This is a great itinerary to see the baltic. You are able to get some smaller countries in and still see the bigger areas. I would recommend this cruise to anyone interested, it is well worth your time and money!
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The Embarkation process was a little slow, we were told we did not warrant the priority embarkation, so we waited in line for about an hour and a half just to get to the check in. Then once we got to the front they told us we were in the wrong line and should have been in the priority line that we were originally at. It was all pretty chaotic, but they were doing the best they could with malfunctioning systems.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The main buffet was always very busy, but the food in all the restaurants were good, quick to arrive, and the specialty restaurants were amazing. I highly recommend Los Lobos!
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
My son loved the kids pool and the daily trivia was great! There are not a lot of bells and whistles for on board activities, but fow a nice quiet cruise, it was great.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The magician was a little lack luster, but the acrobats were amazing. I highly recommend their show!
Children's Programs
3 out of 5
There is a small area for kids in the Guppy area, but not a lot to do. The best part was the kids pool with the kids water slide that my son could have lived on. This is not a kids specific cruise, but they still had family friendly activities like balloon animal tutorials and origami.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff were amazing, there were a few irritated servers, but the rest were friendly, helpful and great to interact with. Our housekeeper, Mario, was the best!

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Loved the overall room and the fact that we could still have one without a balcony due to having a kid with us. It was mostly quiet (under the sun deck), but quiet at night when it mattered most! Very clean, but right in front of housekeeping, and they kept the carts out in front of the door the whole time.
Not a whole lot here, I think this is just a filler port honestly. It was a nice relaxing day mostly. We walked a little bit to a few shops and then just relaxed on the ship.
I would recommend not taking a Berlin excursion and go to Rostock instead. Berlin is so much to see in one day and Rostock was a delight. St. Mary's is a must!
Was able to relax, get some breakfast in, and disembark when ready with suitcases in hand. They also have a service for suitcases if you cannot handle them yourself.
