Ship overall
- More English information
- Some activities could ne done in English! It was frustrating seeing everyone enjoying themselves and laughing and we did not know what they were saying. When asked to do them in English, we were told that they had orders to speak in German which was very disappointing.
- The problem l had was that everything was in German on the ship including the entertainment so we did not really feel included
- I know that the ship was German speaking, however a menu, a questioner and program should have been provided in English.
- I wish that all mein schiff cruise offer even English language programs as people from other countries are there too.
- Wifi issues, would like more entertainment
- Would loved the ports of call nightly brochure to have been available in English.
- food quality and service were more than expected. one could not see that ship was full. the places were not overcrowded as expected. meat quality and meal variety were over the top, even in the buffet. We loved everything apart from Mediterranean restaurant....
- YES. SURE THAT WE WILL NEVER BOOK AN OTHER CRUISE ON MEIN SCHIFF
- The program involved entertainment for kids but we had difficulty reading and following activities in progress as they were in German.
