Ship Quality

The ship us later our nicely.. its a smaller ship which makes it easier to get around yet it big enough as to not be crowded...it was very clean considering its a older shop...it was well maintained

The cabin was comfortable..everything was kept clean.. my toilet smelled of urine but it was tolerable..the temp in the room was comfortable

Ship tip

It's smaller compared to most of the ships but the fun is Big and the staff is awsome

Ports of call

Mobile, Alabama

4 out of 5
I really like this port..I have been on 6 cruises from here...other than the train that occasionally blocks the entrance for 30 minutes or so...the workers have always been very polite to me... the fog can be an issue at this port..only once so far has the fog delayed my cruise...I usually stay in a hotel that shuttles me to the port so I can't say anything about the parking...

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
I like this port because its real Mexico..the beach is free and the massages on the beach is cheap...it appears to be a poor place but like I said.,it's real here...fishing is what they do here to eat..

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
This is a beautiful place.. to see the real Cozamel you need to get away from the ports..see the real people and eat what they eat..thier only income is tourism..

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Its very smooth to get out and in your car.. just be patient in line..its not bad at all
