December cruise
December
Pros: the French and the rest of us were more integrated than in my earlier cruise with Ponant.
Cons: the land tour in Dubai was disappointing. I covered details in form submitted while on board.
Recommended: Yes
Overall, a fine experience. I hope to sail with Ponant again. A credit memo adjustment should be considered for the very poor performance of the Dubai tour
