Review summary

Excellent cruise all round. The food is good in the main restaurants and there is an excellent choice of alternative dining venues at reasonable prices. The staff were very friendly and efficient and the entertainment was brilliant. Chose NCL originally as I was travelling with my grown up son and did not want to share a cabin and the studio cabins in Epic are perfect at a good price. Because of the studio lounge for single travellers my son was able to meet up with others of his own age and have a great time while I had the peace and quiet I wanted.Only negative was the price of the excursions but they were good and very well organised. Embarkation and disembarkation were both well organised and speedy.Was our second cruise on the Epic and would go again if they varied the route ports.

Very funky cabin with mood lighting, great glass shower,double bed and plenty storage space at a great price.

Ship tip

Go for independent disembarkation as we walked straight off the ship at a time to suit ourselves. No hanging around in lounges and waiting for your group to be called and then hunting for your case in the arrivals hall.

Ports of call

Barcelona, Spain

Add extra day on at start or end of cruise otherwise all you see is the road between the airport and the dock!
