Eine kurze, aber unvergessliche Kreuzfahrt von Kiel nach Oslo

I liked

Comment

Wir haben zwei wundervolle Tage an Bord der Color Fantasy verbracht – eine Kreuzfahrt, die Komfort, Effizienz und atemberaubende Landschaften perfekt vereint. Das Einchecken in Kiel verlief reibungslos und gut organisiert, und schon in den ersten Momenten spürt man die hohe Qualität des Service. Das Schiff ist elegant und bietet alles, was man zur Entspannung braucht: geräumige, saubere Kabinen, exzellente Küche in den im Smart-Paket enthaltenen Restaurants und ein stets hilfsbereites, freundliches Personal. Die vier Stunden in Oslo sind perfekt in die Reiseroute eingebettet und ermöglichen es, die Stadt in aller Ruhe ein wenig zu erkunden. Ideal für alle, die sich eine stressfreie Mini-Auszeit mit einem Hauch von Luxus wünschen.

A true cruise ferry

I liked

Terrific ship, beautiful scenery, wide choice of restaurants, lovely observation lounge and library, great evening show.

I didn't like

late embarkation, high onboard prices, cabin TV with more radio than TV channels.

Comment

The Color Fantasy is a cruise ship disguised as a ferry - with all the amenities you would expect from a large cruise ship, but with the easy-going atmosphere of a ferry.
