Review summary

I waited a year to take this 19th anniversary cruise and the only thing I enjoyed was my husband, the presentation of my gift and the dream photos I wa ver displeased with the last two days of the cruise the ride back was noisy, bumpy and overall made the trip terrible. There should have been a refund returned

Greg Cheryl you were correct about the pictures . The prices are now over the top. At. $19.95 a picture being the cheapest . When we stArted cruising they were $ 2.75 . Paper hasn't gone up that much .

You had negative reports of your ports too. It sounds like cruising may not be your thing. I took the same cruise last May and enjoyed every second. The crappiest cruise day beats any day at work. Just my opinion hope your next vacation goes much better

You should try a higher end cruise line. Carnival has value pricing, and the do a great job for the price.

Wow you didn’t have fun. Did you Try. Being with your husband should have made it Great. Even if you didn’t leave the Room. Hope 20th is better
