Review summary

My children and I travelled on the Jewel of the Sea to Halifax, Nova Scotia. We had two staterooms . Although we were offered an upgrade, we didn't take advantage of it. We had an inside room and would have enjoyed the view. but we all agreed to stay put. This was my third cruise, my second with Royal Carribbean. I liked the decor of the ship. The activities on the ship were enjoyable. I liked the way food was presented. We sat down for dinner as a family. but enjoyed the buffet for breakfast (& lunch if we were aboard ship). There was a nice variety. All staff was courteous, helpful and pleasant. The shows after dinner were most enjoyable.I especially liked the gym (treadmills & machines as well as the free weights) My family took advantage of this everyday.

We took a Grey Line city tour. I think it would have been better if we took a tour where the bus stopped and we could stroll around some of the places of interest. But our guide on the bus was very good so we got a lot of information about this nice city.
