Review summary

With this cruise I traveled with mobility issues and the embankment went well. I ended up having to rent a wheelchair which changed everything. The change in our second port was bad because their were 5 ships in this port and the dock was very long so therefore I had to stay on board. I understand the need for a change in ports but not with 5 ships in one port that is to many people. I only got to eat in the dinning room one time, we had eat our dining time and they were rude and told us they didn't have room for us. On dismemberment was awful, I ask how I was to return the wheelchair and was told to go and someone would take me off board and them someone there would take me on through. Well I sat and waited and was told to move along and I had to wheel myself all the way through customs . I ask ever person I saw to help and take the chair for return finally security took it and said they would get it returned. Through all the steps of getting off ship everyone would just say; Well someone should have helped you from the ship. Well I knew this but they didn't and this person didn't do anything to help me. I was very disappointed in my whole adventure so much that I think this might be my last cruise adventure.

Being in a wheelchair I was greeted by a pusher and he took me all the way to the ship and dropped me off. Couldn't have ask for anything better.

Only ate once in the main dining room and it was okay. The Lido buffet were good but it seemed to have about the same thing over and over. I wish room service had more of a selections.
