Cruise was amazing and awesome in so many different ways. Different experiences at each port, even the ones I’ve been to before. A learning experience from every person we met on the ship. Most importantly, many smiles and much laughter was received…

Review summary

This was our first ten day cruise that allowed us so much time to unwind by relaxing, catching up on much needed rest, and spreading out our activities. It let us know that ten day cruises or more can be beneficial to our time spent on the ship.
