Jenny, Head of Commercial, Caribtours.

I was lucky enough to join the Seabourn Ovation for a sailing around Greece this summer. Our Suite was so comfortable, food was faultless, and waking up to a different view every day was magical! The Seabourn team made it really special, the service was fantastic, and they were just so lovely without exception. The TK Grill was a real culinary highlight; on a cruise full of amazing meals and shouldn’t be missed.
