Did not like being charged for everything. An up charge of $12/$29 pp to eat in the special restaurants. Port fees! Gratuity for each drink! We paid for the cruise and you charged us $ any time you could.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The Muster drill could use some work! The people that arrived early or on time sat in the back of the theater. We had to wait for the late people and then they dismissed them first! A terrible long, inefficient wait!!!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Food was great. Dining was wonderful as we're the buffets. BUT my husband bought the soft drink package, they ran out of the travel cups that he could refill. We went to another station and they said they couldn't give us one because they each had to do an inventory for their selling station! Also one night he asked for a diet sprite and the waitress said they only came in cans and his sticker was just for fountain drinks. Isn't a soda a soda? Apparently not!
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Plenty to do but an inside theater would have been nice since Movie under the stars were freezing every night.
Entertainment
1 out of 5
The magician was very good in the lounge. But when he did it within the play BAD!! The comedian was very good both times. The singers were horrible? The lead female had a bad voice and botched every song , the male singer was trying to be comedic but insulting people about going to the buffets? Not funny. You're a singer so sing and update your songs. 4 Tom Jones songs way too much! And the other artists no one had ever heard of except Neil Diamond.
Children's Programs
Did bring children
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Always so polite and friendly. Except for our ding room waiter! Never smiled, never tried to have a conversation with us. Would have enjoyed ding room more with a personable waiter.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Indoor theater recommended.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Very comfortable but the bunk beds on the wall even though they were closed were still in the way of getting in and out of bed. Bathroom was nice and great amount of hangers.
Ship tip
Book you tours ahead of time because they cost more if you book on the ship! They nickel and dime you for EVERYTHING, so be prepared.
There was a tall ship where we needed to port so never made it to shore. The 1 of 3 places were really wanted to see. Think ship should reimburse $100 per person for that! We got $6 for no port fee!
Great port. Did the Victorian walking tour. She was excellent!! Great history and very conscious of the people in her group if she need to slow down at all. EXCELLENT.
Was put on an earlier flight so had to leave at 4:00 am. It was empty. Ship did reimburse us for the transfers we couldn't use because of the early time. That was ver unexpected and generous. We did have to pay for a taxi so it equaled out.,
Who chose to eat in the speciality restaurant(s)... instead of at any off all the other free places to eat???? Tipping for drinks (yes, each one) is common practice.
