What can I say about Virgin Voyages? I really think their tagline should be, ‘Youdon’t need to be a millionaire to betreated like one’ because that’s exactlyhow I felt. The service is just top-notch,from the lovely guys who look after yourcabin and greet you by your first namewhen you arrive, to the rest of the staffwho work around the ship; they make youfeel special.The ship itself is beautiful, with a realluxury boutique feel. The food wasfantastic, every restaurant gave you anexperience either with the taste or withthe fun that was brought to the table(GUNBAE GUNBAE GUNBAE Is all I will say,you’ll have to try a cruise to understandthat one!) There was a good mix of entertainmentwhich had me dancing until my feet hurtto sitting watching a fantastic show withhold your breath moments in the theatre!Even getting on and off the ship andgetting into the towns we had docked inwas done with military precision and itwas just really easy and stress free. Everything ran so perfectly. For 7 days Ididn’t need to worry about a thing! That tome is what a real holiday is about. Bravo Virgin Voyages…

My experience of our virgin voyagesailing was that it was and wasn’t what Iexpected a cruise would be.I loved everything about it from thefood, excursions, how modern it was andmeeting new friends along the way.I loved the laid back feel of the ship.Although we all got nicely dressed eachnight there was no feeling like it had tobe really formal.I thought the drink prices on board werevery reasonable and all drinks especiallycocktails freshly prepared.Our hosts Andrea and Gemma were veryknowledgeable on everything we neededand wanted to know and were so fun tobe around.The only negative thing about the wholething is my clothes did not fit when Ireturned home.Will I recommend Virgin Voyages - absolutely!Thank you Virgin for an amazingexperience

Travelling aboard the Valiant Ladyalongside a select group of other topselling UK Agents was one of the greatesttravel experiences of my life!Perfectly hosted by the gorgeous Gemmaand Andrea from Virgin Voyages over abalmy week around the South of Franceand Spain in September, all of my pre-conceived ideas of cruising were thrownoverboard the second I stepped aboardthis luxurious super yacht.Welcomed by a DJ with the entertainmentcrew insisting I walk down the runawayonto the ship, champagne flowing, I knew Iwas in for an incredible week - and what aweek it was!!!THE FOOD! You may well have seen thepictures, they don’t do it justice, the sheerquality and endless options are mindboggling!! Pink Agarve - the ships elevatedMexican was my favourite - try thesweetcorn side dish, don’t hesitate, wewere all obsessed!And, no sailing would be complete withoutmultiple trips to the onboard patisserie -go for the Valiant Lady, devour slowlywhilst swinging in your hammock staringout at sea, you will not be disappointed! The stuff sailor dreams are made of.
