    Very good service and excellent food. Some of the excursions were disappointing the Normandy d-day beaches tried to cover everything and in that process robs you of the chance to see a wonderful DDay museum in Asante mer eglise. Half the ef ship had tesirsyiry viruses by the end of the tour and unieotkf seemed unwilling to confine anyone who was visibly sick. As a result my cruise was ruined by this event.

    I had a wonderful time. We saw so many beautiful and historic places, but my favorite things were the reflection of light on the Seine and the fields and pastures of Normandy. Food, accommodation, and service were fantastic. My luggage was lost by the airline and the cruise manager Emmanuelle was very supportive and along with desk staff tried very hard to get it for me. So, I went shopping 😀

    Amazing to experience the Normandy Beaches with Uniworld - They certainly did it the best, our Cruise Director organised 103 white roses to be placed by all of us at the memorial or on the beach with a live bugler, was very emotional and executed so well - great itinerary amazing places to visit - with lovely local food & wine to boot

    The accommodation's in the cabins were excellent, the food was superb. The staff was beyond belief in helping. My son and a granddaughter had allergies and before each meal the head chef came to our table every meal and told them what was perfect for them and made changes where necessary. The alternatives for the excursions were excellent. My wife and I had been on the cruise for the 75th anniversary of D-Day, and this trip was even more choices.

    Went on a girls trip with my daughter, mother, mother-in-law and sister in-law and we had a fantastic time. The ship is absolutely beautiful, the food was consistently great and the staff couldn't be nicer and more accommodating.
