Review summary

We cruised on the 10 night panama canal voyage round-trip Fort Lauderdale. The ports visited we’re princess cays (amazing), Grand Cayman, Limon Costa Rica & Cartagena Colombia. The canal was the highlight - spectacular! No cruise is perfect but the staff worked so hard to make every effort to keep the guests happy and roll with the punches. There were many medical emergencies and at least two medical evacuations on our cruise which created delays - all shore ex were cancelled on debark day (Everglades, etc). Stateroom steward was in point, good was usually a 7 out of 10 and stateroom was immaculate. We bought the photo package/ quality was lacking a little and we had to work to get our money’s worth but we ended up with over 50 photos.

Panama Canal cruises are great. We went just over a year ago, left out of Ft. Lauderdale and returned to San Diego. Loved learning the history of the canal.

Can you say why the excursions were cancelled on debarkation day? We have the airboat excursion scheduled for our September cruise.

I know you did laundry on the cruise, did you use cash, coins, room card and how much is it? Are the washers and dryers regular size? Love your channel, thank you

Bummer about the photo package I was thinking about buying it for our upcoming 10 day panama cruise. How was the quality lacking? Lack of opportunity for photos? Or the focus and lighting of your photos was poor?
