The Bolt and obstacle courses.

Entertainment

1 out of 5

The jubilee theatre shows were awful.

Children's Programs

None of my kids want to go.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Roberto from the Pacific dining hall was great. The Lido deck staff tends to ignore you.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Nope. A lot of empty plates and cups left by passengers all over the ship. Some have a smell to them already.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

The AC was too warm. Called our steward to have it cooler. The size was good and the closet space was adequate.

Ship tip

Do not eat in the Lido deck and find a cooler space to hang out. The ship overall is warm.

We booked a private van and Jorge was marvelous as a tour guide. So worth the price to travel privately.
