Was a great rest from driving. Played bingo, golden egg scavenger hunt, face painting and more... the kids and I loved it. Thank you!

FABULOUS as always. The Badger Bingo comedy act is sillier than ever. Loved the dance routine they did. �� HAPPY Sails ��

What a great way to travel. Very relaxing the entire journey. Staff was friendly. The ship is clean. The time just floated by. I'd do it again.

What a tremendous piece of history! A real, live, coal-fired, steam ship driven by compound reciprocating steam engines. The last of her kind carrying passengers on a daily basis. A tribute to those who crew her and those who had the vision to preserve her for, hopefully, many generations to come.
