Incredible experience! Felt like a once in a lifetime experience! The scenery and nature sailing through the mountains was amazing. The Mon Cheri cruises experience was exceptional! The cabin that we had was incredible, very spacious, with a large bathroom including a Jacuzzi bathtub, a large balcony and a large bedroom with a big comfortable bed, and a massage chair. We loved the food, a broad variety of food every day (buffet for breakfast or brunch, lunch ) otherwise set menus (5/6 courses) for dinner (once for lunch as well. On the top deck we could relax, enjoy the refreshing perfectly temperature pool and drink nice cocktails enjoying the view. It was a very relaxing experience but also adventurous with a lot of activities that we all loved! But if you don’t want to do some activities you can also stay on the cruise. The best for us was the service and hospitality. All the staff were very friendly, helpful and very attentive. Cherry the general manager also informed us about everything and could always give instant solutions to any requests we had. I especially want to mention Jennie, who was responsible for us at any time in the dining room for all the meals! Even though we had some dietary restrictions, she handled it incredibly well, offering other dishes that we could get instead and that were made as well freshly in the kitchen which made us enjoy the experience even more! Jennie was always attentive, remembered what we would like to drink or eat after the first meal and was always interested in our well being! The cocktails were great too and the bar staff very friendly and professional. Also staying 2 nights/3 days felt like the best choice for us in the end cause otherwise the experience might have been too short and we would have been more sad to leave. Thank you to everyone for this incredible experience!
Highly recommend this cruise! Thank you!
