Hermes Cruises

Very friendly and helpful staff and trip was very well organised. Luxury cruise, very comfortable family connecting room, delicious food. Bravo to the whole crew. And special thanks to Chi, who guided the tours and also did the Tai Chi class. Greetings!

Staff were super friendly and accomodating. Smoothly run activities. Beautiful boat and facilities. Food was good!

Nothing - it was all great!

We spent two nights aboard a beautifully renovated older ship, full of charm and character. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to the Royal Suite, with a large, very comfortable bed and pillows. The furnishings throughout the boat were lovely, adding to the overall experience. The food was delicious, with multiple courses at each meal, and the restaurant staff were exceptional—nothing was too much trouble. The tour team were also fantastic, especially during the visit to the amazing cave, which was a real highlight. On the second day, you’re transferred to another boat for a full day of exploring. It was a great experience heading further out, leaving the other boats behind and really taking in the peaceful landscape and natural beauty.

The music in the bar was very loud, more like nightclub-style, which didn’t really suit the majority of guests who were in the 30–70 age range. We did ask for the volume to be lowered and for a different style of music so we could chat, but unfortunately it didn’t last long. There were also a lot of boats in the area, which took away from the overall experience. But this had nothing to do with the ship

Great atmosphere on the boat, super friendly staff and not too many guests on the boat which made the trip very calm and ‘family’ like feeling. Lovely rooms and great food.

Great boat with beautiful rooms with balconies. Very attentive staff. Food was delicious. Scenery amazing. Tai Chi on the deck in the morning. Squid fishing at night.

Staff were a little pushy with drinks which were not included. Disappointed that we did not "cruise" more. We seemed to head into the bay then put down our anchor, did a couple of excursions in the afternoon, one in the morning, then lifted anchor and returned to port. This seemed to apply to all the cruises. Don't know if this is mandated by the government. We also seemed to do all the excursions at the same time as the other boats which meant very crowded sights.

The boat was lovely, dining area very sophisticated. Food was delicious with plenty of variety. The balcony in the room was large with great viewing & private. Bathroom huge for a boat, water pressure great too. Not too many people, very quiet, no waiting for food or getting on, tender to day trip. Mr. Tommy gets a special mention for being so attentive!

My cabin was beautiful - loved the panoramic views from the balcony

A few more ‘western’ dish options at the buffets perhaps, for fussy kids!
