We traveled on the Amadeus Brilliant and loved it. The ship is beautiful, relaxing and comfortable. The crew and staff are incredible. The are helpful, fun and so kind. One night, we were asked to leave one shoe for each person outside our cabin. Santa came in the night to fill our shoes with goodies! That was only one of our fun activities. See photo,
