Review summary

The ship was beautiful but love the Oasis class best...all ports we visited were beautiful...I think this cruise is definitely for ages 40 plus cruisers, or people who love history. There is plenty to see and do but don't know if I would do this cruise again.

I think the ports, because it was a New England sail... Which I can see. I see them, and don't have much interest (partially because I'm from the North East) and prefer something like the caribbean or Alaska if I were to go North.
