Review summary

I thought the cruise was great. The food was excellent without going to any specialty restaurants and the service was fantastic. I would have liked a few more activities while at sea and the pressure from the massage salon and waiters to upgrade was disappointing. Other than that everything was great.

Onboard Activities

I felt that more activities should have been provided especially when at sea.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Everyone was great except the duo that did the Beatles special. I think more 50's, 60's, 70's music should have been provided since most cruisers were older.

Children's Programs

No children

Ship tip

The only thing I didn't like about this cruise was how they pushed for upgrading my wife's massage. Also, the same thing about upgrading to a beverage package. I don't drink too much so I purposely didn't choose the beverage package but almost everyone pushed for that whenever I ordered a drink. These two things were the only down about this cruise.
