On board there are three restaurants, 5 bars, a concert hall, a swimming pool, a Jacuzzi, as well as a gym, its own spa and beauty salon.

There are also two-week cruises to Egypt, short shopping tours to Istanbul and Trabzon, and special holiday cruises. Thanks to the agreements reached by the operator with the Turkish authorities, the number of Turkish ports in both the Black and Mediterranean Seas has also increased.
