The cruise ship’s itinerary includes the Norwegian fiords, the Baltic Sea and the Mediterranean.
The cruise ship features every possible comfort on board: two swimming pools, an elegant Indian restaurant, a steakhouse, a pub, cocktail-reception rooms and a library.
“The Ambience is a genuine and classic cruise ship, the type we know is very pleasing to the sector of the market to which we are pitching it,” according to the cruise ship director, Christian Verhounig.
The company has confirmed that all passengers and crew must be vaccinated against COVID-19 before departure.
