Review summary
Likely the worst cruise I have ever been on. Surley crew, ships officers spent most of their time smoking on deck, lack of an effective cruise director, and amateurish onboard entertainment.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
The best portion of the trip, quick, friendly, and ahead of schedule
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The food in the main dining room has improved over prior trips. The buffet on the lido is a grazing station for those that require non stop eating.
Onboard Activities
1 out of 5
Nearly non existent on this cruise. Cruise director was disengaged from the process
Entertainment
1 out of 5
Only 1 band for the entire trip, crows nest band on a 4 month hiatus with no replacement. Piano was open minamally
Children's Programs
1 out of 5
Kids were allowed to sit and party in the crowd nest until 10 pm... no parental supervision was provided
Service and Staff
1 out of 5
Crew members were regularly inappropriate towards female passengers. Reported sexual harrassment of my wife....holland was un concerned
Ship Quality
2 out of 5
Empty glasses bottles and dirty plates were left heaped in front of the Crow's Nest deck entrance for 4 days and remained through disembarkation.

Ship tip
Don't! Used to be our favorite ship...no one appears to be in charge.
You took one of the best itineraries in the world and had nothing to say about the wonderful ports? I would be happy with that itinerary on a tugboat. I can’t imagine complaining about things to do on the ship when there was so much wonderful scenery to see and things to do in the ports.
