Review summary

We were disappointed in Princess as we were expecting more from them.  We have been on many cruises and this was the first time n Princess and had heard many good things about them. Visiting the cities at the port of calls and seeing the other cultures, building architecture and the different foods was great.  There was a problem at Rio getting off the ship for some reason, they never really told us why,  were were delayed several hours. Princess seems to be more interested in taking advantage of a captive audience than really showing that audience a good time. Prices for things on board are more than they need to be. Entertainment was less entertaining than we had seen on other ships, there were exceptions. Service was blah, with a few exceptions, not as friendly as on other trips we have done.
