Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
It was ok, but not the taste or attention to detail not there.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Smaller boat, just not activities of bigger boats

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Professional shows great, small bar entertainment - sucks! Some sound like bad night at karaoke, especially cigar bar, and everyone had to walk through this area to get to other end of ship.
