The Uniworld trip was very well organized. The ship was clean and the staff was extremely professional and courteous. The hotel in Madrid was well-located and excellent; however, the hotel in Lisbon (Hotel Corinthia) was not. The Corinthia was not close to any of the sites in Lisbon, and the food service in the Hotel Corinthia was horrible -- both in quality and service. When we brought the problems to the attention of the hotel staff, they did not appear to care.

Hary was awesome. Sadly I have to shop for price, but he was so good that if I found a great price, I'd try to reach him to have him book it at the same price. He always made himself available to me, even on his days off, he would respond. LP

My wife and I have been on three Uniworld trips. All of them were very enjoyable. Their facilities and staff are first class.
