Speakers & Acts

John Robson

Speaker - Forensic Science

Dr John is one of the most experienced forensic dentists in the world and has travelled widely both investigating and lecturing in odontology and forensic science. He is still active, working as a consultant for police, coroners, lawyers and other agencies and is past President of the British Association for Forensic Dentistry. He has been responsible for training and continuing professional development for UK forensic specialists and has written chapters for various textbooks. He has been part of the training programs for postgraduates, anthropologists, crime scene investigators, mortuary managers and police forces. John was heavily involved with the investigations in the Asian tsunami acting as team manager in charge of all the international dentists and other specialists and more recently the disasters at Didcot power station, Grenfell Tower and the 737 plane disaster in Ethiopia. He received a police commendation for his work on the MH17 air crash and has appeared on the Crimewatch TV program. He also lectures regularly to lay groups on forensic science and historical true crime. They find his talks fascinating and interesting. John spent over 20 years serving as a local magistrate, sitting on criminal cases and on the youth panel. He is a private pilot and regularly plays piano in a local jazz band.

Stephen Garcia

Guest Speaker - Magician and Comedian

After winning young talent shows in the UK and receiving the “Variety Club Trophy” for Magic and Comedy, Stephen soon realised that this was his journey and embarked on his first cruise at 19, performing in production shows with singers and dancers and to this day, Stephen still can’t dance. Stephen Garcia is recognized as one the top Magic Comedy acts cruising…this week! He was voted “Cruise Act of the Year” by his Mum and Dad. Sir Elton John, Tom Jones & Céline Dion are just many of the famous names Stephen has never worked with. Stephen was invited to appear on the “Royal Variety Show” last year but turned it down as he was still fitting his mother-in laws new kitchen. Stephen’s love for comedy has grown rapidly and is a huge part of his performances. With wit and natural topical funniness incorporated into his shows, he creates fast moving, original and entertaining shows with zany laughter. Stephen’s shows are just perfect for family audiences; cheeky but never rude.

Emily Haig

Guest Act

Emily’s powerhouse soprano vocals, spellbinding and dramatic performance and stunning looks ensure that she immediately commands the stage and engages with her audience. Her Classical, Crossover and Musical Theatre programme is delivered with energy and style, covering artists from Evanescence to Bizet to Buble and everything in between.    In addition to headlining with her own solo shows in the luxury cruise and hotel industries, Emily has twice toured as special guest with The Voice himself, international tenor Russell Watson, and appeared live on TV on more than 50 occasions as the anthem vocalist for the nation’s top sporting and commemorative events.  In 2022 Emily performed the new national anthem God Save the King on the Accession Day (10 September) at Ashton Gate Stadium.

“Unexpected Bookimg”

Both girls I talked to were very halpful. No single cabins left but I paid 2 fares and am in a double cabin as I desperately needed to get away due to unfortunate circumstances

Trusted Customer

Excellent service from the time you check in .

“Looking forward to our Norway cruise”

Service has always been good even though the wait times to speak to someone when you can't alter a booking online can be very long. This particular cruise is for 2025 so I am unable to review but I'm really looking forward to the trip.

“Gems booking”

Efficient booking staff, with no pressure only helpful advice.

Ian Burle

“Easy to book myself.”

It was very easy to book the Cruise online, and I did not need to talk to Customer Services (as I had too when booking a P&O Cruise earlier in the year). After booking, you need to set up a 'portal' Online (again, very easy) and there you can add things like drinks packages, parking, excursions from ports, wine or chocolate waiting for you in your cabin etc. All very easy. We'll done, Ambassador.

“Exceptional”

Julie was brilliant

John Barlow

“Disappointed”

Have booked with them in May for the Norwegian cruise which we thoroughly enjoyed. At the time nothing was too much trouble Have booked a 60th surprise birthday mini cruise for my partner. However the embarkation time is the latest time in the afternoon at 17.30 I understand it’s to do with the entrance of where you dock and position of cabin but I did call them to see if we could embark early or even move cabin or have an upgrade No luck. Not accommodating at all.

Mark Townsend

“Foolproof booking”

Easy to book and good discount with my blue light card and was able to book a room with a balcony. Our 1st cruise booking and it was very easy.

Trusted Customer

I spoke with a lovely lady called Emma today. I had booked one cruise for myself and my husband, and then 15 minutes later I tried to book the same cruise for my niece and her husband using the same credit card. My payment spent most of the evening going around in circles trying to process. I spoke with my card company who confirmed only one deposit had come out of my account, And that there was nothing wrong with my card and to try again. After 4 hours of frustration, I left it for the night. I called Ambassador this afternoon. Emma helped me book the cruise over the telephone - using the same card. She was very patient and pleasant. She managed to book the cruise that I had tried all evening to do. Emma also linked our bookings so that we were close to my niece. The reason my payment was processing all evening, was the address on my card did not match my nieces. Once we changed my nieces address to mine, the payment went straight through. Lovely service. Lovely lady.
