Review summary

I bought the cruise for my husbands 40th birthday! This was our first and we had the best experience!! So nice to just have fun and not worry about anything! This will be our new vacation trip we take, hopefully plan to take the kids as this is a great experience they would enjoy as well!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Check your bags in. Makes it easier and they deliver to your room. Easy process to get in the ship just a lot of check points but understandable why.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Food was great!! The main dining room was interesting because we sat next to people we didn’t know but by the end of our trip we enjoyed chatting with them! We ate breakfast in the buffet area and it was pleasant. It was clean, the food tasted great!

The onboard activities were fun! We played bingo, went to battle of the sexes and a few shows!! Not to mention the casino! It was small but still fun! All very fun!

Go on the excursions! Many interesting things to do, learn about the culture and have fun!! Recommend the culinary tour. We ate authentic bohemian food, went to a distillery, ate some yummy pastries and learned about the culture. Our tour guide was funny and entertaining!! Very enjoyable. Then walked around the town with some new friends we met and did some shopping.
