Review summary

Lovely ship, great crew but the Japanese itinerary isn’t for everyone. Particularly if you don’t want to eat fish, sometimes nasty, cold fish every meal. Clearly, as an American, I was in the minority, and the catering was for the vastly majority Japanese population. Nevertheless, I had difficulty finding something to eat anywhere outside of the specialty restaurants, and the Buffet was almost useless. If you want to eat western food - this Japanese itinerary isn’t for you. Love the bidets though.
