Great cruise to Spizbegen and Norway.
It would be difficult to fault anything.
Food,Staff,Guest speakers the ship were all A1.the staff in particular are a credit to P and O.Always willing and had a ready smile.Well done.
Not one for formal dining the Conservatory was most welcome,We ate the for every meal including Evening Dinner.The Evening meals in particular were varied and top quality.The chef and cooks there deserve a medal.We had a table to ourselves every night and could eat any time between 7 and 9 pm.[note this was not the grill so no extra charge]
Did not go to any of the shows but I heard good reports.
The only slight fault was some of the ports of call.On a positive note Spitzbergen,Molde Eidjford and the fjord cruise exceeded expectations.On the other hand we found it hard to appreciate,Tromso,Tronheim and Stavanger.The sail out of Tromso however was impressive in terms of scenery however.
The bar prices were excellent value.£2.45 for a pint of Stella.£2.25 for a good quality real ale in a 500ml bottle.
A great holiday and I would certainly sail on the Artemis again.
