Brilliance of the Seas

Review summary

This ship is tastefully stylish, luxurious, keeping the cruise reputation classy rather than the loud, brash, tacky style of Carnival ships (horrendous). I stick with Royal Caribbean. I recommend balcony rooms and don't stress yourself to keep up with all offerings. It's your trip. Do what you want. Most off boat landings only offer clawing, grabby beggars rhat will wrestle you for your money. Be strong.

a nightmare of grabbing merchants leaving you no peace to browse. Huge pressure . Bext prices were on the dock's shops. But for being Mexico, high prices. Why is everything marked in pesos when it's all tourists doing the shopping?

It is annoying when you get off ships to be surrounded by vendors shoving their offers in your face.  I hate it, too.l
