Overall a disappointing cruise.

This was a bad one for us, bad weather marred the first 2 and a half days very windy ship tossed about a lot.

Could not get out on deck.

Once got to Madeira things picked up a good shuttle into the city and back plenty of time to explore.

No sail always again (although bringing back now) Santa Cruz in the North of Tenerife weather again poor.

Why here is the question south so much better.

Lanzarote Arrecife is a dump very poor place to visit unless you get a tour.

Cadiz is a beautiful place as is Lisbon.

Food in MDRs is poor green beans with most meals no other veg to speak of Horizon buffet and Quays are beautiful food and piping hot.

Sindhu fantastic, as was keel and cow.

No problem with the app booking restaurants and shows.

Entertainment is very good and varied.

Surprised when Ben Shepherd launched his new game show on board.
