Beautiful island with very friendly people. Cruise line was not my favorite, could use some improvement.

Review summary

Bermuda was beautiful and fun. New York was a lot of fun. Ship was lovely and excursions were quite enjoyable. Hidden charges for a lot of activities onboard and staff was not very attentive. Food at buffet was the worst I have had on any cruise, and I have been on around 20 cruises.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

They've been serving the same "Chinese food' in the ETHNIC section all week long in the buffet. On their other ships they serve Indian, Mexican etc. Haven't seen anything like that 😔. Glad to hear you enjoyed Bermuda. I'm really looking forward to going there at the end of the cruise I'm on.
