Tulip Cruise by HAG

Tulip Cruise by HAG

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 2 nights and 3 days on the cruise, the ship was beautiful and new. The room was spacious with the biggest bed I have ever seen, we also had a balcony with a table and chairs so we could sit and watch the amazing view. I think the best part of our trip with Tulip Cruise was the friendly and kind staff. Denny took us on our excursion on day 2 and he was funny charming and very polite. Having him as our guide definitely made the day better. Sarah who was at the reception for most of our trip was also amazing. She was so helpful every time we needed something or had a silly question. I don’t think I ever saw her without a beautiful smile on her face and she also made our trip memorable. Marcus our butler was very friendly and helpful, always pandering to our needs, nothing ever seemed like too much. Thank you Sam and Chris"
