Review summary

This was our 4th cruise with RC sailing out of Galveston.  We always enjoy sailing with them.  The crew, food, facilities, excursions are always very good.  We did think the Navigator was showing her age a little, but RC is pulling her for an overhaul and replacing her in Galveston with Liberty.  RC appeals most to a middle aged and older crowd which we like much better than a rowdy, noisy, late night crowd.  They're also great for younger families, too, as they're kid's program seems to be quite popular.  We found no need to eat in any of the specialty restaurants as the main dining room always offered good choices and great service.  I know we will go on a RC cruise again.

We didn't travel with any children; however, watching other younger couples with kids, they seemed to enjoy and appreciate the onboard kids programs.-

Good location - relatively easy to walk to other decks, up or down. Always love having the balcony.

Ship tip

Whether it's the Navigator or any Royal Caribbean ship, the crew from cabin steward to dining room table waiter have always been fabulous. Ask and ye shall receive-with a smile. We asked that our room always have the ice bucket filled for the evening-no problem. Be sure to eat at Johnny Rockets-fun

We are doing this same cruise out of Ft. Lauderdale on 1/3. I'll be interested to see what updates they make to her. I did notice she was older but it fit our timeframe and ports we wanted to visit.
