Review summary

Service was great.

Had a problem with choosing Open Dining. Got assigned 8:15pm seating and had uncomfortable 2 days before getting at least the earlier (6:15) seating.

Cruise ports very crowded with at least 4 other cruise ships each port we went into which made it like rush hour.

Saw many happy family groups and realized how great a cruise was for multi-generation gathering.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Great selection but not always the best flavors.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Not enough variety.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

What there was at the theatre with the band, dance troupe and singers was great but not each night. Think daily movies in the theatre would be great plus cribbage or other cards would be nice.

Did an off cruise tour on Da Party Bus which was great. Colorful yellow bus without windows toured both Dutch and French areas of the island; stopped at 2 beaches; 4 drinks per person (got the party going for all age groups)

Thumbs Up 4

San Juan, Puerto Rico

3 out of 5

Did an off cruise tour in an airconditioned van of Old and New San Juan. Very interesting but Old Town San Juan was too crowded to make it a place you could comfortably walk around. Heard that the Rain Forrest was the trip to do.
