Review summary

The shore excursions to St Petersburg, Russia is a must.

Most of the staff very average, breakfast, lunch and dinner the Windjammer was unimaginative. Really disappointing in quality, taste etc. The better food was in the specialty restaurants. The entertainment also fell short. There was maybe one headliner worth attending his performance.

I was expecting more from Royal Caribbean, I like the cruise line.

Can't agree about the staff - found them to be friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed the food too - the seafood in particular was lovely.
