Review summary

To be fair we have taken this cruises multiple times. I think NCL does it as well as any cruise line if not better. The ports are very familiar and comfortable. There is little that is new for us.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Good. But not as good as it was in Seattle in September of this year.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The restaurants are good with the exception of Los Lobos. We ate a t Los Lobos in September on the Encore and throughly enjoyed it. This was not the case on the Bliss. I will not eat there again. The service was very good.

Classic old town. Señor Frogs has change to rap music only. Disappointing. There are are other good restaurants.

Mazatlan, Mexico

2 out of 5

This is one city I think they could change on the itinerary. Everything is far from the ship and the little that is by the ship is not that interesting.
