Review summary

Having cruised with princess many times, I can see many cutbacks. Happy hour was a great gathering point for people traveling with others. That is gone. Pool game favorites are gone. Low budget entertainers. No hot food!

New river excursion was too long. They took too much time killing time on the river. Then a long bus ride back.

it depends if you are cruising for the ship or for the ports - we went for the itinerary so we were more able to dismiss some of the inconveniences of an older ship

You gave a lot of 4 star rating for a cruise that you claim you did not like so much. Why not rate it lower if that's the way you felt? Not a criticism, just wondering.

Surprised to hear of your issues. Did you let any of the staff or passenger services know?
