Review summary

Great cruise, very relaxing with tons of time to relax, food was excellent, service great. We are all deeply disappointed that we did not get to visit Cabo or Puerto Vallarta and both excursions were cancelled. This is the main reason we booked this cruise, to visit these two ports. Receiving $50 was not enough done by the RC, particularly when at Cabo the cause was not the weather but was due to a complication/mix-up with the positioning of the ship in the port.

Ports of call

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

1 out of 5

We signed up for an excursion, but were not allowed to leave the ship as there were too many waves for the tenders to take off and return. Very very disappointed as this is the main port for which we went on this cruise. It was beautiful from afar, but Cabo was the main point of us booking this particular cruise.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

1 out of 5

Did not get to this port due to a hurricane in the area. Went to Ensenada instead. Very very disappointed as Puerto Vallarta was the second reason we chose this cruise. Neither of the ports we are interested in were visited.

Great cruise despite Hurricane Norma

Great trip despite Hurricane Norma causing a change in itinerary

For the most part the trip was great. Sadly due to a hurricane we had to go to Ensenada instead of Puerto Vallarta.
