The cruise was wonderful, gorgeous boat, fabulous suite, amazing food and a stunning place.What really made it though was the staff, Binh greeted us with biggest grin possible and made sure we had everything we needed. Dat the cruise manager was also exceedingly helpful.Actually getting out to the boat itself could have been better, however that did not detract ..More

We had a 2-day/1-night stay on the Nostalgia cruise and can absolutely recommend it.The food was great in terms of both quantity and quality. As a healthy eater I was worried but the welcome lunch was a plentiful buffet and dinner was a tasty fine dining experience too. Breakfast and brunch on the departure day were both excellent and more than we expected. What they achieve ..More
