the city centre and caught a bus to the Titanic Centre which provided a good 2 hours entertainment. We the caught the bus back into the city to meet a taxi for a pre-booked tour of “the troubles” – another excellent 2 hours. e treated ourselves to a suite and the accommodation and service was excellent with a balcony, sitting room and bedroom, jacuzzi, daily canapes, welcome champagne and fruit and extra options for room-service breakfast. We also had the added treat of being invited to the CaptainÂ’s table on Gala night…”
