Review summary

Overall we had a memorable trip because we were able to spend time with our family and loved ones. However, it wasn't nearly as smooth and comfortable as other cruises I have been on. Average food, average entertainment, average service.

The final show was horrible. Not kid appropriate and a huge let down. Most of the other shows were entertaining and the musicians on board were very talented.
