"Thank you so much to all the staff who made our birthday celebration so memorable. We were really impressed by how helpful, kind and friendly the whole team were, and while we were just one of a number of groups celebrating, they made the time to make it a truly special evening. Vivid and the harbour are of course amazing, always, but its the hospitality that sets this cruise apart from the rest!"
