What made our cruise unforgettable was the fact that both of our sons and their families were along. We celebrated wedding anniversaries this year: 40, 20, and 15 years. It was an unforgettable experience having everyone together!!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
I am 66 and didn’t find anything I enjoyed a lot apart from entertainment. Bingo was blah, and trivia should have been done with electronic devices. Other activities were more suited to younger individuals. The pools were too crowded. But we liked the outdoor movies.

My grandson 13 loved his experience and made many friends. One granddaughter, 4, had a wonderful time, but the 10 year old granddaughter did not enjoy her activities.
