Review summary

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Did not know what to expect but it was very well organized.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Not as good as I had heard. The Lido buffet was actually better than the main dinning room. Main dinning was very average. Specialty ones are great but booked up early.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Pool is very nice on back of ship but finding a char is quite the task.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

B B Kings band was just excellent!!!! As was Lincoln Center artist. Dueling pianos..one was very good and the other guy was excellent. Both very good together. We did not care at all for the rock band. I don't think they have had time to jell yet.
