Great experience and enjoyed the ports of call. Entertainment was focused to an older crowd, so we will not choose Princess again until we get to an age where we are not looking for nightlife on board the ship.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Was very smooth
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Main dining room was great. Selection in buffet was limited, as to many pork and fish options.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
We use sea days to relax, but the activities weren't exciting enough to get us to join in.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
Comedy shows were good. Other entertainment catered to an older crowd that left us younger and more vibrant people with little to enjoy.
Children's Programs
We have no kids
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Most staff went above and beyond, but we were left to take care of ourselves too often with staff busy helping the older passengers that really needed their help. We were able to take care of ourselves and felt fine doing so.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
We thought the ship was nice, but still looked dated. It probably looked good to the older crowd.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
We chose this room for the balcony view going thru the canal. Balcony was perfect. Balcony was smaller than some due to the location, but perfect for viewing the canal. I wouldn't choose this balcony for a different cruise. The cabin was plenty big with enough storage. The bathroom didn't have cold water in the sink, which I hated brushing my teeth with hot water. The shower curtain in the tub/shower was always in the way. I'd rather a smaller area with a door than a shower curtain "attacking" you the entire time. Cabin had a great location to the rest of the ship.
Ship tip
Know your expectation compared to the average age of the other passengers
This was the reason we took this cruise and it didn't let us down. Very fascinating how it all works. I would recommend to everybody to experience this.
