The lunch we had was really good and came out at a nice easy pace, so you didn't feel rushed. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive. While others left early at one of the stops, we were glad we stayed to the end as we made a further run in the harbour. It was a great way see around the area. The atmosphere aboard was relaxing and we were so to have chosen this trip.

My friends and hi had a great day on our lunch. Cruise food was good. Would've liked more jolly Christmas songs.
