Review summary

Crystal continues to provide a first rate experience. We have done several including Europe and Antarctica, and we always came away very happy with our experience. We have tried other cruise lines, but none have measured up to the quality of Crystal.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Lectures by Roger Mcguinn of the Byrds were fantastic. His life and those he befriended along the way were fascinating. Also, the magicians who demoed there crafts and held instructional classes were great fun. I can even do a few of the tricks we learned. Excursions to the rainforest and snorkeling were fun. Health conditions were always kept in mind.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Singers and dancers put their all into each production. Musicians were wonderful, and the audience certainly seemed to like it all.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Crystal’s staff is always top notch. The rooms were made up twice a day, and you just turned on the light when you left, and the room was done upon your return. Waiters got to know you if you were a returning guest at a given eating venue. Four specialty restaurants, a casual grill and the traditional dining room made for so many great choices.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Hand sanitizer everywhere, and before entering any eating venue, every one was asked to use it.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

A little small, but ok for this length of trip. We enjoyed sitting on the verandah during the at sea days.

Ship tip

Crystal treats you like a VIP. Sit back, relax, and let them spoil you.

Agreed… Crystal is top notch. …sailed in October for the first to with Crystal on Serenity and scheduled to cruise same itinerary on the Symphony in 5 weeks. The safety protocols are superior.
