Review summary

Entertainment was wonderful. Specialty steak house was out of this world. Buffett was okay; alot of repeat dishes and the salad bar had very low quality dressings. The main dining rooms served a nice meal; the quality of the food had changed a lot in the past 20 years; not for the better. Overall, the food was good but i definatley would reccommend the specialty dining venues. Do not buy the drink pakages unless you want to feel you are on public aid. Its very evident the bar & wait staff do not get tipped the same with these packages😟. We had a hard time getting wait staff; ended up getting our own drinks 95% of the time. Coffee is a hole different world; buy the coffee cards; well worth it if you are a coffee drinker, the regular coffee served on the ship is syrup and is horrible. I would also reccommend purchading the water package. We only did once excursion; the shark tank; this was great. The most dangerouse part of the excursion was the van driver who had horrible driving skills before he started texting they went downhill from there. Although he did stop texting once i announced loudly i was not okay with him texting while he was driving. Overall it was a wonderful trip. Loved the cruise director and his staff❤️
