Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Dining rooms were OK. Some food was really good, some not really. Buffet was nice especially the lunch time. Lots of delicious sea food.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Trivias are really good. Enjoyed them a lot.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Very professional shows! The only problem some of them fill up really fast, we missed two of them because there were no seats available.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

We had a problem in International dining room. They were not able to accommodate our party of 9 even though we made reservations. We had to complain to customer service and they transferred us to Santa Fe restaurant. The guys in Santa Fe were amazing.
