Review summary

The cruise seemed too orchestrated to sell us something at every turn. You were either being sold gym services, or art or jewelry. I didn't go on a shopping excursion. After to talking to many employee's they made it clear that they worked for little to no money and were there working on commission or to meet someone to get a real job in the states because they had their 10 year visa's to be able to work in the US It didn't make you feel good

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

They seemed dirty, lines were long, people were unhappy and equipment seemed to fail on a regular basis (water, ice, etc)

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
They were so busy trying to sell you things so there employee's could make money (that it seemed like we tried to avoid being out. They were strategically located where you had to walk and you had to either talk to them or avoid them and feel guilty that I didn't want to go to the gym for special treatments

Ship Quality

The layout was fine but there were so many people in common area's that it felt very congested and the main floors were so slippery that I constantly felt like I was going to fall

We just ignore the sales people and do our own thing.

Seems like cruising may not be for you. Many love it, but it’s not for everyone.
