Review summary

We picked this cruise based on the itinerary and we were not disappointed.  All of the ports were very good and we wished we had more time in Copenhagen.  The ship is new and very nice.  We were impressed by the good service in the restaurants and bars.  The food was good but only average.  The ship is a little like the airlines, they want to nickel and dime you for everything they can and that definitely does detract from the service.

Ship tip

The ship will nickel and dime you for drinks - we bought the Classic Drink package and did not drink too much so it worked out fine (kept me on my diet). But, there are only a few mediocre wine choices that were included on this package. If you like wine with dinner, you will be disappointed.
