Review summary

The weather was absolutely beautiful...perfect in every way at the end of October! Barely and rain (a few sun showers), sunny, temps mid to upper 80s every day, calm water. I will definitely sail in October again. Also, Halloween on the cruise ship was a blast. I couldn't believe how many people went all-out with their costumes, it was so much fun!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The Meridian Dining Room had great food (as always), great service and we were surprised and happy to see our maitre'd was Ahmed whom we had on our last cruise on Splendor! Guys burgers are delicious as were the new sandwiches in the deli...and they had GELATO on the buffet at lunch time, it's my new favorite "ice cream."

We did the Amazing River (Rio Secreto) excursion - it was AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL! It's a bummer that you can't take cameras, go pros or cell phones with you because the pictures would have been priceless!
