Review summary
This was our 1st cruise and it didn't disappoint. Norway is stunning and the people very friendly. Yes it's expensive over there but we didn't mind paying. Just to give an idea of pricing, we went to Starbucks and for two coffees and two sandwiches it was £25.00. Bottle of water around £4.50Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Horizon Restaurant
We ate here at breakfast time. Very busy as you would expect. Food was plentiful and of good quality
Lido Bar
Service was very good here
Epicurean
We paid for afternoon tea here. The service here is on a totally different level. This is top notch. From the moment we entered all of the staff lined up to take you to your seat. This is a must to do
Sunset Bar
Loved this place, as this is where we met some really lovely people
Sindhu
What can I say. I had heard lots of positive comments on Sindhu and they were true. Food was outstanding aswell as the service
Peninsular Restaurant
1st class food and service was fantastic
The Market Café
The cakes were yummy here and not badly priced
Lido Grill
We ate here twice on sail away days for a bit of snack. Burgers and hot dogs were ok. A winner with the kids that were on cruise
Onboard Activities
Boutique Shopping Alley
The shop down by reception would of got a higher rating but one of the guys called Miguel I think was just rude
Boutique Shopping Alley
Some real bargains to be had here especially on days they sell everything off
Reception
Friendly and helpful. We had an issue of the toilet not flushing, they sent someone up straightaway and this was at 11.30pm one night
Photo Gallery
Most of photographers were very good. There was one guy we started to avoid as his photos were bad
Oasis Spa
Staff were very knowledgeable and put me at ease. I have never had a treatment before. But will definitely do it again
Entertainment
The Live Lounge
Top entertainment with Maxine and her tribute to Adele and Dusty. The Rat pack were awful. Always best to get there very early to get a seat
The Crystal Room
Another lovely place to have a drink and either listen to the band. Or maybe try and learn to dance with the fabulous Ian and Penny
The Crow's Nest
Very peaceful in there all though some of the people were slightly stuck up and would not acknowledge you
Headliners Theatre
Venue was very hot and seating uncomfortable. Didn't spend a whole evening in there
Atrium
Stunning, always something going on, the singer had a beautiful voice
