There were seven (7) of us on this cruise. Including two (2) first timers. When I say EVERYONE had a great time, it’s true! There were some minor glitches. However, the glitches were nothing to complain about nor did they ruin the cruise.

Review summary

There were so many things to do on the ship. We took advantage of all we wanted.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

The embarkation process was error free. Everyone in our group had passports. Makes for smooth on boarding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We ate breakfast in the Marketplace daily and our dinner in the main dining room. Of course Guy’s burgers was eaten almost every day! Lol. We ate at Guys Pig and Anchor one day for the free lunch.

Onboard Activities

Did the comedian shows, musicals, marriage & love show. The shows were Las Vegas worthy.
