Review summary
I did not enjoy this cruise I found there was hardly any choice for me to eat as I'm a vegetarian. There was all kinds of meat dishes even the macaroni had ham in it. Plus Royal Carribbean told my husband that we had to have an excursion booked to be able to go into Havanna this was not the case. Other people said they were told the same thing. The excursion we went on was terrible. We drove around on the bus way too fast so you couldn't see anything. We spend far too much time in a cemetery. Then on to a fort that was closed so we were crushed in a small room to buy cigars. This process took far too long. The tour guide forgot our vouchers so we stood around in the hot sun. They took off leaving people behind so we had to go back for them. Waiting around for people in the hot sun was terrible. In the end we ditched the tour and looked for something else to do. In order to see Havanna we hired a private tour in one of the old cars. I've already told lots of people I know not to take a tour with Royal Carribbean just organize their own tour.Embarkation
