Review summary

We had a good cruise and met a lot of friends. Only problems that we encountered were we both picked up a virus while on ship and after being sick three days on ship we're still trying to get over it after a week at home. Overall the Equinox is a good ship although way to many people for my comfort. The ship is not fancy with golden or glass staircases as some others we have been on. We did not care for the Dinning menus as they were really few choices and combinations that were not appealing to us. The one thing we did not like was the constant selling of Specialty Dinning.

Just as we expected. Old homes and lots of history. Did the Hop-on-Hop-off tour and took hundreds of pictures.

New Orleans, Louisiana

4 out of 5
There for Zazzfest but way to crowded. Took a tour including a cemetary. Been to NOLA before.
