Review summary

Not the best cruise. A lot of large groups. Not much to do during the 4 seadays (only the last seaday was good). Pools were too cold.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Arrived at 10.30am and was onboard 15min later. Best embarkation ever.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Buffet was not very good; limited choice for diner. Tables outside were dirty and never properly cleaned, disgusting, saw a lot of people cleaning there own table. We had the premium beverage package; staff always try to give you the cheaper drinks (like prosecco and not champagne). A lot of the good wines, champagnes were out of stock after a few days.

Onboard Activities
