MV Van Gogh Caribean cruise from Falmouth

Hello
Has anyone been on the MV Van Gogh, my mom is planning a 30 day caribean cruise with Choices for a really good price £999. Mom tried to book the Oct 05 cruise but has been cancelled and they now offer Jan, Feb or Mar. Is the ship any good?

Van Gogh

You may be wise to look at the reviews of this ship on another web site as i could not find one on this web sitewhich is
http://www.ship-happens.co.uk
I was looking at this one because it sails from Liverpool sometimes but the reveiws I saw on the above site put me right off.

Van Gogh - Anyone know anything about this ship

Anyone know anything about this ship. I've seen a few adverts and the prices are very cheap.

I believe it features in the Cruise Reviews on this site .... but has mixed fortunes!

I have a friend who was on it and did not enjoy the experience. Apparently the Russian crew were lovely but everything else wasn't. She also swore it had a list and then reading the trip reports on http://www.ship-happens.co.uk http://www.ship-happens.co.uk/cgi/reviews.pl?action=pop&id=310 , explained why!

Can't find anything on this site but thanks for the link. As you both say very mixed reviews, but also very cheap prices.

Have a look http://www.travelscope.co.uk They do these cruises.

When I had a look the prices were cheap untill you went into the actual cruise, then the "add ons" were very expensive,

Just take a look at the site, then you will see what I mean.

Also, a lot of the cabins available were with bunk beds.

Regards, Marn.

To change the subject slightly, what did you think of the Van Gogh please?

The Van Gogh was really great. First cruise we had ever been on and booked the Athena cruise before we got home. The staff couldnt do enough for you and the food is as good as we have ever had in a good restaurant. The ship is a bit bumpy if the sea is rough as it was originally a car ferry so its a bit flat bottomed. If you like small and friendly its hard to imagine anything better.

Thanks for that, will take a closer look at their adverts.

mv Van Gogh - Travelscope Summer Sunshine Cruise

Has anyone been on this cruise/ship since the virus outbreak in May? Looking at their brochure and thinking of taking the Summer Sunshine cruise in August 2007with my 11 year old son. Looked at the Cruise Reviews, good and bad comments.

Would appreciate any feedback from anyone who has recently been on the ship with Travelscope.

Thanks.
