Creator's Key Takeaways

I am sailing solo on Piano Ziona for a five night cruise to Belgium and the Netherlands in March 2025.

It is Β£1580 per person, which I think for the quality of food at this afternoon tea is really good value.

I have never had a bad meal in Sindu.

I would say book early because I believe they book up really quickly.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book dining and entertainment around 14-15 days before your cruise.
βœ“Select table for one if traveling solo.
βœ“Book shows early to guarantee a seat, as they book up quickly.
βœ“If you haven't booked a show, check if there's room just before it starts.
