The Costa Cruises' Splendor offers decent value for money, but the two stops in Marseille, Italy, felt a bit repetitive.

There is room for improvement in online checking.

I accompanied my mother on a cruise trip, and booked all services through Ctrip. Since it wasn't a group tour, we had to book each part of the itinerary ourselves. However, Ctrip's service was comprehensive and attentive; they were very helpful with any questions and provided answers quickly. The cruise itself was excellent. The itinerary's duration was quite reasonable. However, the shore excursions focused more on city views; more natural scenery would have been better. It's essential to book shore excursions early, as good options fill up quickly. Overall, it was a very good trip, highly recommended!

Thanks to the captain's wise decision, although our journey was shortened by a day, everyone on board arrived safely and happily.

My first cruise experience 🛳️ was generally quite good. 1. Accommodation: I chose a triple ocean-view room. Each person had their own single bed, the bedding was comfortable, and the room was cleaned promptly. I slept well every night. 2. Dining: The first day of boarding involved a long processing time, especially during the holidays when things were very slow. After boarding, I had a quick dinner in a long queue. The food was very average. We ate on the 9th floor, and the dishes were placed far away; I had to stretch my arm to reach them. My first meal was a poor experience. Later, we ate on the 3rd floor. Breakfast and lunch were buffets, but the selection was limited and the taste was average. Dinner was à la carte, mainly Western food, which was a good experience. Each dish was carefully plated and presented, and the taste was good. I felt treated with care. 3. Entertainment: The ship offered a variety of entertainment options. A daily newspaper was sent out and placed in the mailbox outside the room, clearly showing the day's activities. The ship's performances were excellent and worth seeing. 4. Itinerary: The Sabah experience was the best. There was a welcoming ceremony upon disembarking, making the disembarkation process very smooth. The Nha Trang docking experience was the worst. It docked at Anna Marina, requiring shuttle boats to ferry guests ashore, which was extremely inefficient. With over a thousand passengers, only 2-3 small boats were deployed. Some guests didn't disembark until noon, and could only briefly look around the shore. Chen My Port in Vietnam is very far from the city center, docking at 2 PM, leaving little time for shore excursions. 5. Onboard Expenses: It's best to carry cash (USD, RMB) and a linked credit card; otherwise, the front desk always has long queues. Overall Experience: Overall, it's still quite good, a top choice for leisure travel during the Spring Festival. Doing your research beforehand can save you a lot of trouble.

The service on the cruise ship was quite good, and the shore excursions and tour leader service were also excellent.
