Review summary
We have been on many cruises but this was our first Norwegian cruise. I did not know how I would like the freestyle dining but found it very enjoyable. We ate at 1 of the specialty restaurants and had a wonderful meal (Cagneys). I was also impressed that we did not have a meal in any of the dining areas where an officer did not come by to see if we were enjoying our meal - they were very visible throughout the cruise. We chose this cruise because of the itinerary. We had not been to 3 of the ports. We enjoyed each one - but Belieze was the best! We chose the Sharks, Rays encounter and LOVED it. We have swam with rays, snorkeled many times but this was a fun, unique experience. Would definitely do it again! We are even thinking of returning to the Caye to stay for a week. The entertainment on the ship was 5 star all the way. Very diverse and fun for everyone! However the thing that made this cruise a 5 star trip was the cruise director Bobby. He was fantastic!!! He was everywhere - all the time - and always having fun with the guests! Also - it was so easy to get on and off the ship in New Orleans even during Mardi Gras week!
