Review summary

As always, the food is delicious and very well prepared. The staff is always friendly and helpful, no matter how many times I asked if I was walking to the front or the back of the ship. The entertainment was the best of any other cruise line - including singers, dancers, ice skating and even The Unexpected Boys who did the songs of The Four Seasons. All in all, it was a terrifically fantastic vacation.

Our cabinman Iwan Nigel was outstanding - so helpful, friendly, poite and always greeted us by name, always asking about our day. He went above and beyond with his personality and work standards.
