Review summary

After viewing the Norwegian Cruise line on Undercover Boss my expectations on my first cruise onboard a Norwegian ship was very high. I must admit I was a little disappointed. The freestyle dining was okay but there were only a few restaurants to choose from and two of the four restaurants that were complimentary practically had identical menus. Overall we still had a great cruise. Loved Deal or No Deal game show and the Blue Lagoon restaurant. We partied hard at the Spinnaker Club. Traveled with my family a group of 11 from ages 22 to 58.

Youre lucky! You got to experience it. I waited and have been fully paid since November 2015(and have waited 30 years for my honeymoon) but with one major event after another looks like i wont be making it in April:(
