Not too much variety, little experience of performers and little enthusiasm by host... didn’t animate people to participate in activities

No children

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

Waiters and room stewards did well, but guess service and shore excursion representatives were unfriendly and showed little expertise helping guess with situations, did not offer options to solve the problems.

Sorry you didn’t have a good experience. I have sailed the Dawn out of Boston 3 times and had a great time.
