Come on board Minerva with Chris as he explores the luxury it has to offer. Minerva is one of those vessels with a history. Her hull - strengthened for cracking ice - was once destined to be fitted to a Ukrainian spy ship, and first came to its home line Swan Hellenic in 1996. She was struck off in 2003, replaced with the much larger Minerva II, but revived in 2007 when the line almost went under. And now, Minerva is sailing stronger than ever, following a multi-million pound overhaul that she underwent in 2011. New bathrooms, new balconies, an extended walk-around promenade deck and a brand new lounge were among the improvements, as well as new tenders that allowed a faster more comfortable ride ashore.
