Review summary

The fine dining served on board were awful....mainly very salty. There is only a specialty dining to choose. This is unlike the Golden and Diamond that we cruise in 2015 South America and 2016 Japan cruises, there were varieties of specialty dining to choose.

the entire cruise was a disaster. We chose this cruise to visit Dunedin and Christchurch but due to heavy fog we had to skip these ports. To us, it is money spend for 10 percent of what we invested.

Although we did the 32 days South America and 17 days Japan cruises, the last experiences put us off our plan for the 104 days round the world cruises in Sea Princess.

As for the food I'm a retired chef and find the food more than acceptable, you are like my farther in law, very fussy and obnoxious. Don't cruise with Princess again I'm sure you wont be missed

The captain of the ship has no control over the weather,its part of cruising, we have missed a few tender ports due to the sea conditions, nothing the ship's captain can do about it but keep the passengers and crew and more importantly the ship SAFE.

I'm pretty sure, no- make that very confident, that the fog was beyond the cruise ship's control...

Princess land package all around Australia then cruised from Sydney to Aukland. Perfect!
