Review summary

This is a budget cruise on a smaller older ship. One can not compare the larger party central cruises on brand new ships. However, if you want a low key quiet relaxing vacation. This is your ship. That’s what we look for we don’t want the bar / club scene on a ship.

Entertainment

In this case everything was great except of the girl singers was not a good singer. The rest were great. All I could think is she might have been a fill in for someone who was sick?
