Feature of Best Dinner Cruise:
Some call it the Time Dining Room, while others call it a personal choice or freestyle dining. Instead of giving guests a fixed dinner time, they can dine with their favourite people, when and where they want.
Flexible dining options allow guests to choose when to eat daily in the main dining room on board, allowing guests who want to spend more time at a particular port of call to spend the day more flexibly.
Casual Dining-If guests don’t want to dress formally at dinner, there are casual dining options. Most cruise lines serve casual meals, which are buffet-style dinners, and can also be ordered from the menu with table service (evening). This is a great option for guests who don’t want to worry about packing formal wear.
Alternative Dining: Most cruises have a free dining room and buffet, as well as several alternative restaurants. These specialty restaurants offer guests a more personal experience, along with menu items not found elsewhere on board, but most of these locations have an additional charge. A variety of specialty restaurants and cafes on old and new boats are sufficient to pamper guests throughout the cruise.
Healthy Choices: More and more cruises are offering low-fat and low-calorie light meals for those who are worried about their diet. All cruise lines offer alternative healthy or spa menus. Therefore, if guests want a low-fat, salt, cholesterol, vegetarian, or another low-mix diet, they are available. However, if you need a special meal, it is recommended that you notify the cruise line in advance.
Our Conclusion:
We really enjoyed our dinner cruise on the River Thames. The food was really very tasty and delicious and alcohol was also available unlimited for the wine lovers. The crew was very friendly and helpful to every kind of visitor. The whole experience was unforgetable.
