Review summary
My family and I really enjoyed this cruise. We have not been on a cruise in 10 years and were worried that it wouldn't be family friendly initially and that we'd sepnd 7 days in cramped state room. Instead, our balcony suite was perfect and we were pleasantly surprised that there was something for everyone. This ship's cabins were more spacious than others I've seen. Additionally, there were plenty of dining choices for my daughter who has a peanut allergy, I enjoyed the spa and evening entertainment, and we all liked the liveliness of the ship. As for the ports and itinerary, I highly recommend that you book the shore excursions instead of trying to wing it on your own so that you can really see and enjoy each of the destinations. I wish that Norwegian would add Athens to their itinerary without removing any of the other destinations. Venice, Olympia, Santorini, Mykenos, and Corfu were each beautiful in a different way. We will definitely take another cruise.

Ship tip
Book a suite! The stateroom are a nice size if you can't afford a suite, but otherwise go for the suite.
