Review summary

This was a cheap cruise and it showed. Clearly where they saved money was with food. Seriously, spend money for a good cruise or just stay home.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
Long lines. Horrible port. Took over 1/2 hour just to move about 1/2 mile and no way to get out of car before dock.

Main restaurant was worst ever. Dinner almost inedible Sent back dinner each night. Forced to spend $38 each of two night for wonderful steak restaurant really just to get decent food.
